My husband and I would have forgiven our driver -guide had the tour been uninterestingly dull or boring due to the weather conditions (heavy snow poured all day). However it proved to be one of the most entertaining and informative tours we've ever had. We thoroughly recommend Boston as a destination rich in the early history of this great nation.
Excellent trip - something different to do outside of Boston city at this time of year... beautiful countryside and full of history. Our guide / driver Francis was brilliant - he had lots of interesting stories...highly recommend this tour.
This tour was a great overview of these three historical cities near Boston. The driver/tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining sharing many stories and historical facts with us. A great tour reasonably priced. Take one!
The trip is very instructive. Our conductor is very knowledgeable, and answers to all of our quetions. Besides, it is a very pleasant sightseeing trip.
We were picked up not far room our hotel and then went to meet others going on the tour. The tour guide was excellent and gave us tons of information along the drive. Took pictures through the plastic of the tour bus and they came out nice and clear. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Boston area. For the price we got a great tour and a nice ride up to Concord and back, Very pleased!
Loved the tour, although not long enough. Our guide was the BEST. He gave us fascinating and interesting history. Would have liked more time to look around Lexington and Concord. A handout of places seen and visited would be nice. Left me wanting more history. Loved standing where our patriots did!
This was my favorite tour in boston because it included lovely places in lexington and concorde including old north bridge.
This was really good. The tour guide was great and knew her stuff. We enjoyed strolling the campus of Harvard U and the stop in Lexington at the historic battle site. However, we didn't realize that some great features in Concord would be "drive-bys" without at least photo opportunities. A couple of moments pulled off to the side of the road would have been really nice at Louisa May Alcott's and Ralph Waldo Emerson's houses.
We were picked up at the Holiday Inn Express and taken to the tour center first. About 15 minutes later we were put on a very comfortable bus with a very big window, perfect for snapping pictures. Our tour operator was fabulous. He spoke clearly and pointed out some very interesting spots along the way to Lexington and Concord, some of which were not even on the itinerary. We were allowed off the bus at the Lexington Visitor Center and at the Old North Bridge in Concord with plenty of time to look around and soak up our nation's history. I thing for the money we paid, this was a fantastic value, and would recommend it to anyone.
Very informative historical tour with enough time at stops to get pictures and enjoy surroundings.
Tour left and returned on time and hotel pick up was a plus. A must tour for history buffs.
This trip is orientated towards historians and now admitting I was not all that interested in history was a little concerned that the trip would be boring. I will admit that the way the tour guide presented information made the trip very interested and I came away with knowledge and would recommend this trip to travellers to Boston.
Francis the bus driver was knowledgable and very attentive to our needs. We enjoyed Lexington and Concord, but wish we had had more time to look at things, and also to go to the National Park Service Visitor Center there. Since we only took the half-day tour, we had the option of getting off the bus at Cambridge or being taken back to our hotel. I don't think the online description of this tour mentioned that and I was surprised that we weren't actually going to get a tour of Cambridge. That was the only disappointing aspect of the tour.
Interesting tour, but not really much too see as you're mostly looking at land where battles were fought. However, we drove by many historic homes and through some beautiful areas. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable which made the tour more worthwhile. Probably not too exciting for the younger crowd.
This was an excellent tour. The tour guide was excelent also. The depth of knowledge he imparted about the history of Concord & Lexington was very impressive and added to the enjoyment of the to
It was very educational and the tour guide made the empty fields and old buildings come alive. Beautiful little towns and great scenery along the way in mid October.
