The perfect tour - Alan was amazing! We got to hear and see SO much in just 2 hours thanks to this tour. His sense of humor and genuine kindness was a major plus. He is extremely knowledgeable and answered any questions anyone had along the way. If you’re trying to squeeze some history and must see stops on your trip to Boston, this tour is for you. 10/10.

Great tour - Alan was a wealth of information and often funny. He truly loves his city! A lot of area was covered, but not the cobblestone streets I was hoping to see.

Flavor of Boston - Alan, our guide did a great job, bringing Boston's history to life, but his restaurant referral for after the tour resulted in a memorable culinary experience, the best meal we've had on this trip. All in all, a very good day.

Boston walking tour - Alan was very knowledgeable about Boston and I appreciated he has been a lifelong resident of Boston and seems to enjoy sharing information with others. He was also very humorous 🙂

Great tour of Boston - Meeting point was easily located, our guide was on the lookout for group members and welcomed us when he spotted us. Extremely knowledgeable, a Bostonian, made the tour entertaining with stories of Boston’s history and notable characters. Covered a large area, also gave us recommendations for further places to visit. Recommended!

Don't light a match! - Alan is a nice old man but wow he is as boring as a box of broken bricks. And he likes talking about bricks too! Also, I don't know what he ate that day, but he farted throughout the entire tour, tooting up a storm to such an extent that I really worried about a spark causing a huge gas blast that would cause Alan to explode like a Molotov cocktail!
