We would definitely recommend this tour! - This is a great way to travel around the city and see the sights. There are plenty of interesting stops, and getting on and off was easy to do. The drivers were great with their knowledge of Boston's history. The only downside it that the trolleys can get full, leaving customers unable to board as there weren't enough seats available at stops.

The driver Crafty was lots of fun! - We saw lots of sights that we would not have seen if not been on the trolley! I would highly recommend doing the hop on hop off trolley.

Great for Leaning About Boston and Getting Around - We used the Hop On Hop Off Trolley for our Shore Excursion in Boston with Silver Shadow Cruise. We were delighted that for cruise ships that day, it had hop on off outside Terminal 1 Stop 16, so very convenient. We transferred buses at Stop 1, which was easy then got off at Stop 5. After strolling Faneuil Hall having lunch we walked to Boston Commons and the Public Gardens. Hopping back on the bus at Stop 7 by Cheers. We did wait about 15 minutes. There was a crowd waiting but the driver easily fit us all on the trolley. We rode the bus by all the stops back to the terminal. They did sell out that day even for a Monday in September. Each driver was very Good. Crafty had great tales and David also has his version of Boston history. For a one day visit it provided a good overview of Boston with the convenience of hop on off.

Wait time too long between trolleys - I did the trolley to see the city. Unfortunately we did not like it. If you don’t plan on getting off it’s fine but if you do be prepared to wait. Every time we got off we waited about 30 min for the next trolley. I wasted more time waiting for the trolley. I could have hopped in an Uber faster. I would not recommend.

Underwhelming operation. - The concept is good for this tour, but it was not managed properly. There can be long waits to get back on the trolley after you get off at a stop. Promises that the next trolley will pick you up can be inaccurate. They don't have control over the flow of people coming and going. We waited a couple times close to an hour to get back on. During peak times your better off walking! The drivers are generally very informative and helpful. This issue is out of their control.

WORST Experience in Boston! - WARNING: Use at your own risk! Terrible experience. NO Customer Service. Expensive, Two tickets were $110. We made two stops. After the 3rd stop, the trolley never returned. They were still in operation but they refused to stop at the designated stop. Not One but TWO trolleys passed us right by as we stood at the designated stop, which happened to be RIGHT IN FRONT of their storefront by Boston Commons. We called the number on the brochure FIVE (5) times to try to figure out what was going on. Twice we were hung up on. Twice we went to voicemail. Once the call was answered and a guy told us to wait right where we were and a trolley would be along in 20 minutes. Forty minutes later, no trolley had arrived. We had to WALK all the way across Boston to get back to our hotel. Then, I called the next day to complain. I was emailed a refund form to fill out. It was extensive and I had to attach a copy of my receipt. It's been two weeks now and I haven't even received acknowledgement of them receiving the form. I hope this review costs them Many, Many times more than the $110 they scammed us out of. Expensive, no commitment to service, worst customer service I've ever experienced, cast a bad memory over our entire trip to Boston. Screw this company - the only way they're still operating is they take your money and SCREW YOU!

Terrible - Waited in line for over an hour at the tour kiosk by our cruise ship with about 200 other people, two buses pasted, and they were full. We were told by the tour company at the kiosk that three of their drivers called out that day. They would not grantee that they would get us back to our ship on time. Obviously, no contingency plan. Got our money back.
