About
At the heart of what we do is a culture of unforgettable experiences and exceptional service. Hornblower Group stands as the global leader in world-class experiences and transportation, with a heritage that stretches back nearly 100 years to 1926. Our journey began with Boston Harbor Cruises, and today, we span a significant footprint across 10 countries and over 50 U.S. cities. Each year, we proudly serve over 20 million guests through a diverse array of offerings including water-based experiences, land-based activities, and integrated ferry and transportation services. Innovation is deeply ingrained in our DNA. We have pioneered numerous advancements in marine hospitality, including the introduction of the first hybrid ferry in the United States, which reduces fuel consumption dramatically. Our commitment to sustainability is exemplified by our launch of the first all-electric passenger and vehicle ferry. We believe in not just providing transport but in creating memorable journeys—transforming everyday trips into meaningful experiences that resonate with our guests long after they disembark.
