It was good but could have concluded at the statue of President Washington on his horse. Rest was not interesting. First part was very interesting.

Sorry you didn't enjoy Back Bay. To many folks, that's a big highlight with the Newbury Street boutiques, the mansions of Commonwealth Avenue and the beautiful architecture of Copley Square. And of course, the Boston Marathon Finish Line.

Andrew was a great tour guide. He shared all sorts of interesting stories that you don't read about in the history books. It was a super hot day but we loved the time on this tour!

It was a great tour with lots of historically interesting facts and anecdotes. We took the 2-hour tour and our guide was awesome! I went with my wife and kids (10 and 15) and we all had a great time. You can’t go wrong walking around Boston and enjoying all historical sites. The walking tour gave us a good perspective of the City. Definitely recommend it!
