Highly recommend! - What a fun time! Our guide, Nicole, was AMAZING! And our group was so fun! I loved every minute of it: meeting people from around the US and England, trying new beers, and learning some of the REAL history of Boston and the Revolution. I knew it was going to be a fun tour, but it definitely exceeded my expectations!
