We'll worth it - We had a great guide ( who was so kind to park us in the shade each time we stopped, and we learned so much! I highly recommend it. You visit most of the places on the Freedom Trail, and the walk was easy. You end up at the Quincy Market , so if you time your day right, it's a great place for lunch.

Great Tour - Fabulous tour. We loved our guide, but we can’t remember his name. He was fabulous. He was super engaging, and that says a lot when you have two teenage children who would rather be elsewhere than walking through a hot and humid city to learn American history.
