How to get there

We are organizing a group leaving from Sheraton at 7:15. Meeting in the hotel lobby; we are going to use public transportation, but it is already paid, so you don't have to worry about getting subway tickets and so on. The group is going to be guided by the SIGIR staff to the cruise and back to the hotel.

Alternatively, you can spend (on your own) more of your late afternoon in Boston Harbor area, which has many attractions, including various food places. If you choose to do so, please make sure to be at the cruise site on Long Warf at 7:40PM or earlier. We posted a map below indicating the cruise starting/ending point location.

If you for any reason do not plan to leave from Sheraton, you should make it to the Aquarium T Station on the Blue line by 7:30PM and then walk towards the Long Warf. Use the map below for guidance. General directions: take the Green line to Government Center and switch to Blue line for 2 stops to Aquarium Station
