    This is an amazing tour. We received all the information we needed to understand the entire Harvard's history.

    The guide was extremely kind and answered all our questions.

    Would repeat again 1000x times.

    I loved this tour. Stewie was our personal tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Boston. He took us to many different places. My favorite was the USS Constitution Museum. Thanks Stewie!

    Knowledgeable, sophisticated, entertaining, personable, responsive, thoughtful And thorough tour of Boston. Neal covers so much more territory with running commentary than you could possibly do walking or on a bus. Yet it’s not too much or presented in a way that’s confusing about Boston and history. Very highly recommended.

    Peter was excellent, and his knowledge of history and the area made the tour really memorable. Boston is a beautiful city with a rich and colourful history and well worth getting a guided tour

    For us this was the best option to see and learn more about Lexington and Concord. We stayed in Dorchester so we had to find our way to one of the three meeting points in downtown Boston, but this wasn't a deal breaker as getting around on public transportation was easy.
    Richard was right on time to pick us up. His instructions to us beforehand were great. He let us know where to meet and what was in that area including a place inside to wait and places to eat in the area if we needed that. This was helpful.
    Once in the van he started giving us information about everything we were seeing. At this time we were just on the way to pick up another passenger.
    We ended up with 13 total in the tour which is another thing we like as it is a smaller group. Richard gave us information as we went. Not just about the Revolutionary War but about Boston history overall. This was a plus too. Learning about buildings, neighborhoods and the culture made this experience way better for us.
    As we made our way Richard talked about everything we were seeing. He answered the many questions well. He stopped in a couple of places that the big tour busses would just pass by as they were too big to get into. As it was raining he tried to get as close as possible to the stops.
    The overall tour was great. Having Richard as guide made it even better. Our biggest plus was again the information that Richard gave us about everything we drove past, not just Lexington and Concord! We will recommend this tour to anyone who asks.

    The explorer pass gives some discounts which are helpful. City view trolley map not detailed enough. Hard to find stops. Many places to visit.

    Martin is an amazing tour guide. We saw all of Boston in 3 hours and enjoyed every minute of it. He is knowledgeable, engaging and organized. We truly had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back to see Martin on our next trip to Boston.

    Bob was our driver and tour guide operator, very knowledgeable and funny. Gave us important and relevant information about the city, got our entrances and wait for us patiently in the museums that we experienced. Great experience. Thank you!

    We just spent a delightful afternoon with Martin on a tour of the Boston area. Funny, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable (including lots of fun facts that you don’t normally encounter in history books), Martin is the perfect tour guide to an intriguing city. It is obvious that he loves telling visitors about the city and its history. We would highly recommend him!

    The tour guide VIC was amazing. I will definitely ask for her again. We really lucked up. She was passionate, honest and just a joy to be around. She made it fun for people of all ages.

    This was our favorite part of our trip. Peter was a great guide and really brought history to life for our kids. It gave us a great overview of the city and surrounding area. We were able to see and learn about so much in the 1 day that we never could have done on our own. I'd highly recommend this to anyone and would recommend doing it on your first day in Boston. We had kids ranging in age from 10-14 and they all agreed it was their favorite thing we did in Boston! Thanks Peter!

    I used the audio tour in conjunction with the Hop on Hop off bus, so I got the narrative about areas around the stops. No rush, no fuss. It was a good solution and much less expensive then an escorted tour with a bunch of people.
