More information on Swan Boats

A trip to Boston is not complete without a visit to this attraction. From mid-April until mid-September, you can take a quick tour on a paddleboat decorated as a swan. These tours have been run by the same family for over a hundred years in the Boston Public Garden, which was the setting for the famous children's story, "Make Way for Ducklings". You will understand why as you glide among the hundreds of ducks that call the Garden pond home. You may see a couple of real swans, too.
