    Absolutely Amazing!
    Tiffany_T, Jan 2024
    This was absolutely one of the best tour experiences I’ve ever had. Maria arrived on time and was so upbeat and friendly. She had an extensive knowledge of the city and gave such great stories about everywhere we visited. Maria even had flowers for my mom to celebrate her 73rd birthday. I would highly recommend this tour or any that Maria offers to everyone visiting Boston!

    Thank you so much for your review! I'm so glad that I was able to show you and your mom around Boston for her birthday trip!
    Absolutely fantastic!!

    Maria was fantastic! Our tour was a lot of fun and Maria knows so many fun facts about Boston! She balances just the right amount of walking and driving. We skipped lunch and drove out to Boston University and Northeastern so my daughter who’s a Junior in High School could see the areas. If you want to get the real Boston tour this is one you don’t want to miss!!

    Maria was our tour guide and she was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable, fun and energetic!!
    Informative for history buffs

    Best for 2 or 3 people, seating not comfortable for 4th adult. The viewing for extra adult was very limited, would be better on a bus. Guide was lovely and very informative on history, but maybe could slow speech down a little.

    Hi Debbie, Sorry to hear that your experience wasn't outstanding. As I mentioned during the tour, at any time you had the option to move to the empty back row of the minivan, with plenty of seating and window access. The tour vehicle is a Toyota Sienna minivan, which seats 6+ passengers, and other passengers in your group also offered to switch seats with you during the tour. I appreciate your feedback on speaking cadence, and will work on that. I'm always looking to improve, and I would really appreciate if you could message me any more details about your experience! All the Best, Maria
