Peter B was our inestimable tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, thorough and gracious. Couldn't have asked for a better guide. Our tour ran long due to traffic but, after we assured him that we had no other pressing appointments, Peter spent the time needed on all the sites along the way. Highly recommend.

Peter was on time and met us in our hotel lobby, loaded our luggage for us! Friendly and outgoing, he knew Boston very well and was a wealth of information. An excellent way to cover a lot of ground and see a great deal of Boston. We finished the tour a little early and so Peter took us to another area of Boston (instead of just dropping us off early), which proves he cares about providing a top-notch service. He even generously dropped us off at the cruise ship terminal per our request (versus back at our hotel). We would have preferred a few more opportunities to quickly get out and take pictures, but overall a great tour!
