Top Boston Trolley Tours

This was one of the very best tours we have ever taken. Our guide, Mike, was a fountain of knowledge about all things Boston, not just the Freedom Trail. But his Freedom Trail information was superb and his delivery was both entertaining and educational. We have already recommended this tour to other people and we would do it again ourselves.

It was very convenient and informative. The ferry transporter was very punctual, kind, and informative. Our tour guide on the island was extremely helpful, sharing a wealth of island history and personal experiences, including his encounters with the filming of the movie Jaws and his interactions with past presidents visiting the island.

We had the pleasure of taking the Boston Food & History Tour with Nabil, and it was such a wonderful experience! Nabil was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and very knowledgeable about Boston’s history and food culture. We had a little trouble locating the starting point because the street sign had a different name than what appeared on my map. However, if you find the Registry of Motor Vehicles, you’re in the right place! We started at a very interesting bread company, where we got to try some delicious breads and learn about the history of this unique bakery and its bread-making traditions. From there, we stopped at a local grocery & deli, Salumeria, for a sandwich. We made our way to a pizza shop, Galleria Umberto, for a slice of cheese pizza. The pizza was delicious and had such a nostalgic, old-fashioned feel to it. The day we went was extremely hot, but Nabil was very thoughtful and made sure to bring us to shaded areas whenever possible, which we really appreciated. Our last stop was at a wonderful coffee house and pastry shop, Lavazza, where we enjoyed a cappuccino and a cannoli. Both were very good and were the perfect way to finish the tour. Along the way, we visited many historical sites and learned so much about Boston’s history. Nabil did a great job bringing everything to life while making the tour fun and enjoyable. Five hours may seem like a really long tour, the time flies & it does not seem too long. It is perfect! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great combination of delicious food, fascinating history, and a knowledgeable guide. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend Nabil and this tour!
