Nancy was very knowledgeable and entertaining! We learned so much, we would recommended this tour! Loved it!

No Kings

Eric_P, Oct 2025
The guide provided a comprehensive history of events leading up to "The shot heard around the world." It was a stark reminder of all of the efforts leading up to getting rid of a king - at a time when we may very well be seeing the beginning of a new king.

Highly Recommend!

Michelle_S, Oct 2025
As a reenactment actress, our tour guide Clair was phenomenal! She was very knowledgeable, vibrant and seemless in her presentation. She did an excellent job of bringing to life a visual scene of the historical sites with interesting details of each one as we were passing by. I would highly recommend this trolly tour!

Depends on guide…. Ours was good but talked way too fast! Great information would have liked to see some of the things we literally flew by!

Excellent!

Karen_W, Oct 2025
This was an excellent tour, and a great overview of the area. Nancy was our guide and was very thorough and gave us so much information but kept it fun and easy to follow. She made history come alive with her passion and wealth of knowledge. One of the top guides we have ever had.

A good historical tour

Douglas_S, Oct 2025

Lexington Trolley

William_S, Oct 2025
Our guide was great. Very informative and easy to understand. Trolley was not very comfortable, knees touched the seat in front of me, trolley needs new shocks, lots of bouncing around. Small children crying hard to deal with.

Educational and fun tour

Patricia_M, Oct 2025
Our guide was engaging and gave us a thorough history of the beginning of the American Revolution in the Lexington-Concord area.

Excellent tour

Danelle_J, Sep 2025
My husband and I loved this tour. Guide was extremely knowledgeable. Full of information. His costume added to the experience.

Don’t sit near the back of the bus

Dawn_H, Sep 2025
We ended up sitting in the seat before the back of the bus. The bus and its creaking is so noisy you can’t hear the guy talking. Might have been ok otherwise.

Enjoyed this tour!

MaryLou_H, Sep 2025

Rushed tour

Chris_B, Sep 2025
Way too rushed. Guide made up time on ours. Got shorted stops and time. She knew her stuff, but was too concerned about being late for her next tour.

Very knowledgeable tour...

Kathleen_M, Sep 2025
Very knowledgeable tour guide! Learned things I didn’t know. Excellent detail into putting you back at the time the events occurred!

Beginning of the Revolutionary War tour of Lexington and Concord

Christine_S, Sep 2025
The guide really knew the details and information about the revolutionary war. Our tour was close to 2 hours. Guide was very detailed.

A revolutionary ride.

Lauren_O, Sep 2025
This was a fantastic tour. Our tour guide was funny, interesting, and gave us a great summary of all the key information. Being able to physically travel along withe battle route provided a level of context we would have totally missed out on if we had tried to visit ourselves and taking a short walk to the old north bridge was perfect on a lovely fall afternoon. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Very nice tour

Irene_M, Aug 2025
