Alan was out guide and we started by getting lost trying to find him. He was very patient and waited for us to arrive. His tour was great and we all learned something about the history and architecture in Boston. Thanks for a great tour!

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour. Our tour guides' name was Allan. He gave us a history lesson, pointed out many points of interest. We felt we became very familiar with the city. He also had a great sense of humor which made our tour very enjoyable also.

I did this walk on Thanksgiving and very much enjoyed it. They were the only company I found offering tours that day and it was a great way to learn more about Boston. Very good!

I took a group of friends from the South on a walking tour of Boston in November- not the best choice. The tour was a good way to walk through a good amount of Downtown and see a lot of historic "must sees." We went on the Black Heritage Trail Tour the next day and the park ranger who guided was amazing and that tour is free! If you have time for only one I would definitely recommend the park rangers, their passion for Boston history made the trip!

This was a wonderful walking tour, well presented and well paced. It gave us a great opening to American history. Our guide presented an intimate knowledge of Boston and its history, and his pride in his city was obvious. Warnings about the cold were needed and well heeded. A great introduction to Boston which provided a great foundation for our trip. Many thanks.

A perfect introduction to the city's history, and no better way to see it than on a cool morning stroll in the streets of Boston!

ALAN WAS OUR GUIDE AND HE PROVIDED AN INTERESTING HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE DURING THE WALK. HE WAS ALSO VERY ENTERTAINING. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HE ENJOYS SHOWING PEOPLE BOSTON AND TALKING ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANCE OF EVERYTHING FROM STREET BRICKS, TO ARCHITECTURE, TO BOOT SCRAPES AND COAL CHUTES ALONG THE WAY. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL DAYIN BOSTON.
