Boston Blitz - Henry, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining. He covered Boston from The Puritans to The Big Dig. He more than made up for the so-so harbor cruise. And to top it off, his restaurant referral in Little Italy led us to the best meal we've had on our trip.

Improvement Needed - Our tour guide was a nice guy but he needs to improve on his communication skills and we felt so rushed throughout the tour, as if it was an Uber driver just spilling random facts about the city.

No Call No Show - He never picked us up from the hotel or respond to my messages. Thank goodness Viator refunded my money.

This was a dud. - There was a miscommunication between the scheduler and the vendor and me. We paid a taxi to head toward the designated pickup spot which the scheduler was a short 10 min walk. The vendor/driver was called who told us to go back to where we started wasting a $20 cab ride. BTW it would have way more than a 10 min walk). This put us behind schedule. The driver told us this was not his usual pick up procedure. He changed his usual sequence due to late start time. After being driven around making NO stops per itinerary we missed the River cruise and saw the boat pulling out without us. We saw nothing on the itinerary except drive past Harvard without stopping as planned. We saw NO historical sites even n passing. We requested and received a full refund (pending) but our one day in Boston was ruined.
