My husband and I took this tour with Mark on our first day in Boston. We were celebrating our 30th anniversary and Mark made the trip extra special. He was very knowledgeable and personable as we expressed our curiosity through lots of questions regarding the history and evolution of Boston. This was a fantastic tour with a great guy!! We got a good idea of the layout of the city for the rest of the week. Highly recommend!
Outstanding tour

We spent the day with Alexandria and she was Wonderful!! She was on time and filled our day with so many fun experiences. Alexandria is a walking encyclopedia of Boston facts and fun stories, too! She maneuvered the Boston traffic so professionally. We had delicious cappuccino and cannoli at an Italian restaurant in the morning and a fun seafood lunch in the afternoon. Alexandria adapted the route so we could drive by a couple of nearby sights. She was excellent in every way. A perfect 10!
Best guide ever!, Mark

It was a private tour and Marybeth was excellent and met on all our requests above and beyond. We went passed Harvard university and MIT…heard many stories about the campus and the Great Dom Hack about Harvard’s plank. We drove by Italian town and Chinatown. Ate at the famous Cheers and was delicious. We had a non walking tour as requested…mainly drove around town.
We had an amazing tour...

We rode in a comfortable car and we walked through a neighborhood. The tour included a snack (complementary) and time for lunch on our own. Because it was rainy, we chose to ride after our lunch instead of more walking. The good thing is that we could choose. We got lots of history.
