My mom and I had a two hour walking tour with Alan. He was a fantastic guide! Engaging, funny, and knowledgeable. The first hour of our tour was with another small group but the second hour of the tour was just my mom and me. It was a super windy day and Alan made sure that we stopped in places where we could be shielded from as much wind as possible. He also made sure we knew where we were going at the end of the tour. A wonderful way to get to know the history of Boston!
