Excellent Tour! - Tracy was a knowledgeable and engaging tour guide. Prior to becoming a tour guide, she taught American history for 30 years. She knows her subject well and by the end of the tour, so will you! I was surprised at how fast the 2.5 hours went. This is definitely a "must do" on your Boston itinerary.

2.5 hours crammed full of history and great sights - Outstanding guide. Thank You Keira! We learnt so much and would not have covered as much ground or seen the historic sites had we not joined the tour. It was a blistering hot day however Keira knew all the shady places to stop along the way which was greatly appreciated

Excellent Darcy! - Darcy was a fabulous tour guide! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic while also being mindful of the needs of the group. She has a knack for storytelling and I’ve definitely learned a lot about Boston’s history and the journey to independence - especially as I was starting with zero knowledge! Incredibly professional service and 5 stars all round!

Didn’t love it but glad I went - It was hard to follow and not quite 2.5 miles. If you are not a history buff there are a lot of names to get straight, not that I was unfamiliar with the names. Just a lot to digest.
