The gentleman giving the tour was very knowledgeable. I learned so many interesting facts from him. It is a great way to get an overview of Boston. Then you can go back to places you want to see more. It was also enjoyable interacting with fellow tourists. The whole experience was very enjoyable.

When touring dates become available, book no other tour, you might cringe at 4 hours, time flies by Mark’s love of Boston and humor. He manages to keep interest with his vast knowledge… excellent tour…!!!

Mark was a phenomenal tour guide who is very well versed and knowledgeable about Boston History. Being in a small group felt more personable and intimate. He was able to take us on a tour that no other guide could have done. Definitely make sure to book a trip with him on your next visit to Boston!! :)

Mark is an excellent tour guide. We thought we knew quite a lot about the Revolution in Boston, but we learned a lot in an entertaining way. Could have kept going for another 3 hours if we had time as Mark is a walking encyclopedia of the Revolution and answered all our questions

Guide was knowledgeable. Walked very fast. Government shutdown prevented us from viewing key locations such as USS. Constitution.

Our tour guide Mark made history come to life. We were so grateful we got to learn as much as we did on this tour. There is a lot of walking but there is so much to see and learn. We got to take a lot of photos and have plenty of memories to cherish. Thank you Mark for making this tour an amazing experience.

Our Entire Freedom Trail Tour with Mark was absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, he brought Boston’s history vividly to life — weaving fascinating stories, humor, and insights into every stop along the trail. His passion for the city and its revolutionary past is contagious, and his knowledge is simply exceptional. Mark took time to answer questions, keep the pace comfortable, and ensure everyone felt engaged. It was clear he loves what he does, and that made all the difference. If you want more than just a walk through Boston — if you want to truly experience the Freedom Trail — this tour with Mark is the one to take. Highly recommended!
