Jenny was a fantastic tour guide! She was very knowledgeable and entertaining! Thank you for the great day Jenny!
Jenny will be thrilled to hear your kind words! We're delighted you had an entertaining and knowledgeable tour of Lexington and Concord with her. Thank you for sharing your experience!
The tour hit the key sites as advertised. Jenny was knowledgeable and also attentive to my wife’s health needs and adapted the pace as necessary. She was flexible with the schedule because of the summer heat, and kept the journey interesting and meaningful.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour and appreciated Jenny's attentiveness and flexibility.
Jenny was a great guide & driver. She was conscious of my wife’s health needs as the day progressed and paced our tour accordingly. She was flexible when the summer temperatures climbed to ensure we still had a great experience.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're so pleased to hear Jenny provided a considerate and flexible tour. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again!
We had a great time on our day trip to Lexington and Concord. The tour guide was knowledgeable and very helpful. Things stayed on time, but we never felt rushed. It was a great way to learn about the start of the American Revolution while standing on the grounds where it happened and also to visit one of the locations most associated with the American Renaissance in literature (Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Alcott, etc.) I don't think the Concord Museum was on our original schedule, but it was one of the highlights. The electronic wall showing how the patriots flooded in to help as word spread about the British troops marching toward Concord was very interesting. I do not recommend eating lunch at the Colonial Inn (which seems to be the usual stop). Our guide said we could go somewhere else to eat, and we wish we had. Except for that, this was a day well spent and much enjoyed, and I highly recommend it.
We're thrilled you enjoyed the Lexington and Concord tour with Maria and appreciated the historical insights! We are sorry the Colonial Inn did not fit your group's preferences, but we are glad it did not mar the day overall!
Mark was an excellent tour guide. He provided us a detailed historical perspective on each site we visited. He was friendly , courteous and professional in his interactions with us throughout the day. He exceeded our expectations in the guidance he provided us. We would highly recommend him to others as a historical tour guide.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience! We're delighted that Mark's detailed knowledge and professionalism exceeded your expectations. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and to potential guests.
We had a great tour day with Mark! After a few days of exploring Boston and seeing the Freedom Trail and experiencing the Boston Tea Party, this was a perfect way to wrap up our historical focused family trip and go through the start of the revolution in order. We learned so much more than a self-guided tour would have been and having an expert to share fun facts and do the driving was wonderful. Extra Special Highlights for us: ⭐️ Lexington- Buckman Tavern ⭐️ Minute Man National Park- Hartman Tavern ⭐️ Concord - North Bridge, Wright Tavern, Alcott School of Philosophy and Walden Pond ⭐️ Sleepy Hollow Cemetery Much appreciated the reservations made for us at the Colonial Inn- yum! I traveled with grandparents (in their 70s), and teens (including one with special needs) and it was a great experience for us all. Chargers and water in the van were also appreciated- they really think of everything to make the day comfortable and educational! I know it’s an investment to do this tour- but it was well worth it for our family of 5!
Thank you for your very thorough review! Our guides and our behind-the-scenes team work hard to make every experience amazing and it sounds like we really shined for your group; we're glad to hear it! Mark will definitely appreciate your kind words.
Our tour guide Jenny was communicative about meet time and place was on time. Jenny was extremely knowledgable and left time for questions. The tour was a great pace and we saw quite a lot in one day. Would highly recommend for anyone interested in knowing the history of the area.
Thank you, Adrienne, for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and found Jenny so knowledgeable and attentive. Your recommendation means a lot, and we're glad the pace and content suited your interests.
My husband and I took this tour our final day in Boston and it did not disappoint. Alex was a great storyteller and a fountain of knowledge as we asked question regarding our country’s history in the American Revolution. This trip will ignite a love and appreciation for our nations forefathers and their families. Great tour!! Highly Recommend.

Our private Lexington & Concord tour with Alexandria was phenomenal. She was professional, knowledgeable, and made the history truly come alive.
