Great tour, great guide

Alan_S, Jul 2026

The tour hit the key sites as advertised. Jenny was knowledgeable and also attentive to my wife’s health needs and adapted the pace as necessary. She was flexible with the schedule because of the summer heat, and kept the journey interesting and meaningful.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour and appreciated Jenny's attentiveness and flexibility.

Amazing Lexington -Concord Private Tour

Evaristo_B, Nov 2025

Beautiful tour with lots of very interesting history! One thing was to read about history leading up to the American revolution and the early years of the USA, and another was to visit places were it all started! Mark was an excellent guide and explained things very well. He also was did a great job accommodating the four of us; two of us had mobility issues. He truly enjoined the experience and would not only, highly recommend the tour but also Boston Hidden Gems as the tour company and Mark as a tour guide.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thanks for your review! We're glad to hear you had a great time with Mark visiting Lexington & Concord!

Fall foliage tour

Ahuva_W, Oct 2025

This trip is highly recommended for adults. Even though the tour guide was given the wrong information regarding the meeting point.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Hi Ahuva, Thanks for your review! We're glad you had a good time with Jenny on our Lexington & Concord tour! Regarding your pickup issues, we apologize if you had issues finding your guide. We always strive to give our guides the correct information for their tours. Upon review, we did notice your pickup was at Flynn Cruiseport, which is often operating at capacity in September and October. During those months, information from the Port Authority can change as late as the morning the tour starts, so it is possible that a last-minute change could affect pickup. Although we do not control this, we apologize if it impacted your experience. Fortunately, the Cruiseport is not overly large, so she should have been able to quickly come around to your correct location. Given that you still gave a positive review, it seems that Jenny was still able to provide you with an excellent tour, which is always our goal!
