The tour around city was great! Driver was fun and informative! Times are wrong on Website. Website said to meet at 2:00pm. Got a call from driver around 12:30. That was okay he was not rushing. However, if we had left at that time we could have made it back in time for the boat tour. Once we finished lunch we got in van, toured city, again it was great. Then we arrived back at harbor to get on boat, it was leaving. Again, we were supposed to get on the 4:00 boat, we got back early at 3:30 and it was leaving dock. Driver seemed shocked, we said it was okay, because there was literally nothing, we could do about it. It was paid for through the website, and the driver did not have the means to refund us. I feel like for $800.00, we should have gotten something as a refund. Not blaming the driver, but the company should know what they are selling before advertising.
Best of Boston
We were very fortunate to have a private tour. No one else joined us which is probably due to the time of year …we had a wonderful time. Got to see the best of Boston and ride in comfort, plus end our trip on a wonderful boat ride to see the city from the harbor!!

We were expecting a historical tour not pointing out various buildings. After a tour in Lexington where we were exposed to historical facts we expected the same
Do not recommend this company
Our tour guide was an hour late picking us up. We then made 2 more stops to do pickups; were told we would go straight to the boat tour or we would miss our reserved time. The boat tour was great, that is why I gave this review 2 stars. Without the boat tour I would have given it zero. Our van driver was not what we have been accustomed to on these types of tours; he did not seem well versed on the sights we drove by. In fact he was not at all talkative or helpful. It was very disappointing, we felt most of the day was a waste of time. Again I want to point out that the boat tour was separate and was very nice.
Very enjoyable!
Bob was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor, made our tour a very enjoyable Experience, would highly recommend if visiting Boston.
