The trip was amazing and showed a lot of gorgeous Massachusetts coastline. Very informative and friendly guide, David. Probably the best part of our trip to Boston. Small group and intimate tour ith a lot of sights and stories you wouldn't normally get if visiting spaces individually. Pre-planned itinerary made enjoying the trip so much more enjoyable and easygoing without stressing about where to go or when.

Fabulous first person experience with true accounts. I loved the connection of the ‘whole Boston story from pre-revolutionary war through the battle of Lexington and Concord. Beautiful presentation and period characterizations! Well done! Bonus: We loved tea tasting in Abigail’s Tea Room!

It had been over ten years since I had last seen the ocean. I forgot what sea air smelled like and just how large sea gulls can be (big as chickens). The guide was a Boston native. That's a must. He knew a lot of history. I loved all the stories, anecdotes on the way to our stops. Plimoth/Patuxet Colony was really interesting. Staff were in period wear and in character. Saw a flintlock musket firing. Had the best turkey melt sandwich in at the Pillory Pub in Plymouth for lunch. It was a fun day trip. I would recommend this to a friend.
