Great way to see the Boston, Lexington, and Concord. Sam was friendly and prompt. The van was very spacious and spotless. It was great to have flexibility in our day too. Would do this again for sure!

      Although this is not the cheapest way to see the Boston area, it is by far the best if you want to see a maximum amount in a minimum time in great comfort! It was just myself and my husband for 6 hours, but it would be cheaper if you have more people to split the cost. Being chauffeured around by Sam was wonderful! He is so affable, knowledgeable and flexible and made our tour a total pleasure! He picked us up and returned us to our Waltham suburban Boston hotel which was very convenient. You can arrange this tour to your liking and stay at any given place as much or as little as you like. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Sam!

      Our driver sam took us to all the Boston historical sites we wanted and gave us good information about each site as we went along. If you’re looking to not have to walk as much and still see all of Boston.then this is a great option.

      Flights got cancelled and got stuck in Dallas and did not make it to Boston due to Airlines cancellation. We were told that we could not get refund because it was not within 24 hour window. We tried to reschedule but company was fully booked for next day.

      Response from Host, Mar 2026

      Dear Shonda, Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about the disruption to your travel plans due to your flight cancellation. As outlined clearly on Viator at the time of booking, this private tour operates under a 24-hour cancellation policy. Unfortunately, the request was received within the non-refundable period, as the vehicle, guide, and schedule had already been fully reserved specifically for your group. That said, our team did make an effort to assist by offering alternative availability for a later date; however, we understand this option did not work with your travel plans. We always strive to be fair and transparent with all guests, and our policies are in place to ensure we can reliably allocate vehicles and staff for each reservation. We truly regret that we were unable to accommodate your situation and hope to have the opportunity to serve you in the future under better circumstances. Kind regards, Boston Preferred Car Service

      Fun, educational and custom tailored for us

      Amanda_M, Oct 2025
      I’ve been on numerous group tours, but this was our first private tour as a couple. We loved that it was tailored to our interests and not your typical group tour that tries to cater to everyone’s interests. Our guide, Curtis, is very knowledgeable on history of the area and we learned a lot while getting not only historical information but asking the questions we wanted to know. It was a great tour and a wonderful addition to our trip!

      Sam is wonderful!!

      Leslie_B, Sep 2025
      Very thorough of early American history. We love history and so thought a review of Lexington and Concord events would be a good idea in days prior to the tour. This allowed for a more in depth conversation with Sam and proved to be a good idea

      Wonderful fun filled day!

      Kristy_K, Jun 2025

      Great tour. Added an extra stop with no problem. Lots of good information. Sam was friendly and very knowledgeable. Whole family (2 yrs to 85 yrs) had a great time.

      Nice experience without much tour

      WENDELL_W, Sep 2024
      Our driver was on time, accommodating and pleasant. He pointed out numerous landmarks in Boston but did not provide the backstories. It was a pleasant ride around but low on the tour aspect.

      Thank you very much for the feedback.
