So fun!

A great way to learn about the Revolution. Catherine is a great storyteller, loaded with enthusiasm, and very funny. You feel like you are in the shoes of a Revolutionary by the end of the trail.

Interesting tour but too many in the group

Tour guide was great , very interesting. The tour was longer than advertised and it was supposed to be a smaller group tour. There were 50-60 people and it was very crowded. We weren’t able to take pictures at Samuel Adam’s grave because the group was too big to stop on the sidewalk. They told us the tour was full when we checked in and they continued selling tickets for 30 more minutes.

Ben is wonderful

Our tour was fabulous. Our guide, Ben was very knowledgeable and a great storyteller. He was wonderful about keeping my mom, who was in a wheelchair engaged. It was a wonderful day.

Great experience all around.

Entertaining and very educational. Ben kept us engaged while making the history fun. Glad he gave the option to keep going even though we ran over in time due to the crowds.
