When visiting Boston the sites are further apart than you think. The hop on and hop off helped close the gaps.

City View Trolley was well worth our time

Love that i can scan QR code to see where the trolleys are located. The vehicle is comfortable and frequency of pickup was great, didn’t wait long at all for next trolley. Hugo was very a very entertaining guide and Jack from Dorcester was excellent as well with all of his facts and trivia. Thanks to both these great guides

Boston Trolley Tour

Great way to see lots of Boston historical sites. The fact that you could also get off and back on the trolley worked great also for sites you wanted to spend more time at,

Tour of Boston

The tour attendant was excellent at the #1 kiosk. He was very helpful in checking me in even when my tour ticket was hard to come by. The driver was funny and was the highlight of the trip. Lots of interesting sights, but my physical condition didn't allow me to walk around to better enjoy any of the stops.
