Sad
Started a tour with my wife and daughter in Boston Commens. Was supposed to be a two hour Freedom Trail walk. Ten minutes in the sky opened up. We had to leave. No refund.
Operator response
The sad part is they never asked for a refund. Rain lasted 15 minutes. Guide and the rest of the group took shelter in the Parker House Hotel and talked History there. 15 minutes later clear skies and we continued. We have a 100% refund policy for any reason during the first 30 minutes. SAD they didn’t ask.

Excellent tour guide
Our guide Zoe, also known as Mercy Otis, was excellent and very informative. We learned a lot! Loved her stories! One suggestion we have is for her to carry a flag; on the very crowded streets it was difficult to follow her. Tim and Barb Melloy
Operator response
Zoe, one of the best. Brings Boston History to life. Passion, Knowledge and a Sense of Humor. We love her, tourists love her and the city of Boston Loves Zoe

Trooper in the storm!
Our guide Adrie was from Belgium and had a wonderful grasp on the nuances of American revolutionary history! The reason for the title is that it was pouring rain the day of our tour, but 4 of us showed up and Adrie made the best of it for us all! True dedication!
Operator response
Our tours run rain or shine. We want to give visitors a chance to see our city and its History. And your guide Adri is one of the best in the business.
