Loved the pizza
We had a great time on the Freedom Trail Pizza Tour! The three pizza slices were all delicious and offered a fun variety, and the tour itself was a perfect mix of Boston history and great food. Margot was an excellent host—knowledgeable, engaging, and made the whole experience enjoyable. We’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Boston!

They cancelled tour but no Refund
Never got a refund even though they cancelled. Texted them multiple times. Go with a more honest tour company.
Operator response
Hi Carmela - you have indeed been REFUNDED IN FULL for the canceled tour. You texted us multiple times (at least that much is true) and we always texted you right back. Next time, simply check your Viator app for a refund confirmation before butchering a small business with nasty reviews. Have a lovely day.
