Caitlin Johnston was an incredible tour guide for the first portion of the Freedom Trail! She was easy to hear and follow, kept everyone safe from the crazy Boston drivers, and made the history exciting and tangible! So lucky to have gotten her as my tour guide

I was in Boston last Sunday and i went on the tour with my sister. All in all it was a great experience, we where lead around Boston by a very well informed and authentic George Osbourne who not only brought the events of the lead up to the revolution to reality but was a gent and very pleasant tour guide.

This tour with Caitlin gave us a great overview of the city, it's history and it's sense of humor. We showed up at the Visitor Center at Boston Commons and took the Walk into the Past tour. Luckily we got Caitlin as our guide and from the first moment were caught up in her enthusiasm. During the 90 minute walk we saw historical sites and had them brought to life by her stories. We all wished she had been our fifth grade teacher when we first studied American history. The tour was not physically demanding and appropriate for any age group. We highly recommend.
