Maria Quintana

Brian was an EXCELLENT, lively, animated & extremely knowledgeable tour guide! As soon as he arrived to the meeting spot, my husband said, "oh this is going to be good!" Being a tour guide isn't easy...especially in a City with so much history but Brian kept us captivated and involved! He included extra details from modern history as well that are cool to know (I won't spoil it!) You can't go to a place like Boston and pass on the opportunity to do this walking tour...it enriches the experience and you leave having a deeper appreciation for the City & the people that live there.

Pamela Lane

We loved our tour of Boston. Cindy was an amazing tour guide. We learned so much, but at the same time you felt like you were walking around with a good friend. She was informed, prepared, professional all at the same time, relaxed, fun, and easy to connect with. We have been to Boston a few times, and have walked the freedom trail and read along the way. This was well worth it to have a guide, someone who brings history to life. I would do it again and again. I highly recommend it. Brian was awesome as well. He helped me choose which tour to take and always answered my emails, as well as reminder and follow up emails on where to meet and even a picture of Cindy so we could find her.. So thankful I found foot walking tours.. they are awesome

Shannon Lowry

Took a tour earlier today with Stephen. Considered the “more historic” tour in Boston but decided to do the slightly more offbeat walking tour. It was so great! Loved hearing some of the lesser-known history of Boston from such a clearly passionate guide. I would highly recommend this tour - it is a bit longer than some of the others, but well worth it.

Neil Davidson

Had an incredibly awesome tour of the Freedom Trail with our local guide Brian. Brian was extremely animated and passionate about the tour and the American Revolutionary history in Boston. He was able to teach us things about history that we didn’t know. Of course being free this tour is an incredible value, but you’ll be happy to tip what you can for such a fun and engaging experience.

Lauren Brigance

Brian is the best tour guide you could hope for. He's extremely energetic, funny and engaging. We really enjoyed him and could tell the rest of our group did, too. Brian sent very detailed information on where to meet, how to get there, and how to find him once we were there. The tour was comprehensive and Brian really knows his stuff. I do wish we could have visited one of the old graveyards on the Freedom Trail, but that's personal preference. Really enjoyed it. Don't hesitate to book.

Elena Kononenko

We were on a private walking tour with Naomi. It was a Freedom Trail Boston tour. Naomi was very professional, patience. She has a very deep knowledge of Boston history. We enjoyed the time with her very much!

Alexandra Parker

Choose Free tour by foot!!!! Thanks to our tour guide David P with whom we did Freedom Trail and Harvard/ Cambridge tours. We ( 2 adults and 3 children ages 13, 9, and 7) had a great time on every tour. David did a great job engaging everyone, adults and children, on the tour. He made sure we learned US history in fun way. Great experience! Thank you to David P who introduced us to Boston history.

Lucas Alessandro

Brian is an amazing person and tour guide. I liked how deal with the people and information.

Tiff Lara

We took several tours this past week in Boston. We took a crime tour with David and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was so good and wonderful. 5 stars. Unfortunately, we took a tour with Brian and we could not tolerate it. We actually left within a hour. It seems he always drift away and it was just not appealing nor interesting as it was with David. No offense, Brian, just not a good fit for us. We wanted to get informed on the freedom trail and it seems like it was constantly going somewhere else. We lost interest. Thank you David for the good crime tour.

Nicole Tuchband

We went on the Freedom Trail walking tour with Brian and he did not disappoint! Brian is an energetic and passionate person who makes the 2 hr walking tour fun and interesting. He has a wealth of knowledge and is easy to listen to. I enjoyed hearing about the history and little side jokes about the people of Boston. I highly recommend Free Tours by Foot - just make sure to give your tour guide a donation/tip at the end since the tour is free!

Finlay Bamber

We had Brian as our guide and loved every minute. Super informative whilst also keeping it engaging and a lot of laughs. Definitely made our day and would recommend to anyone

Deepnath Majumder

We had a great experience with a very enthusiastic guide. Boston is an amazing city and we got to know a lot about this beautiful place by taking this tour.

Karl Haase

Had David P. As a tour guide today and his knowledge and enthusiasm for the tour was amazing. He knew the subject matter so well and it was paced great.

Alex Warren

Honestly one of the best things to do when you first get to a new city. Great way to figure out where to go and what to do as the guides give excellent recommendations. Did tours in Boston Philly and New York and they were consistently excellent! Can't recommend it highly enough!

Adam D'Ambra (RAD-CON LLC)

I had no idea what to expect, it was exceptional! We would highly recommend taking the tour again because the tour guides all tell a little bit different of a story. Great history lesson and we enjoyed ourselves very much

RUMINA

BRIAN was a superb tour guide. Funny, entertaining and yet so informative. I don't know if you can request guides, if so, request Brian.

Leigh Locke

My father and I visited the New England states for 12 days at the end of April 2022. I booked several tours throughout the states and Brian’s Freedom Trail Tour in Boston was by far the best tour I experienced. I feel fortunate and so lucky that Brian led this tour. Brian’s dedication and passion is apparent. I enjoyed his visual aids, enthusiasm and wonderful stories. A tour of historical facts and information has the potential of being a bit dry but Brian’s delivery was exceptional and memorable. He has been leading tours for many years but his tour seemed like it was the first time for Brian because he was funny, engaging and the best. Because of my short time in Boston, I wanted a tour of the Beacon Hill and was too late to book a tour; therefore, I was able to download an audio of the tour and coincidentally it was written by Brian. Of course, so knowledgeable and top-notch was this tour. I cannot express how fantastic Brian is – I hope you are lucky to experience his tour. Leigh-Anne Locke Los Angeles, April 2022

Diane Washer

We absolutely LOVED our Free Tour by Foot in Boston! We had Brian as our tour guide. He was the most well-informed, knowledgeable, and entertaining tour guide that we could have possibly asked for in Boston. Not only did he provide us with interesting facts and kept us engaged, he did it all while having a smile on his face. You can tell he is passionate about his city! I would highly recommend a tour where Brian is your tour guide! :-)

Rafi Cohn

Whether you are a Boston local or a visitor, “Free Tours by Foot” with Brian as your Guid is an experience you will not forget. He’s both informative and captivating with a wealth of knowledge. 10/10 for Brian my man!

Raghav B

Brian was a delight. Funny from the moment I first heard him speak, he tries very hard to create a captivating and light hearted tour. He remembers the city from where each of his guests are coming, and is kind enough to stay a little bit longer after the tour for any questions you might have. The wealth of information he was able to give in just 2 hours was astounding. Even if you know the history, he adds extra Boston-specific tid-bits (and humor) to make it worth your while. I highly recommend this tour if you have a couple of hours to spare in Boston.

Derek & Kristina Opherson

We recently did a Freedom Trail tour in Boston with Brian - in the pouring down rain. Brian was absolutely fantastic, and this was the highlight of our time in Boston. Brian remained enthusiastic despite the weather, and was clearly passionate about the history as well as the city itself. We not only learned more than we expected about the historical significance of the area, we got helpful tips on other activities that enhanced our whole Boston experience (especially lunch at Sam LaGrassa's!). Thank you Brian! Highly recommend!

Michael Bruins

Free tours by foot never disappoints, we took the freedom trail tour with Brian and it was amazing! He is full of knowledge and hilarious. I highly recommend this tour to anyone coming into Boston! Also David was amazing and went above and beyond to suggest a lot of great things to visit in the area when we weren't able to make it to his tour.

Steve Campbell

Greatly enjoyed the freedom trail tour with Brian. Stellar Boston accent and super knowledgable. If you are visiting from out of town, I’d highly recommend this tour

Elaine Culbert

My husband and I were in Boston for the first time last weekend. We took the Freedom Trail Tour with David P. as our guide. David did a great job. He was knowledgable on Boston history past and current, and offered insights that only a seasoned local guide would have. He also managed to keep us in the shade whenever possible. We enjoyed the first tour so much that we went on the North Boston Tour later that day, and the Harvard/Cambridge Tour the following morning. I highly recommend these tours.

iris b

We joined the Boston freedom trail tour with Brian as our guide. We have joined walking tours before but have never encountered such a great guide. Brian was simply amazing. Knowledgeable, interesting, extremely energetic without a dull moment in the tour.

Mariya Konovalova

We really enjoyed our tour with Stephen as our guide. I had been to Boston many times and it was the first time for my husband but we both found the tour interesting and learned new things. The weather was awful but Stephen was enthusiastic, engaging and so we had fun despite the weather. Would definitely recommend!

David Avila

I was in Boston October 17, 2021 for the 10:30AM tour with Brian. Let me tell you, the energy Brian brought to the tour was phenomenal and very informative yet not dry. History can get that way, but not with Brian running the show. If you're in Boston for the first time, I'd book a tour and cross your fingers that Brian is leading the tour.

H J

I HIGHLY recommend doing tours with them if you are visiting. David P was our tour guide for the Harvard/Cambridge tour and Brian was our guide for the freedom trail. They are hands down the best tour guides and are both so knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. The tours were really the highlight of our trip and I really cannot stress how great David and Brian are.

Carol Lau

David P is an awesome tour guide. So good in fact that after doing the Freedom Trail tour with him we continued with the North End/ Little Italy your where he will introduce you to the best eating spots in the area. Then we did the Beacon Hills Crime tour with him and that tour was great fun. If you like hearing crime stories that can't seem to be real with how crazy they sound then this is a must do tour! We ended our tour marathon with David P doing the Cambridge and Harvard tour. Every tour he offered we did! Highly recommend him and his company! Can definitely learn a lot and David as a tour guide just draws you in with his speaking and paints a picture with his stories and descriptions. Free Tours by Foot also offers another tour at Bunker Hill. We did this tour too and it was by another tour guide. While we saw his enthusiasm and passion for history the tour was all over the place.

Ronnie Parrillo

Free Tours By Foot is such an educational and fun filled tour! We went on two tours, and had tour guides Brian and Dave. Brian was extremely funny and made the stories come to life, with his entertaining hand motions and Bostonian accent! Dave knew a lot about different restaurants on the North End, and told great stories, also. We were very thrilled to go on this tour, and will definitely go again!

Deanna Trail Salm

We did the Freedom Trail tour with Brian this past weekend and it was incredible. Brian was so knowledgeable while also incredibly hysterical, and even pointed out things that we weren't expecting. Thanks to his great tour, we were able to tailor the rest of our trip to make for a perfect visit in Boston based on his recommendations.

Karen Tallon

I took just one tour in Boston with "Free Tours by Foot" and was impressed with Brian. We went on The Freedom Trail and had a blast (a lot of fun) the whole time. Brian was cracking jokes and was humorous quite a lot of the 2 hour tour. He took the time to keep a young boy interested, even as we all walked to each new location. He was very knowledgeable about each place. Thanks!

Paulina Morales

We had a great day today thanks to Brian’s Freedom Trail Tour. We walked to many of its landmarks and Brian had a lot of fun/interesting facts you don’t read in a guide book. He made us laugh with jokes and they helped to keep people interested in the history of Boston. We took notes of places to visit afterwards and at the end he stayed with us to give us some recommendations of places to eat and make the rest of the trip worthwhile. If he gave the Harvard tour we’d go with him again.

Joseph Ward

This was a brilliant way to see the sights of the Freedom Trail and to get lots of tips on other great places to eat, drink and enjoy the wonderful city of Boston. We had Brian as our tour guide and we couldn't of hoped for a more knowledgeable and funny guy to take us around. Would fully recommend.

M M

Brian gives a fantastic 2 hour tour of the freedom trail. He provides an interesting and entertaining experience, and tons of insight into the history of Boston you might miss just wandering the trial on your own. Highly recommend!

Marilyn Besasie

What a great tour! Our guide was super funny (we've already told his joke to a bunch of friends -- The bar across the street from the Granary Cemetary is the only place you can get a cold Sam Adams next to a cold Sam Adams! We loved his Boston accent and his tour was informative and fun. He kept it lively and gave us some personal stories that made us like him even more. The only thing keeping me from giving this a 5 star rating was that sometimes occasionally he talked a bit too fast and I couldn't understand what he was saying, and I'm sure it was something good that I was missing! But we almost didn't care because he was so entertaining to listen to regardless.

brian Medland

Whilst in Boston, we took a Free Tours by Foot Freedom Trail. Brian, Our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and clearly passionate about Boston and its' history (with a great sense of humour). We had a most enjoyable, instructive and fun couple of hours and would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone

Beth Contorer

I did a Freedom Tour with Free Tours by Foot in Boston recently; I highly recommend our tour guide, David P., who was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, and offered a slew of recommendations for the rest of our time in Boston. Although we did not do the tour with kids, he made it very kid friendly. This was my third Free Tour by Foot (also did one in DC and NYC), and I highly recommend the company overall.

Peter Scott

We did the Freedom Trail with Brian and the North End tour with David. We enjoyed both tours and learned a lot about these parts of Boston. Brian was very entertaining and we enjoyed his humour. David was very theatrical. Both had a really good knowledge of the history of the area and were passionate about it. We would recommend both tours.

Johannes Michel (ABCubeGamer)

We did the North End/ little Italy tour with David P. and it was great. We got a lot of information about the history of Boston in a very entertaining and exciting way. David is a great actor when it comes to storytelling and he had information about almost everything refering to Boston. The recommendations for Restaurants where just on point and we had a great dinner the same evening. Thank you.

Ansh Nasta

Pay-as-you-wish tour that shows you most of the historic and scenic places in Boston David Phillips was amazing!

Mely E

Did the Freedom Trail with Brian, great tour! We actually had a pre-paid tour later on in our trip and the amount of knowledge provided by Brian during our walking tour was beyond the depth that we were provided in our pre-paid tour. He was able to answer specific questions about the trail, sites, historical events, even provided recommendations for things to do in the city. Very informative, easy to get to and would highly recommend (just remember to tip!)

Giselle Isaacs

Great tour hosted by David P. David was well informed and so passionate about all the content he was delivering. He spoke so clearly and was very captivating. We had 4 children under the age of 11 in our group - and he kept their attention throughout the tour - giving them tasks, asking them questions and getting them to act out scenarios. As the children enjoyed it - it also allowed us as the adults to enjoy the tour. Was very informative! Thank you David for the amazing tour!

S E

Thanks Brian, we had a very informative, fun tour. Learned a lot, had a great time and the two hours flew by.

Grace Radebaugh

WOW!! Amazing tour by Brian. Myself and 5 others (all of us in our early to mid twenties) thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Super educational and engaging — Brian’s humor kept it interesting and memorable. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick yet information tour of Boston and it’s history.

Kathleen Rupert

A great tour of the Freedom Trail, and Brian is a Fantastic tour guide! His enthusiasm for his city is contagious. We learned so much and enjoyed the entire experience. Don't miss it!

Liz Greaney

Brian was awesome, I've lived in Boston for 6 years and this was my first time doing a walking tour in the city and he made everything so exciting and interesting. I would go on the same tour again, i enjoyed it so much! Great guide and great tour. Thanks Brian!

Christine Vaughan

We did the Freedom Trail tour. Brian was awesome, he had great energy and greeted everyone individually at the start. I also appreciated the extra background info for those that are not American. Plus I think this is the first time I've met a Midnight Oil fan abroad. Yew!

Suzanne Caldwell

We were visiting Boston for a few days and scheduled a private Freedom Trail Tour. There were 7 of us in our group. It was very easy to schedule and pay for the tour. Our guide Cindy was amazing! It literally pored down rain our entire 2 hours but it didn’t slow her enthusiasm one bit! We loved the ability to request some stops along the Freedom Trail ( we wanted the tour to include several points in The North End) Cindy was very knowledgeable and shared information in a nice way. The tour was a highlight of our trip to Boston!

Amanda Vala

Brian was an excellent tour guide and made learning about the city of Boston and it's history a super-fun experience! He is knowledgeable, has a great sense of humour and a true passion for history and his city. I would recommend this tour to anyone and look forward to taking my mother on it the next I visit the beautiful city of Boston. Thank you, Brian!!

Tom Biasi

Stephen had a deep knowledge of Boston history. His commentary was insightful and interesting, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. His excitement was palpable, and we left feeling invigorated and deeply curious about American history.

Leah Burroughs

Our tour was fantastic! Brian did an exceptional job as our tour guide in Boston. We learned a lot, and were thoroughly entertained. We would definitely recommend Brian as a tour guide and this Freedom Trail tour to anyone. Free Tours By Foot never disappoints!

Karen House

Free Tour by Foot Freedom Trail Boston lead by Tour Guide Brain. With his Bostonian accent recounting how the American Revolution was started was brought to life by Brian. His stories added to the history lesson from when I was in school. The in depth stories about these fathers of our revolution were excellent. And, he has an excellent sense of humor!

Peggy Mitchell

This was by far one of the highlights of our trip to Boston. Brian was our tour guide and was so engaging. He involved everyone in by relating to where they were from, encouraged the younger group with interesting facts and kept us moving both with conversation and sites. He knew his history and shared facts that made each location interesting.He had a very strong voice....so all could hear. He answered questions and was very safety minded as we walked the tour. We would do it again in other cities. Well worth our tip for a great job !!!!! The Mitchells from Georgia

Amanda Zelnick

Brian was AMAZING!! one of the best tours I've ever been on! he was knowledgable, entertaining and added great history/tidbits along the walk of not just the freedom trail but other sites! It was so good, if i go back, I'm gonna take whatever tours Brian gives again!

savache27

My husband and I took the Little Italy Food Tour, as well as the Freedom Trail tour, and we enjoyed both of them. Brian has crazy energy and is tons of fun. Beth has a more calm disposition, but has great of knowledge of the North End and takes you to a lot of really cool restaurants and shops. We even sent her a text later that night for dinner recommendations. She gave us several restaurants, and the one we choose was awesome. I can't recommend these tours enough. They're both a lot of fun and very educational.

Jody Kruger

David P. was our tour guide in Boston and he was absolutely excellent! All three in our group commented how lucky we were to get in on his tour! (We had tried earlier in the day to book a paid tour, but there was no availability, so we tried this one.) David P. was passionate about sharing his deep knowledge about history with the group. He has a loud, booming voice which was perfect on this cold and slightly windy day. I also loved how he engaged the group in remembering names of historical figures (Charles Bullfinch) and used some of the group members to "stage" the Boston Massacre. Brilliant presentation skills! Again, so happy that none of the paid tours had availability on this particular day so that we got into this group with David P.!

Anne Slee

Cambridge and Harvard Square tour, Boston. We were very pleased with our tour. It was informative, enjoyable and fun. Our guide was very knowledgeable and a good story teller. He conveyed his passion for the area well. He also took care that we stopped in shade where possible, which was much appreciated.

mehak mehta

I have been to a couple of tours offered by Free Tours by Foot in Boston and all have been amazing. Dan, the tour guide for the Harvard tour, was very knowledgeable. He shared some quirky facts and threw in jokes in between to make it enjoyable. I would highly, repeat highly, recommend this tour.

Albert Casanova

I did today the Freedom trail tour with David P. and I enjoyed very much. He has tons of knowledge and he is very passionate. He really enjoys his work and you can feel it. Tomorrow I have the Harvard and Cambridge tour, hope he would be our guide again.

MARSHALL FITCH

Took a tour of the Boston Freedom Trail with David P. It was fantastic! David was very knowledgeable and fun. There were children on the tour and he made a point of including them in his talks. If you are doing a Free Tour by Foot in Boston, be sure to ask for David P!!

Josie M

Just got back from an AMAZING tour with David P. We toured the Beacon Hill neighborhood in Boston and David told us stories about all the crimes and murders that had occurred in the area. It was a bit morbid at points-- but a very interesting and enjoyable way to learn about the history of Boston!!! I cannot give enough praise for these tours!!! Do yourself a favor and go on one of these tours. They are fun, informative, and highly enjoyable. I promise you will have a great time!

Andrea K.

I participated in all four of David's free walking tours in Boston (Cambridge/Harvard, Beacon Hill Crime, North End/Little Italy, Freedom Trail). He is very knowledgeable, but more importantly enthusiastic about his job, and it makes all the difference in the world. I enjoyed all the tours immensely due to the way he conveys all the facts and information and performs the historical events. It would be hard to choose a favorite, so just go to all of them ;)

Stacie Human

We took the Boston - North End tour with David P. and the Freedom Trail tour with Brian. Both very nice and informative. Highly recommend both tours. It gets hot and you are doing a lot of walking so bring water.

Soledad Barrero

I did the North end tour yesterday with David P. and really enjoyed the experience. It shows he is passionate about the city and his work. He made excellent recommendations too. I look forward to my next visit to Boston so I can do the Freedom trail tour.

Chris Williams

I did the Beacon Hill tour with David P and what an outstanding experience it was!! The tour lasted about 2 hours and it was both informative and fun. David was so knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Boston that it made for a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this tour (or any of the other tours) to everyone!!

Elena Schak

I'm so glad that I took this historical tour with Brian in Boston. Brian is not only incredibly knowledgeable and creative, but he's an utter riot. The two hours went by very quickly, and I felt much more able to understand and enjoy Boston afterwards. Thanks so much, Brian. If I meet Peter Garrett I'll send him your way :)

mauricio rincon

I bought the audio recording. Enjoyed listening while following the freedom trail.

Grace Jacobs

Rum, Riots, Writers and Revolution with Stephen was a great tour! I learned a lot and Stephen shared really interesting stories.

Joy Vandoske

The freedom trail with Brisn has to be one of the best tours I've ever been on. Brian is so animated & passionate about his subject matter that we gave him applause several times. LOVED every second of it. Would go again tomorrow if Brian was doing the tour. He deserves 10 stars!!

Jimmy Grant

This was THE BEST city walking tour I have ever been on. Brian was AMAZING. Honestly so funny but also very knowledgeable. My dad and I had an amazing time! Do yourself a favour and book it!

Christopher Weir

The Harvard Tour with David. We have been lucky enough to travel extensively and used guide services on most visits. This stood out from the rest. We expected knowledge, personality and some entertainment. What we got was all that in spades, plus David's personal insight and shared emotional attachment to this amazing institution. This experience really was the icing on our Boston visit. Thank you David.

Veronica Reyes-How

Brian is the best! He made our tour fun and entertaining and packed it out with so much information about every building and historical reference we passed along the way. My husband and I LOVED IT.

Ashley Cook Healy

This tour was fantastic! My 5 year old and I both enjoyed it and learned a lot. Our guide, Margaret, was fun, engaging, knowledgeable, and a great storyteller. It's incredible that a tour like this technically is free (it's pay-as-you-wish) because it certainly is comparable to--if not better than--many of the other city tours that charge per person.

Lets Shake Hands

Done a Boston freedom trail tour with guide David. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the Boston area. Highly recommend tour as it gives a great background and a different perspective to the buildings, rather than just looking at the buildings.

Joseph Hill

I did the self guided tour. Easy to download and follow. Very informative

Kevin McPartland

We loved our Capitol Hill tour in DC with Becca! It was the perfect way to learn about the history and buildings where our government works and her passion and knowledge made the experience that much better. I would highly encourage anyone who wants to better understand the impressive sights in DC to take this or any other tour with Becca!

EMEM

Our recent tour was the third such experience in a third city with FTBF. It was great fun despite the extreme heat! Brian was such an entertaining guide, had us laughing the entire time. He demonstrated a vast knowledge and appreciation of his beloved Boston which showed brilliantly in his enthusiastic delivery. Looking forward to our next adventure with FTBF!

Lisa Dalton

My mom and I took the tour this morning. It was great. She is visiting from out of state and it was very informative. I have lived in Boston for many, many years and I even learned things I didn't know. Brian was a very good guide and I would recommend this to others visiting Boston.

Aline Wilbert

The Freedom Trail Tour with Brian was a great experience. He is very knowledgeable and makes learning fun. I strongly suggest Free Tours by Foot to everyone regardless age. It was awesome!

Pat Jesson

We took the free tours by foot of the freedom trail in Boston. Some of the sites had a fee but many are free. We saw an amazing amount of USA and Boston history in just a 2 mile walk and a couple or 3 hours of our time.

Michelle Raffay

My daughter and I took a North End tour today with David Phillips. The tour was extremely informative and presented so well. David adds a lot of fun . We ate at his favorite restaurant and it was awesome.We took the 24 hour bakery tip and are enjoying the cannoli,tiramisu and red velvet cake at our hotel. Thanks David😉

H. Kiley

They give great tours. I've done New York and New Orleans. John Gallagher was my tour guide for the N.Y. downtown tour and he did a great job. Very personable and gracious. Was interesting and a real local with recommendations of where to eat.

Anneika Kerr

I really loved the tour. I think that Mar did an amazing job of being both funny and engaging. I don't know the area super well and learned about different restaurants as well which was super helpful. The following day, I did the tour again very early in the morning to get better pictures. I can't say enough good things about what he taught me and how happy I am that I did this tour.

Diego Kiedanski

We did today the Tour: Rum, Writer, Riots and Revolution with Stephen and we had a great time, would recommend!

Martin Kilbridge

Stephen was a great tour guide through downtown Boston - informative and humorous (without being zany or ridiculous).

John Harris

Great walking tour of the Freedom Trail. Brian is a fantastic guide. Very animated, knowledgeable and funny.

Swati Nair

I really enjoyed this tour. It was quite interesting, and very well told, just like a story. This is just what a new visitor to the city needs - a little bit of history mixed with quirky anecdotes. I also took the North End tour, and I have the same opinion. Boston came alive for me because of these tours.

zyulka99

We had a very informative and entertaining tour with Brian

Blair Wilson

Took the Freedom Trail tour this morning and it was fantastic. Our guide Brian had a great energy, made it a lot of fun and he really knows his subject.

Silvia Almer

We are already big fans of your tours and the North End tour in Boston just confirmed this. Our guide was witty, knew a lot (especially about architecture:)) and even managed to raise interest in our teenagers. We could have asked for nothing more. Thanks a lot Silvia

Rosanna C

Fantastic and fun tour of Boston! Brian was such an enthusiastic tour guide who gave us lots of information about the history of Boston. I would definitely recommend it!

Linda Phillips

Thought this tour was great. I had previously been on tours with other companies but this was far better. Liked the personality of the guide and liked the mix of jokes and historical facts. Also his recommendation for where to get lobster roll was excellent !!

Nai Sonauta

We did the street art walking tour with Greg last week. We had a great time and l learned more about the story of street art culture. The art work that he showed us were phenomenal!

David Smith

Very historical site at Concord Massachusetts

Jordan Christian

Brian had a great tour, was passionate, and provided fantastic recommendations. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Boston.

Mykal Amaré

Brian was our guide on the Freedom Trail, Friday June 30th. It was a great tour filled with excellent information and humor

Caralee Matthews

The guide was excellent. He was educational, humorous and entertaining. We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour!

Kim Lakocy

We had a great time on the Harvard/Cambridge tour with David P! He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot.

Ben Hanson

We had David P. lead our tour of the freedom trail - it was filled with interesting history and local knowledge, the man knows his stuff and is very passionate!

Steven Pomerantz

Food was good, not great as prices would indicate. Waiter was attentive and excellent communicator however runner brought appetizer and entrees within two or three minutes of each other. Not acceptable at this level of dining!

Kristin Bourne

Brian is fantastic. Better than other tours we did for $30+. Expect to tip well!

Lucas Coelho

It truly works!!! I´ve used it a few times and in different places... the guides have a lot of knowledge and are always funny / high energyzed. All you have to do is pay for a tip. Why pay for the tour AND tip? Everyone should try them!

Marly Ruiz

It was a really good tour, our guide was great full of energy with great information to share.

Joe Cook

Brian is an outstanding guide. His command of history is excellent and his delivery can’t be missed. A must do.

Klaudia Dołęga

Nick in New York and David in Boston. Both of them was so great guides that we don't take one - we took two trips with each one. Totally recomended.

Ben Lee

Fun, interesting and a very comprehensive tour. Our guide's has got a board range of knowledge not just limited to Boston's history!

albert duque

Great way to sight see historic sites in Boston. Easy, Low cost, at your pace, as much information as you care for.

Nyles Nettleton

David P. was marvelous - great speaking voice, great rapport with the kids and very friendly with everyone. Excellent knowledge of the local area history.

Peter & Cherida Warner

We walked the freedom trail with Brian who was brilliant, very informative funny and talked about interesting stuff the whole time we were with him. Thank you

MarkP

David’s knowledge was exceptional, he made the walk on a rainy day very interesting and held his audience. Would recommend this walk.

ugh dugh

Small group. Limari knew her stuff plus some. Took her time. Answers question. Even stay after tour to answer question and recommended places to go and eat. Will be doing some of the other tours.

The guides are truly passionate about what they do. They aren't as worried about the money to be made so much as the education the customer will receive. I highly recommend tours by foot.
