Easy to access and drivers are knowledgeable. Do not advise doing this on a Monday as MANY of the attractions/museums are closed.

Your experience will vary depending on the driver. Our first driver actually gave incorrect information and very little of that. Second driver was great.

It was cool to go around Boston and learn about the several sites of the city. The weather made it impossible to get off the trolley since most of the stops were outdoor. Definitely enjoyed it though, and Lurch was a great guide!

Buses were on time and had a lot of knowledge about the city of Boston. There’s just too much to see in 2 days. Plan your days out prior to hopping on the bus!! Loved the Boston Tea Party Museum!!

We were looking forward to this experience, but we were disappointed. The day we had tickets was clearly oversold. There were several stops where we waited but it filled up before we boarded, so we (and others) had to wait for the next bus; we even waited so long one time that we took an Uber to the next stop. There was so much waiting time that we didn’t get to all the stops and experiences. The buses for different routes look exactly the same, so it’s important to make sure you get on the bus on the route you want to be on. The driver was hilarious and very knowledgeable. We wished we’d had more time on the buses (and less time waiting around to get on them).
