Top Boston Historical Tours - page 6

It is a fun tasting tour around the north end. If you take the afternoon tour, I would recommend not having lunch as there is plenty to eat on the tour. Tim, our guide, was a good guy and knowledgeable and fun. The only recommendation I would make for your guides in the future is to have them wear something bright like a red hat or a colorful shirt as it can get a little difficult to follow them in the crowds.

Our guide, Elena, made this a delight—funny and informative, just the right blend. The tour really sets up a visit to Boston, puts it in context. Plus the folks at the Visitors Center went out of their way to fix a glitch with the tickets—very grateful!

I like the fact that the company has their tour guide represent a person in our colonial history and then, speak about the character's history. Elaina, a.k.a., Mother Goose, was early to greet the tour guests and readily showed enthusiasm for the job and tour. We valued the fact that Elaina was truly a Boston native and enjoyed listening to her personal story as it tied into the tour. The history that she provided at the various stops was not only informative but fascinating. Clearly, her experiences and former jobs in the theater arts lends itself well to being a tour guide that needs to present a lot of historical information and background to the tour guests. I strongly recommend using this tour company for your Freedom Trail Tour. Elaina, thank you for being such a GREAT tour guide!!!

The flexibility of this self-guided walking tour was really helpful when we tackled the Freedom Trail on the one vacation day it rained ALL DAY. When we got miserably wet, it was great to be able to pause the tour and step into an indoor venue to dry off a bit. It was also nice to be able to "skim visit" sites which did not hold much interest for us. The ease of hearing the well-informed narration through our ear buds was so much better than trying to position in a tour group in a place where the tour guide would be understood.

Really enjoyed the hop-on and hop-off trolley rides from all of the drivers! All of them were funny and very entertaining throughout the tours. We also really enjoyed this trolley ride options as a way to get to the major landmarks in Boston without having the walk, uber, or bike to destinations for 2 days!

It was very well organised, the staff were extremely friendly and the tour guide was very informative. I highly recommend anyone who wishes to learn about the Revolutionary War that created the USA to check it out. Lexington is a beutiful picture perfect town and I was made very welcome. Top marks 10/10

50,000,000/10 experience, best tour I've ever been on, our tour guide, Justin did a wonderful job of balancing historical information with spiritual information. He was very outgoing, friendly, and comedical. That guy deserves a standing ovation and 800 raises. He truly made the experience.

Great tour with fun history, a lot of food and a nice amount of walking around the city. Katie (#102, apparently 2 Katies work for this company) was friendly, knowledgeable and a great guide. She made everyone feel comfortable and provided a lot of fun history facts about the city as well as its food but was not overpowering. The food was great and there was a lot of it. You definitely do not need a meal after this tour and it is coordinated to almost start with an appetizer, the beans and brown bread and end with dessert. The boston cream pie. All of the food was very good and each stop came with history about the food at that location. Katie also mentioned the history of some other restaurants that we didn’t stop at. There is an option to add two beers to your tour ticket and they space it out well. The beers are at stop one and three. There are 4 food stops on this tour. I have done food tours in many cities and this one ranks as one of the best. I will definitely be trying more of their tours.
