5.00Comprehensive tour and knowledgeable guide. The day went by fast. We made multiple stops and covered vast amounts of Boston in one day. Great option for travelers with kids. Stewie was very kind and accommodating.

5.00Excellent experience! We did a freedom-trail-like tour day before and wanted to see other parts of Boston. Wow. So glad we found this tour and met Stu! He is friendly, clever and offers a sweet ride in comfy Lincoln with drinks and charm. He asked about our prior day’s tour and minimized duplication and catered to our requests. He offered options and even had photos of events we never heard of. Stu also took us places we’d never think of. He’s a master driver and safe. Felt very spoiled and grateful for a fab and full day!
This is the tour for the adults, walk when you want. This would be good if you think you know Boston, surprise.
