Reviews
We booked this walking tour on our second day in Boston, and am so glad we did. Travelling from Ireland, we were aware of the connections to Boston, but never really appreciated the deep history and importance of Boston. Our tour guide - Bob - was amazing. He is a true font of knowledge on everything from the background to the American revolution, its key players like Samual Adams and Paul Revere, the City as a centre of trade and commerce, and how it became a home for so many immigrants who transformed the City’s commerce, culture and politics. Best of all we learned all of this while strolling around the best parts of Boston and enjoying the most amazing food. Bob delivered with humour and fun. He was engaging and helpful, and has so much passion and deep historic knowledge which came across at every opportunity. The food aspects were incredible. We spent much of the time in the North End, - little Italy - and were introduced to several amazing multi generational family food businesses that we would never have found otherwise - bakeries, coffee shops and delis - with lots of wonderful food to sample. It was a fantastic tour. Genuinely, it completely enriched my knowledge and perspective on the City and was enjoyable from start to finish. There are lots of tours of the city - bus tours. Duck tours, ghoul tours, walking tours etc and some look a bit gimmicky with tour guides dressed is period costumes. If that’s your thing then fine, but you will miss on a tour like this one which so authentic, educational, fun and engaging. Travelling around the city with a guide with such knowledge and history as a guide like Bob, turned out to be a great privilege. I highly recommend this trip. I doubt you could find a better way to four or five hours in this most fascinating city,
Wow!! We would have given this tour 6 stars if we could. Our tour guide, Dave, was so knowledgeable and spun the stories to weave Chicago's history so clearly for these East Coast visitors. Loved the mixture of interior and street landmarks. We learned so much and will be sure to recommend this tour to others. A true highlight activity of our visit to Chicago.
Laura was awesome and really informative. She answered all our questions and had a lot to say about the city. Loved it!
Traveler reviews
Laura was a delight. She...
Laura was a delight. She is very considerate and conscientious of her tour members’ needs. She provided resting stops and took us into AC in well timed intervals. Her knowledge of women’s history added great value to the tour.
A Great Way to Learn About Denver!
A great tour of Denver. Our guide, Laura, was very knowledgeable and conscientious about the heat and altitude sickness. We really enjoyed all the fun facts she shared.
Nice Tour!
It was a nice tour if you would like to see and know more about Denver. I found the history fascinating.
Great tour!
Hayley was a great tour guide! I learned a lot of history and fun facts!
Excellent overview of city’s history and architecture.
Hayley’s depth of knowledge reflected an interest in the area that couldn’t be feigned. We should have done this on our first day.
