A must do experience with Bob
Me and my husband absolutely loved this trip with Bob and am truly grateful to him for making it an unforgettable experience. We were very lucky to have had Bob all to ourselves and he didn’t disappoint. He knew so much about the history of Boston and delivered it in a fun and engaging way. It felt like we were walking with a well informed friend….happily taking snaps of us as we explored the many sights. There was a lot to take in so we’re also grateful that Bob took the time to email a reminder of everything we covered. Wonderful memories of a wonderful day! Thanks Bob :-)

He truly has a gift for bringing Boston’s history to life in a fun and friendly way, and it sounds like he went above and beyond to make your day special. We’re delighted you have such great memories (and photos!) to look back on. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Bob — he’ll be over the moon! We hope to see you again soon on another of our tours in the USA or Europe.

Friendly guide
I went on this tour quite last minute at the end of a business trip as I wanted to experience part of the city. Our guide was so friendly and informative and was happy to give reccomendations of places to go and see after the tour. A great solo trip

The tour that didn’t happen
Very disappointed, we paid for the tour that didn’t happen. We got to the meeting point around 0830 am and the tour supposed to start at 09:30 am. We were told that the tour would start at 09:30 am. We waited until 10:00 am and no one turned up. So we want our money refunded for the tour that didn’t happen. So please refund our money ASAP. Have a safe day. Kind regards Noel Brothers
Operator response
Hello Noel, thank you for your email. We did contact 3 days before to offer you an alternative date as the tour had to be rescheduled as there was filming going on in the Cheers Bar. We called you, we wrote and email as well as texted you but we did not hear from you. Your tour was refunded immediately on the day of the tour. Best Regards,
