This turned out being a private tour for us which was a bonus. Allen answered all of our questions and took his time . The Freedom Trail component was informative and thorough. It was nice to include Beacon Hill to see the homes and learn who lived there. Boston Common and Public Gardens were included as well. History of Back Bay was remarkable.

So happy you appreciated the addition of Beacon Hill and Back Bay to the Freedom Trail. Many folks never get to enjoy them.

Good tour.
Our guide, Allen, was very informative and had good “inside” added stories to the history. He wore a small microphone so no trouble hearing. Our group was 8 which was good. We saw some groups of 30 plus. Too big! My best advise is check group size.
Good tour

First Class Beacon Hill Walking Tour
We had an excellent insiders tour of Beacon Hill and Back Bay neighborhoods. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area and Beacon Hill was definitely a hidden gem we would have never discovered without this tour.

Intimate, Personal Tour & Guide
This is not a Revolution tour. This is a nice overview of the genesis of Boston, some historical backgrounder of key revolutionary figures plus seeing and hearing the history about interesting landscapes, buildings and architecture. It covers Boston Commons, Boston Gardens, Commonwealth ave., Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Faneuil Hall, the Old State State House and the Old City Hall, and a lot more.
Don't let Alan fool you. He may be retired but he does this for a living - the walking tour pace is slightly fast to fit in so much in just two hours. We took a restroom break about halfway through. We're in our early 60s and in ok shape. We walked over 10K (walking) steps as well as some steps (real steps) and inclines (think Beacon Hill). We were a little stiff the next day, but all in all, we were good.
Alan is a born Boston native and passionate about it - the real McCoy.
We also attended a good revolutionary tour the next day, but we were happy we did this tour beforehand because it was not only a great foundation for the second tour, but it provided some information not included in the other tour.
Thanks Alan!

10/10 Recommend. We are Alan Fans!
Alan and the tour were absolutely amazing! Our family of three got Alan all to ourselves and learned fascinating facts for around 2 hours. We got to see the Freedom Trail sites while discussing them in fuller historical context rather than just colonial times. We also got an awesome look into some of Bostons prominent neighborhoods and learned about their unique characteristics. Overall an amazing time and 10 out of 10 recommend!

December tour
Allan was such a fun and knowledgeable tour guide. I appreciate that our tour group was small because we got to hear it all. Our tour guide was patient and answered everyone’s questions. It was my daughter’s favorite part of the trip.

Boston Walking Tour with Alan a Must!
Alan, our tour guide, was a gem! We were a small group tour that walked along the Freedom Trail, gaining insights that only a lifelong Boston resident could provide. The fact that he does this in his 'retirement years' tells you that he is passionate about history and his hometown. Friendly, informative, and made efforts to tailor the tour around the tidbits of info he asked about us. Highly recommend!

Thanks so much! Really appreciate that you felt engaged and noticed the tailoring!
