The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable but you could never hear her. Way, way too many people in a group so unless you stay right on her you can’t get close enough to hear anything. Before we even made it out of Boston Commons stop #3 we were all aggrevated because we couldn’t hear anything she was saying. She didn’t even stop her speach and wait for the church bells 15ft away to stop. Then the next stop in the cemetery it’s so tight with that many people and the traffic we couldn’t hear anything again. So we left did it on our waste of money

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. We had a great guide, her character name was Ann Cummings. I wish I knew her given name but I lost her card. We had probably 30 people on the tour. Our guide spoke loudly and clearly. She gave us great information including several fun tidbits that you would not read in any history book. The pace of the tour was rather quick. I wished we had more time to spend in the Granary Burying Ground.

We signed up for a tour of the half of the freedom trail that travels from Faneuil Hall to the Boston Common. Our guide es knowledgeable on time and full of stories. When my husband or I had questions he had the answers. One can walk by oneself in the freedom trail as I have before but this guide gave me new insight and info.
