Boston Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Fantastic experience! So glad we decided to take time for this. Museum guides were phenomenal, as were the film components!

awesome experience! Fantastic crew. Well spent money!

Chris was incredibly knowledgeable and funny, too. He was easy to hear and the small group size was great. The tour went at a very reasonable pace and gave opportunities for short rests while we listened. We highly recommend this tour.

Everyone who is interested in whale watching should experience this trip Worth the money value. Won't mind coming back

We had an excellent experience. We saw several groups, including calves. The narrator was very knowledgeable and interesting. We definitely recommend this tour.

This is a good in depth explanation of the seeds of rebellion were formed in and around Boston. Chris explained things very well and without bias. It probably debunked some long established myths but as an Englishman, it gave me a good understanding of an area we learn little about. We covered most of the freedom trail but all of the pertinent facts and a whole lot more. There was no fancy dressing up just sights, facts and explanations.

Jerry was an excellent guide who provided insightful comments in a meaningful, and sometimes humorous way. I had visited many of the sites included in this tour previously, but gained a great deal of knowledge about what happened, how it happened and the timeframe involved in these revolutionary activities. There is a difference between visiting a place and actually understanding what happened. Jerry provided that missing insight.

Really interesting tour, didn't follow the full freedom trail but drew out highlights. If I had to say anything slightly negative, the tour was slightly too long- a lot of information to absorb.

Kile Davis is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide with a passion for history. If you are like minded this is infectious and guarantees a memorable tour.

The traffic in the area was crazy and we did it on a Sunday if you don't know the area. Which we didnt. Give yourself plenty of time to get there to find parking.

The trip is great. Knowledgeable friendly staff. Bar selections are good. You get to see Boston from a different perspective. I highly recommend. Not all that great for small children.

It was a rainy day so we did not hop off like we had planned. It was informative and provided us with directional information.

We only had a short time in Boston and the Hop-On Hop-Off Tour with 13 stops made the most of every minute.It was the perfect way to see the highlights without feeling rushed. The trolley was comfortable, and our tour guide Regis was great — funny, informative, and really brought the city’s history to life. Being able to hop on and off at the stops that interested us most meant we could explore at our own pace. Even with limited time, we felt like we got a real sense of Boston.Highly recommend if you’re visiting and want to cover a lot without the stress. It turned a short trip into a really memorable one.

It was a beautiful evening cruise. We enjoyed the charcuterie board and wine as we sailed around. A must do activity!

Glad we did this! Anthony is a character and keeps it interesting. The food was great (best Italian sub I've ever had)!

This was my first time visiting Fenway Park and the tour did not disappoint!!! It was a fantastic tour that covered everything past and present. I was very pleased that we decided to take the tour, so worth it!!!
