Fun Freedom Trail - Elaina Jacobs was incredible and fun to listen to in terms of retelling and reliving history. It was a while ago...i think it was actually the summer of 2023.... and I'm tardy with my praise, but I remember thoroughly enjoying the trail thanks to Elaina.

Fantastic! - The guide was very engaging and interactive with the entire group. She was quite knowledgeable and a great story teller. My group and I are all from Boston and we still learned a lot. Highly recommend!

A character study of the leaders of the American Revolution! - Ben was a great docent! He knew the characters involved and the deep history of Boston! Instead of just telling us what happened or about the people, he created a visual for us which explained the why and how they made history!!!! It was like a character study where he tied it all together in a perfect bow for us at the end! He was great and really knowledgeable. I learned and saw more than I had imagined or could have leaned on my own for sure. He “pulled back the curtain” and showed us a peak into the origins of how the American Revolution began! I loved it!

Mother Goose is Amazing! - I am a huge history nerd and selected this tour, because of the other reviews and was hoping that I'd get Mother Goose as a guide and randomly did! Mother Goose does NOT disappoint! She was engaging, entertaining, and extremely funny! She had facts that I'd never heard and I learned so much! The walk is very manageable for those on the heavier side (I am), but be prepared to stand some too (also manageable).

Fun while walking! - Aaron Glen(I think) dressed for the occasion was absolutely up to the task. With his cane in hand, walking with a purpose, while regaling us with his knowledge and a keen since of humor. Made it fun and informative. A must for first time visitors of Boston.
