Lexington to Concord Fab Four trip - Tim was a wonderful driver & tour guide for the four of us. He brought our trip alive with his historical perspective & illustrating the route of Paul Revere’s midnight ride & how it had led to the start of the revolutionary war. Tim was awesome!

Lexington and Concord educational tour. - Great time exploring Lexington, Concord, and environs. Descriptive drive along the Charles River, quick summary of MIT, then on to Lexington, learning about the British advance down the road that we were traveling. We spent time at the visitor’s center and on the green, then drove to Condors and the old North Bridge. Drove back to Concord and had lunch at the Colonial Inn before continuing back to Cambridge. Took a side trip Brattle St to look at the massive colonial mansions. Our tour ended at the Harvard Art museum where we enjoyed the wide variety of art as well as the beautiful Harvard campus.

Perfect Fit for Us - Nabil was our tour guide, and he was awesome. Answered a million questions from my wife, my 13 year old, and me. He was extremely flexible, but yet we stayed on our schedule.

Mrs. Lexie is a great tour guide - Mrs. Lexie is a great tour guide! She told us many historical stories during the tour and gave us a lot of information about the local school, which was what we cared about! She also took us to a lot of places we wanted to go! We will ask her to take us on a tour next time!

Great low stress tour - Nabil was a great tour guide and host. The tour is very flexible to what we wanted to see and do. Much better than touring with dozens of strangers. Thanks for a great time.

THE BEST - Alison was absolutely AMAZING!! She was funny, and very accommodating to my 88 year old dad. She was nice enough to drop us off where we wanted to be downtown, and she was very knowledgeable about the history. She made the history come to life. 10/10 I would use her again, and recommend her to everyone.

History and SO much more! - By the last day of an adventure, we’re usually starting to wane a bit, but today is one for our record books! Nabil (from WeVenture) had texted last night that he was excited to squire 2 old ladies to Lexington and Concord…but little did we know!! This is our first experience with a private tour guide, but it definitely won’t be the last! He picked us up at the door of our hotel and spent the rest of the day treating us both like a combination of his grandmother and the Queen. His knowledge of the Revolutionary War was unmatched by any scholar I’ve ever heard and to have him insist on walking at my slow pace, helping us both over every rough place as he enthusiastically shared these hallowed sites was the travel experience of a lifetime! We started with a drive through Harvard on to a snack stop at a 143 year old farmer’s market before following the exact path Paul Revere rode to alert the colonists in Lexington and Concord. We heard the stories (and the legends) and saw evidence of Longfellow’s poetic license in “The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere”. In addition to the war that birthed our nation, we heard the stories and saw the homes of literary giants Thoreau, Emerson and Alcott. We saw the spot where the first casualties occurred as a result of “the shot heard round the world”. We saw…we saw…we saw…I could write a book of what we saw! I’m sorry it took 82 years for me to hear the whole story in one telling from an incredible young man from Lebanon who has a deep and abiding love for our nation and its story. It’s a day I’ll NEVER forget what we saw!

Best Tour In Boston! - This private tour of Lexington and Concord with Nabil was the highlight of our trip to Boston. I’ve never met a more knowledgeable young man with such a deep love for Revolutionary War history. His knowledge is a perfect match for his enthusiastic skills at making every site and every story become so real. Should I ever return to Boston, he would be the first guide I would seek out.
