5.00This was a great tour! Maria was very knowledgeable about her city and even had pictures to share! We learned a lot about Boston and it's storied past! We got great tips for visiting shops and restaurants. We really enjoyed the boat tour and seeing the Naval Yard and ships along with views of Bunker Hill and the city! A well thought out tour! Maria was so nice and entertaining!
Great tour for all ages

5.00Mark was an excellent guide! The tour included great sights, both walking and through the harbor. We traveled with our kids and the grandparents and the tour was great for all of them. We weren't able to tour the Old North Church due to a funeral service inside, but that was understandable and didn't hold that against the tour company. Very thorough historical tour. Would highly recommend!
Better bathroom stops.

4.00The guide was good but he needed a louder mic. Also Viator needs to find better restrooms and a longer time to have a chance to get through the line.

5.00Guide Mark is personable and knowledgeable. 90 min freedom trail walk was comfortable, efficient and provided time to look around and converse with Mark. Enjoyed being on the water for hour harbor tour - valuable perspective into maritime Boston. Very scenic.
