Boston Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Rob was our brilliant, enthralling, compelling, informative, enthusiastic historian of a guide. Best way ever to start a visit to Boston. The tour gives you a great feel for the city and events of 250 years ago, give or take. It is an intense criss crossing tour of some of the oldest parts of Boston and of the roots of Boston's sense of itself and its place in revolutionary history. Excellent structure and approach to the tour - it ropes all ages into the compelling story.

Lot of walking but easy pace (I am 84 but in good health). We had a really good guide, Zoe. I will recommend to others

Very informative, learned a lot, the tour guide Adrian was knowledgeable and make this learning experience fun.

Amazing tour, knowledgeable staff. We saw 30 whales (20 adults and 10 babies). I would highly recommend this tour. It was amazing and so worth it. Got so many great memories.

Amazing experience, amazing performance. Staff were so friendly. Loved the tour - highly recommend this to anyone visiting the area. What very informative and interactive

Tons of fun! Loved the interaction and we all got cards representing key characters to enrich the experience even more!

A very informative and fun way to learn about the Freedom Trail. Catherine was very knowledgeable and added some very interesting fun stories. Thoroughly enjoyable. 2nd time we have done it and still learnt more. Would 100% recommend anyone to do it!

Our captain, Jay, was exceptional from start to finish. He was incredibly considerate and cautious, making sure we felt confident and comfortable throughout the entire tour. His guidance through Boston was top‑tier — full of fascinating historical facts, local insights, and great energy. Jay made us feel genuinely welcome, and the whole experience was seamless, safe, and truly top quality.Highly recommended for anyone visiting the city or wanting a fresh way to explore it.

We were in town for a concert, and my wife booked this tour. We are both foodies (per say) and love a good laugh. This was the tour for us. Flash is an absolute legend. As someone from the south side of Chicago, I loved Flash's style. I have told my friends, family and coworkers about this tour. I recommended it to them, and I recommend it to you! If I'm ever back in Boston, I would do this tour again.

Chris was exceptional. George was great driver. Learned so much history.

This tour was exactly what I was looking for! A fact based historical account of what led up to the start of the Revolutionary War. Chris was an amazing guide and it was immediately obvious that he has a love and passion for the history. There were brief times it was a bit hard to hear due to the traffic and blaring music but I just got closer so I could hear. Great tour and would definitely recommend for anyone interested in Revolutionary War history.

My friends and I stumbled upon this when we visited Boston. It was really busy midday, we didn't have tickets so we didn't mind. We went and got lunch walked around and come back mid afternoon and it was much less busy. Had a great time, perfect rainy day activity. Staff was kind and extremely helpful.

Worth every penny Fantastic trip from start to finish New England Trips did an amazing job and the service was top notch Everything was a perfect 10

The food was great, info was interesting, and Anthony was amazing! Highly recommend!

We had heard great things from a friend so brought our kids, they loved it, didn’t want to leave.

It’s a fun time,the crew were exceptional. The boat was full, so great way to meet new people on your cruise around the harbor.
