The young woman who gave the tour was extremely informative about the historical landmarks. Also, she spoke with enthusiasm as she described significant events.

Booked last minute. Locating the check-in spot proved a bit cumbersome for a non-Bostonian but we made it in time with the help of locals. Our tour was approximately 25 people. They don’t have any type of monitor in place for the walk so by the time it ended there were close to 50 on our tour. At some points it was difficult to hear the tour guide with background conversations. In the end I would recommend the tour. Lots of locations visited & some interesting history learned.

The group was way too large, couldn't hear anything. We ended up abandoning the tour group and downloading a freedom trail app on our phone for $4.99, it was way better!
