Boston to Newport Small-Group Day Trip with Breakers & Marble House Admission

C_D, Aug 2026

You should really book it! You won’t be disappointed.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Newport Small Group Tour from Boston! Two days before the trip, I received a call with detailed information about exactly where we would meet, and everything went exactly as promised. We were greeted at the designated location right on time, given our itinerary, and from there, the entire day ran like clockwork. A few days earlier, I had taken a small-group tour to Maine that I thought was great—until I took this trip with Chris! Chris was training another guide on the day of our tour, so we essentially got a two-for-one experience when it came to the tour guides. Both were fantastic! From the historic buildings in Boston to the entire drive into Rhode Island, we learned interesting facts and stories about the landmarks along the way. The trip was incredibly well organized and completely seamless. Although the tour was about 11 hours long, it never felt overwhelming or too long. The time really flew by because there was always something interesting to see or learn about. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone staying in Boston who wants to take a day trip to Newport and experience the beautiful Rhode Island mansions. Chris and the team did an outstanding job!

North End Boston Food Tour: Pizza, Pasta, and Pastries

John_S, Aug 2026

North end history from someone who has lived it

There really is a difference between someone who knows an area’s history and someone who has lived it. Bobby can relate the history of the Neighborhood from experience. The tour was very enjoyable despite the weather. Plenty to eat and taste and accommodation for those who don’t eat meat. I would highly recommend this tour.

Boston's Historic Electric Bike Tour

Louise_C, Jul 2026

Outstanding!

Earlier on our visit, we sent on a trolley tour of Boston and a boat tour on the Charles River. This tour was far superior to either of those tours. Our tour guide, Dunkin, was extremely knowledgeable giving us facts and antedocts that were very, very interesting. He was very conscientious in ensuring that we were riding safely when in areas of congestion and staying together at all times. There were great photo ops which he happily offered to take for anyone. Sena helmets were supplied to each of us which allowed him to talk to us through a microphone in our helmets and clearly hear every word he said on the ride. There was not one complaint by anyone of us who was on the tour. It was the highlight of the day!

Boston Seafood Tour: Behind the Scenes at the Historic Fish Pier

Anthony_E, Jul 2026

Great Tour. The food tastings were an excellent assortment of Boston seafood highlights. Claire was very knowledgeable in regards to the history of the seaport and the food we sampled and an all around excellent and awesome guide. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city.

Boston Harbor Sunset Sail Tour

Marjorie_T, Jul 2026

Amazing experience.

What an amazing experience! Everything was perfect from our purchase to sailing on the Adirondak III. The weather and views were perfect and the crew was amazing. Charlie and Hannah worked hard to get the sails up and then they walk around waiting on you (drinks and cocktails) on the moving vessel so easily. It was an ex Cc ellent trip and we got a lot of nice pictures.

Elliot - Tour guide

We really enjoyed our Freedom Tour. It was a great way to learn about the history and hear the stories behind the places we visited. Our guide, Elliot, was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and did a great job explaining things in a way that was interesting and easy to understand. You could tell she really knew the history and enjoyed sharing it with everyone. The tour was well paced, informative, and enjoyable from beginning to end. We would definitely recommend the Freedom Tour and hope others get the chance to experience it too.

Boston Summer Nights Trolley Tour plus River Cruise

Rebecca_S, May 2026

Fantabulous!

The Summer Nights was fantastic. Bailey was our guide and driver. He shared a lot of history throughout the different areas that we traveled through. He was very friendly and had a wonderful sense of humor. The crews on the charles river was amazing. The guides on our ride explained several of the buildings and the architecture around them. The sunset views were beautiful! Overall , I would highly recommend this experience to others.

Boston Harbor Brunch Cruise

Michelle_W, Apr 2026

Fabulous Staff and Brunch

The breakfast brunch was amazing! And the staff was also superb. The 2 girls working the event were super kind and did everything they could to ensure a fabulous experience. Definitely a 10/10 experience! The only downside was it was a bit hard to hear the narration. But I know the guide was going to try to address it for future voyages.

Boston Sweet Treats Food Tour: Fresh Donuts, Cider & Much More

A hole lot of fun

Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and truly one of a kind — a natural storyteller with the rare gift of making every stop come alive. The entire experience was interactive and full of personality from start to finish. And the donuts? Each one was better than the last — perfectly curated and deliciously ranked to keep us excited for the next bite! Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, flavorful, and unforgettable adventure. 🍩✨

City Cruises Boston 90-Minute Harbor Sunset Sightseeing Cruise

Amanda_T, Sep 2025

Don't Be Late

They are not kidding when they say late arrivals will miss the boat. Boston traffic was crazy and we arrived 5 minutes just in time to wave goodbye to our friends on board leaving port. Our friends on board enjoyed the cruise but said it was crowded and there was not enough inside seating. Moral of the story arrive early and plan for Boston traffic.
