This was a great tour , mostly because of our guide , Matt. Very informative and added lots of color to the stories. I enjoyed the ride along the coast and the stops to Kennebunkport. I was underwhelmed by the town . But was glad I took the tour

Great Day

James_C, Aug 2023

Our driver had so much knowledge of the areas we explored. We had 3 stops to explore the areas. Our tour guide let us know the good restaurants.

Loved seeing the Nubble...

Melody_S, Jul 2023

Loved seeing the Nubble lighthouse. It would have been a better trip if there was more narration with history & details.

Fun Day Trip

aimee_r, Jul 2023

My two teen daughters and I took this tour on the last day of our trip to Boston. It was a great day! Our guide was informative and fun. We enjoyed all the little stops and our time in Kennebunkport.

Great Experience

Sue_H, Jul 2023

Great tour

Desiree_J, Jun 2023

The trip was much more than I expected. It was so great that when I return to Boston, I'll probably do it again. The owner was sincere and genuine in making sure we had a great time. It was great to be able to sit back relax, take in the history, and enjoy the scenery without worrying about driving.

JUST AWESOME!

Stephen_R, Aug 2022

The entire tour -- NARRATION, ON-TIME ARRIVALS, HELPFUL HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS. Our tour guide(Matt) was most helpful and informative.

Great way to see the coast/Maine from Boston

Kate_D, Jul 2022

Maine and New Hampshire were beautiful. Wished we could have stayed longer. We did the lobster tour-fun for kids, lots of people on bigger boat. Loved hearing history and facts all along the way. Might could have cut off our hour in Portsmith and had more time in Maine.

Day trip Boston to Maine

Antonia_G, Jul 2022

Matt was a great tour guide, do yourself a favor and take the day trip to Maine. So beautiful 😻 and relaxing. Lobster tour was a little rocky for us lol

Amazing day trip from Boston to Kennebunkport ME

George_T, Jul 2022

The ride from Boston following the coast up to Kennebunkport ME was beautiful. Our driver Matt was entertaining with his knowledge and history of each stop.

Good day trip. Cute little town

Nadia_R, Jul 2022

Excellent service. Small group of people. Matt knows a lot about the area and you can see he has good experience. He was always helpful and attentive. Only suggestion is to do a stop somewhere along the NH coast line so we can appreciate it more.

Great time!

Kathleen_K, Jul 2022

Matt, the tour guide, was very nice and informative. Lovely day trip up the coast with beautiful sites along the way. Take the tour!

A trip well worth a day of your time!

Deena_D, Jun 2022

It was a breeze being picked up right from our hotel. The van was comfortable and spacious enough and we thoroughly enjoyed our tour guide, Matt. He is a plethora of knowledge and passed the time on the trip sharing information and historical facts about Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. We went the day after a holiday and some places were still closed, so that was a bummer. Despite that, this trip was a great way to relax and see the coast line up to Maine without the drive that goes along with it. Well worth the money!

Maine Tour

Nancy_H, Jun 2022

We enjoyed seeing the Nubble Lighthouse and Bush compound. Matt did an excellent job providing information along the way!

Maine with Matt

Sam_P, Jun 2022

When you combine a knowledgeable guide with a friendly group of fellow tourists a totally enjoyable day is the result. Matt is the guide/driver/owner of this excursion company and it was a pleasure spending the day with him. The New Hampshire and Maine coastline was beautiful and the towns were delightful. Take this tour. You will be glad you did.

Cheated

Layla_S, Aug 2021

Our subway train was delayed a few minutes. I stayed in contact with our driver the entire time but he left us 2 minutes before we got there. I could not get a refund, so $250 down the drain.

Response from Host, Aug 2021

Hi Layla, Thanks for writing this review. I’m very sorry you could not make the Kennebunkport tour. As stated in TripAdvisor as well as my policy section of the listing, we only wait 5 additional minutes after your assigned pick-up time. If you miss your assigned pick-up time NO refund will be issued. This is pretty standard with all tour companies. On Thursday, your scheduled pick-up time was for 7am at Marriott Long Wharf. You were taking the train in from out of town. The night prior you were advised by me to leave in plenty of time if you were unsure about our transit system. You agreed and said you would be early. When I arrived at 7am I called to see where you were. You said 5 minutes away. I said great! I’ll wait, but I can’t wait any longer than that. 5 minutes goes by, 10 minutes goes by, 15 MORE minutes goes by. I called to see where you were and no response. At that point I made an executive decision and decided it was time to keep moving. NO refunds are issued for instances like this, I’m so very sorry. In the future, if you decide to come back to do a tour, I can heavily discount an excursion if you call me directly. Best, Matthew H New England Excursions 617-706-5284

Matt is the Man for a guided tour!!!

Cassaundra_D, Aug 2021

Matt was truly amazing! I loved how attentive he was. I also loved how he shared the honest truth about how most of us learn American history versus the TRUE story!

Awesome trip on the coast

Anna_M, Jul 2021

He was awesome. Very knowledgeable about the entire area of Boston through New Hampshire and Maine. He was funny as well.

Great day up the New England coast from Boston

Deborah_M, Jul 2021

Beautiful tour of New Hampshire and Maine coastal areas. Matt is a wonderful tour guide and we very much enjoyed this day.
