We have concluded the 2024 season. Operations will resume in the spring of 2025.

This boat tour takes you on a pleasant boat ride along the upper section of the Mystic River. The boat departs from historic downtown Mystic with its' quaint shops and wonderful restaurants. You'll see "Captain's Row" (historic sea captain's homes), Mystic Seaport Museum with its' historic sailing ships and wonderful panoramic views of Mystic Country as you make your way up the river. This relaxing excursion offers passengers a memorable cruising experience with great photo opportunities at an affordable price while allowing time for the many other land-based attractions and activities historic Mystic has to offer. The ticket price also allows you to visit Mystic Seaport Museum in addition to the boat ride. Guests are delivered to the one of the docks at the Museum.

The Mystic Seaport Express is located at 1 Holmes Street in Mystic, on the dock directly behind the S&P Oyster Company Restaurant at the famous Mystic River Drawbridge in the heart of historic downtown Mystic.
