My bucket is now full
This was a comprehensive, very beautiful trip Scene upon scene of splendor; gorgeous landscapes, streams, mountains & valleys - all adorned in fall colors. I highly recommend this bucket-list trip!
Our tour guide Marquis was outstanding, providing interesting information throughout the route, and suggesting special photo opportunities at each scenic stop. Marquis is very personable & soon got to know all our names & interacted well with our group. His timing at each stop was perfect. He drove well and made sure we were all comfortable. He is amusing & friendly and I wish I had time for another tour because I would request Marquis!!

5 stars for Thach - an excellent tour and guide
This was an excellent varied tour, which did not disappoint. Thach, our driver and tour guide was fantastic; knowledgeable, witty, and a good story teller. I would recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in history and of the separatist founders/ pilgrims who landed in 1620.

My first trip to Martha's Vineyard was unforgettable and loads of fun.
My teen son and I participated on this wonderful all-day tour (10/9) with tour guide, Willy, on the Boston leg and then with guide John, at Martha's Vineyard exploration. We had a fantastic time with both of these guides and their historical in-depth information. I thought each one brought out unique information about the local area, residents and customs.
Will provided snacks and water on his leg of the trip. His music list was relaxing for our long trip from Boston to the ferry. He made sure we were comfortable and stopped for a restroom break. He had jokes that were entertaining.
I highly recommend this to anyone who has wanted to visit Martha's Vineyard and would like a tailored discussion about the area.
One fun fact that John shared was that that the original Jaws' movie was filmed at Martha's. Great takeaway fact as I fell in love with the lighthouses and port. We had an opportunity to eat at local seafood store with delicious clam chowder, lobster bisque and a hot fried fish sandwich.

Excellent tour!
Highly highly recommend this tour. Our guide was Tyler. When he introduced himself and said he had a masters degree in American History and used to be a history teacher I knew the tour would be great. Tyler did an excellent job of explaining the sites in a story format. You will not be disappointed in this tour!

This is a must do experience
Everything was great. Charles is very welcoming, knowledgeable and a true Boston local. This is must do adventure when coming to Boston or even if you are not a tourist. It’s such a fun ride. Bring Sunscreen, hydrate and use the bathroom before the ride.

Great day trip from Boston for history of the Lexington and Concord battles
Coach is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. It is a great tour that I highly recommend. I learned so much, but also laughed a lot too. Coach also has a great voice and pronounces his words well, so it is easy to understand his commentary. Coach has fully researched the battles at Lexington and Concord. He tells you the facts and corrects the myths. My only regret is that I saw so much and took so many pictures of different houses, but didn't keep a log of what I was seeing. Now I am trying to look at my pictures and remember the history associated with each picture. My suggestion to future travelers is to take notes of what you are seeing as you go along to be able to associate them with your pictures.

If you want to see the...
If you want to see the Breakers and Marble House in Newport Rhode Island while visiting the Boston area this is the tour to take. It was so informative and we had plenty of time to explore the mansions and the waterfront of Newport. We saw so many other areas of this seaside town, a couple of churches and the river drive was so interesting to see the rocky shoreline and the homes built with big boulders in their yards that they were built around. Willy did a great job on this tour, he was very informative.

Good, leisurely pace. Perfect speed
The tour starts at the visitor center in Boston Common and ends af Ol Iron Sides. Narrator is clear and precise. It tells you exactly where to go and when to move on from a point of interest. You can go at your pace by simply pausing between sites. Very informative tour. Also, unlike a formal tour with a guide, we were able to soend extra time at places we were interested in along the route such as Warren Tavern, Modern Pastry, and Little Italy. Great experience. Highly recommend this method of exploring the Freedom Trail. We took 3 hours.

An amazing day trip to Martha's Vineyard from Boston!
A wonderful day trip from Boston. Great communication and simple booking process before our trip and the guide / driver was in touch in the days before. Easy pick-up and then a great drive through amazing scenery to catch the ferry. Our Martha's Vineyard guide then collected us and gave us a fantastic tour of the main towns on the vineyard and we were then left with plenty of free time to eat and shop and soak up the atmosphere of this amazing place before we returned to the mainland.
A thoroughly brilliant day with two fantastic drivers / guides - highly recommended.

Great History tour of Boston
This Boston Food and History tour was really great! Nadil our tour guide is a local resident and was a history major in college. He told great stories of the history of Boston. One thing to note about this tour is it was broken In two parts. The North end was first and this was the food part of the tour. Then we broke and picked up other people for the history freedom walking tour. This wasn’t clear in the booking. It worked out fine but wasn’t exactly what we expected.

Informative Tour
This turned out being a private tour for us which was a bonus. Allen answered all of our questions and took his time . The Freedom Trail component was informative and thorough. It was nice to include Beacon Hill to see the homes and learn who lived there. Boston Common and Public Gardens were included as well. History of Back Bay was remarkable.

Definitely worth leaving Boston for a day to do this tour!
We loved our trip to Newport; Lucia was a fantastic driver and guide and made the day really fun with her additional information, stories and tips. The bus was comfy and Lucia had water and snacks for us. The 2 Mansions we went inside were amazing - opulent and extravagant. We also really enjoyed our free time in Newport itself and followed Lucia's recommendedation to go to the Red Parrot for lunch. Also on her recommendation we visited the church where JFK got married and got to see inside. We had a brilliant day, it's been our 19 year old daughter's favourite thing of the holiday. Well worth the time and money.
