Once we found out how to get the tour bus, it was great. We had 2 different drivers and they were both knowledgeable and engaging.
The problem was, I misread the map which indicated where all the attractions were. I thought it was the route map. You know how things are so obvious in hindsight? well, that was my problem.
So you have to go to the ticket booth to get the ticket for the trolley.
The other confusing thing is that there are 2 trolley companies in the city and I got them confused.
So, yes the tour was good once we figured it out.
This was a great way to help us outline our plans and save money. We enjoyed Salem, the freedom trail, the trolley, the whale watch and so much more. We will definitely look at doing this option again.
We used the trolley, and 3 tours which more then paid for the card. It was very convenient and very easy! Go Boston!
