What can I say but if you have the time and you love history go on this walking tour.

Published on Jan, 2025

Very informative and interesting walking tour with a guide who is passionate about his subject. I learnt a lot about Paul Revere and others who were the heroes shaping the country for how it is today . I also found out about other interesting names from the past and how they lived in the Old Boston. Thank you Paulie!

Very informative walking tour and great guide!

Pauline could not have been a better guide to have on a walking tour. He is passionate about his city and subject and describes the history with a visual perspective. I understood the whole historical factor of it and I found it very interesting. I only wish that I had gone on a day when "mother nature "was kinder to us as it was freezing cold and really icy winds! It makes it hard to concentrate and that was no fault of Paulie. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys history and would like to know more about the Old Boston.
