Peter was so accommodating with picking us up at the cruise terminal and dropping us off at our hotel at the end. He is very knowledgeable about Boston and the history. It was so nice to have our own private tour. Peter is the best.

We went to Boston to watch the Maple Leafs take on the Bruins. Since we were only in Boston for 2 days this was a great way to see all of the interesting and historical parts of Boston in a short period of time. Peter was a fabulous guide and extremely knowledgable about the history of Boston. He made the tour both interesting and fun. He even adjusted the order of the tour for us so he could drop us off at Fenway Park when it was over as we were doing a tour of Fenway in the afternoon. Thanks Peter for showing us so much of Boston and answering all our questions. We would definitely recommend this tour to everyone.
