We were met by our guide Jeremiah who pointed out health and safety before we started we introduced ourselves and where we were from etc, now i must admit my history is poor especially with British and America , but i felt i was soaking up knowledge during the tour i found it very interesting pointing out a few extra points of interest along the way and giving advice on some things as well as cracking a few jokes along the way, our guide answered lots of questions from the group as well as asking us questions about various topics a great way for us to interact. Before we left he made sure we all knew where we were and pointed out various places to visit and said he would not leave until we were happy a great tour

A horrible experience! We drove almost two hours to take the tour. We just found a parking spot near the Boston Commons (where the tour was supposed to begin) when we got a text that the tour has been canceled! No explanation. So unprofessional. They have a LOT of competition... use someone else.

I was in Boston for 8 days trying to learn Boston history for my upcoming tour of New England. So I naturally thought to take a tour of the Freedom Trail and learn from a master. And man did I hit the jackpot with Steve! He was very understanding to my situation, and gave me more material than I ever could have dreamed! Steve did a great job keeping his group interested and entertained. He presented all of his information with excellent illustration, and also gave us the time we needed for personal exploration of the Granary Burial ground. Thank you for such an educational morning, Steve! You rock!
