Awesome your!
It has a lot of walking which I love. You get to see a decent chunk of the north side of Boston. Some of the west and south side. Omar was awesome e. He was hilarious. He worked his ass off and told us every single crime that happened right where we stood. My 21 year old son and I had him to ourselves. I was fascinated by the information. It’s a must to do when visiting Boston. And please tip your guide. If you tip your waiter then tip your guide. P.s. my son LOVED this tour.

So much fun!
Omar was extremely knowledgeable and a lot of fun! Even though it started to rain pretty hard at one point, Omar kept everyone engaged. It was interesting to hear how a lot of crimes were related. I highly recommend this tour and will be back with friends!

Great Walking Tour, even if you’re tired after a long day.
We (two adults and two teenagers) very much enjoyed the walk. The guide was prepaired, friendly, funny, helpful, considerate, and had visuals to support his stories (which was great). He also made sure that seating was available in all but one stop. It was an easy, enjoyable experience.
