We enjoyed learning the history of the Freedom Trail. The tour guide did a good job. Our only complaint is that he often talked with his back to us. It was hard to hear once in a while.

Glad you enjoyed the tour, but sorry you did not hear everything. I always check several times to see if everyone can hear if I walk and talk, but I do need you to respond while it's happening - not in a review later.

A great tour from a very knowledgeable, local guide, without the kitschy dramatization of other tours. Highly recommend!
