Adam is an extremely passionate historian and is excellent at making connections between the past and current events. I deeply enjoyed hearing him speak about the various sites we visited - and enjoyed offering some of my own architectural history tidbits, as well ;). He and Atlas are the perfect companions for touring the city! I did roll my eyes at the many dad jokes. Be prepared.

We constantly work to come up with new dad jokes - we wouldn't want to be a FAUX PA in that regard!

Wonderfully interesting, informative & entertaining ! )] You really can't do or appreciate the unique history of Boston unless you do this tour!:Adam, our guide, was very kind, knowledgeable and offered a real look into, not only famous events, but gave you a real sense of the times in which they occurred and the humanity involved. He combines information from his extensive studies in Boston & Revolutionary history, within the breadth of his understanding of World History. This approach provides an unique insight to the interconnections of events and how they shaped modern life. All of this was conveyed in a light- hearted and amusing way. We find private tours so much more valuable as the guides, like Adam, tailor information to your interests and not just lecture you in a bland, general grammar-school fashion. Definitely, a must-do in Buston!

Adam understands the importance of deeply researched topics not typically discussed on other Boston tours. His meticulous research and enthusiasm shines through because Adam has the innate ability to engage an audience and keep them intrigued. His clothing is all hand-stitched himself which adds to realism of the tour. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time touring Boston and learning about little tid bits I was totally unaware off such artifacts discovered on The Common from the Massachusetts tribe. If you havenā€™t booked this tour, do it! You want be disappointed.
