Good stops but guide has opportunities

3.00The stops were good. The guide seemed nervous, easily distracted, couldn’t complete sentence without taking sips of water and kept forgetting where she left off after being distracted. Said she had been doing these tours for 2 years but seemed like her first time. Was hoping for a better experience

5.00Our Guide “The Towne Crier” was excellent and showed us the most popular sites on the Freedom Trail. He really knew his history and made it entertaining as well. For us the 1-1/2 hour tour was just enough because we had a North End tour right afterward. It started at the Boston Common and ended at Faneuil Hall. It didn’t include going inside anything but that was fine with us for this visit. I learned a lot that I should have known by now. It was a good price for the 1-1/2 hour tour and was worth it. Highly recommend!
Great Tour!

5.00Make sure to wear walking shoes. While the distance isn't bad, the roads are uneven. The tour itself is fun.
A great way to see the freedom trail

5.00Our trip was nothing but exceptional. Our original date was rained out and Don contacted us to pick a time that worked with our schedule. We booked for the first slot next morning. Our guide, Zoe, was phenomenal! Even my 13 year old enjoyed her. Too bad history is not taught with this much passion and enthusiasm in the classrooms. This was the highlight of our trip. Honestly I was bummed when it was over. I wish we had done the extended 4 hour tour. Next time! Make sure you ask for Zoe.
