Highly Recommend!
Elaina Vrattos Foster, aka Mother Goose, was our tour guide. She did a sensational job. My wife and I were in town for a concert, and she booked this tour because I love history. Mother Goose did not disappoint. I would absolutely do this tour again or another with Mother Goose!

Ben was an excellent tour guide! He was enthusiastic, energetic, and funny. The speaker system was loud and clear, so we could always hear Ben without any trouble. We learned so much about the places and historical figures included in the tour!

Boston Freedom Trail - Ben excellent!
Excellent Guided Tour from Ben. Have done many walking tours in many places over the years and this ranks as one of the best. Ben was informative and entertaining and with me being British bought some extra attention from Ben which was even more fun. If you can, arrange a tour with Ben, but I'm sure you will have a great experience taking tour a tour on the trail.

Our tour guide (I wish I remembered his name) was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He brought the history to life and made it relatable. The 90min tour actually lasted 2 hours. It is an easy walk and very interesting.
