Amazing tour of Boston

Published on Oct, 2024

Peterā€™s knowledge. He provided history of Boston that was very interesting. We had an overview of all the sites all around the City. He stopped to allow us to take photos when we asked. Great tour for a first time visitor to Boston. Thank you Peter for a wonderful day!

WORTH THE TIME AND EXPENSE

Published on Mar, 2024

Peter B was our inestimable tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, thorough and gracious. Couldn't have asked for a better guide. Our tour ran long due to traffic but, after we assured him that we had no other pressing appointments, Peter spent the time needed on all the sites along the way. Highly recommend.

Informational from a local perspective.

Published on Nov, 2023
