Our guide was super friendly and enjoyable to listen to. He was an absolute wealth of knowledge and answered everyone's questions enthusiastically. It was a windy and cold March day and he made a concious effort to keep us out of the wind where possible, and stood us in the sun when we had to be out in the open. The care and attention to detail was very much appreciated. The group size was perfect - about 15 people total - and didn't feel too big. The entire tour lasted about 2 hours and included a bathroom break. Make sure to bring your walking shoes, and dress for the weather because almost all of it is outside.

This tour was a wonderful addition to our vacation. We learned, got exercise, and had a blast. This is a great tour!

I went on the architecture and history tour. It only covered a small area around the Old State House and then onto the edges of the park. Had the weather been a bit warmer I would have booked on one or more of the tours to get a better feel for the whole city. Our tour guide was a really charming chap with a great wit and full of interesting facts which gave a more human side to the city

I am glad you enjoyed the tour and didn't even notice that the tour went 3 km through the city touring the Downtown Freedom Trail past Beacon Hill to Back Bay -all in spite of the cold!
