Unhappy experience.

Maxine_S, Oct 2025
Unfortunate circumstances. I had booked a PRIVATE tour for our 7 family members. On the morning of the tour I received a call that our guide was sick and could we change the time from 11:30 to 2:30. it was an inconvenience but we rearranged our schedule and said ok. I called to reconfirm. When we arrived at appointed time we were told no private guide was available but we could join the small group already scheduled. That group turned out to be almost 30 people. When asked about the refund difference, he talked a credit. I said no and wanted a refund difference of almost $300. We did the tour but felt cheated. I have not received the credit as of today which is a week later. Very disappointed with this experience.

We are an award winning company with letters of accommodations from the Mayor and Governor-Never have we heard the word cheated. We offered a full refund- we asked more than once how can we make it good for you.things happen, first guide at 11:30 woke up coughing and sneezing, we got another guide 20 minutes before tour time he was in an accident. We will gladly issue a refund.

Very detailed guide. He added an extra stop to Beacon Hill area. He knew his history of the Freedom Trail. Add Paul R stop to tour it was near where we ended.

Our guides are the best trained in the Business. Educators, storytellers, teachers and nice people go thru a vigorous training process. They give a tour full of facts and they bring in humor.
