My wife and I were so pleasantly surprised to find a tour and a tour guide in downtown Boston that was worth many times more than what we paid for it. We were blessed to have as our tour guide a Bostonian Patriot who borrowed the moniker of "Deacon John Larkin". This man was not only infinitely knowledgeable about Boston's Revolutionary history but he provided so much information about the Founding Fathers of our country who got their start in Boston, He held the entire tour group's attention for 2 hours with many stories which brought our country's early history to life. This man's passion for our country and the principles that it is founded upon appear to be a match for any of the original Revolutionary's that walked the streets of Boston in the 1700's. Our heartfelt thanks go out to our Historian/Patriot tour guide, Deacon John Larkin, for making this the best history tour and history lesson that we have ever received in our lives.

Caitlin (our guide) was very knowledgeable and was loud enough for us to hear her without having to squeeze in really close. The tour was very informative and our guide was friendly! A+

My tour was done with Deacon John Larkin. He was very informative and gave a good insight into the history of Boston. I would recommend doing a tour to other travellers. Other than how cold it was...I enjoyed it.
