Boston’s Politically Incorrect North End Food Tour

Mark_H, Oct 2026

Politically incorrect and well worth it

Anthony was both hilarious and irreverent. Make sure you realize that he’s going to show up late, smoke cigarettes, and curse. Lol his stories about the old neighborhood and growing up in Boston in the 70s were well presented and information informational. We also ate some great food at local restaurants that have been around since the 70s.

This was a fun and very informative walking tour. It was an easy 2 1/2 hour walk. Our guide, David, was fabulous! His knowledge of history and Boston was impressive. He went above and beyond to help me and my friends find our way through Boston after the tour

Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum Admission

Wendy_S, Oct 2026

A fun way to bring history to life

The costumed staff really gave their all to make this an enjoyable experience. Audience participation is encouraged but you can choose to which level. I learnt a lot about the history from the actors and there was plenty of chance to ask questions. The museum was also really well organised and really clever with films showing the history of the revolution which made it suitable for the whole family.

The guide as John Hancock was absolutely terrific. I cannot say enough about him. He was educated, incredibly knowledgeable about the subject, experienced, had total command of the group, and had an endearing personality. He made the tour immensely enjoyable.

Tour of Historic Fenway Park, America's Most Beloved Ballpark

Sandra_Z, Oct 2026

Interesting History

I’m not a baseball fan but I still found the tour interesting. There are LOTS of steps as you go to the top but there is also an elevator. I learned about the long history and the unique aspects of the park. The tour group was very large, probably over 50. Tickets are cheaper at the ticket office than through Viator. Backpacks are not allowed.

City Cruises Boston Whale Watching Cruise by High-Speed Boat

Frances_A, Oct 2026

Make sure you find the...

Make sure you find the line to board and get there early. That way you can choose your location on the cruise. We were lucky to have multiple sightings during our cruise. It was difficult to view everything with the large crowd. Be aware that the winds and water are rough. One of my family members fell during the return trip. It’s very difficult to stand. They need to refit with better rails and be more informative about the hazards.

City Cruises Boston Historic Sightseeing Harbor Cruise

Sheyanna_W, Oct 2026

Discount Offered is Kind of a Scam

The Boston Harbor cruise was great. However, using the Viator app was a bit of a scam if you only have two people. They send you a discount code that you can’t really use since most tours total just under the $100 minimum. The app also won’t let you book two different tours which would give a person enough $$ wise for the discount code. Seems like a pretty effective hook to get you to try out the app thinking you are getting a 20% off when iin reality you don’t undercut at all. Don’t offer a discount if you are going to make it realistically unusable.

A great way to see many of Boston’s major sites in a convenient and relaxing way, especially if you want to limit the amount of walking. The trolleys run frequently, making it easy to hop off and explore and then continue your tour when you’re ready. The narration provides helpful information and history along the way, making this a great option for first-time visitors or anyone looking for an easy way to see the city.
