Couldn’t have been better!

This tour was SO worth the price! Neal was an amazing guide…I can’t imagine seeing more sights in one day. His history and commentary were excellent. His stories and sense of humor were entertaining. His van was clean and comfortable. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour. With Neal as your tour guide you will not be disappointed.

Great tour and learned a lot of history!

Neal is really knowledgeable and very accommodating. Our tour was like a virtual history lesson and we learned some surprising and interesting things that you just won’t find in history textbooks or guide books. We really got a feel for Boston and all it has to offer past, present and future. Neil took us to our lunch destination of choice and waiting patiently while we grabbed a quick bite. If you want more than just a surface level knowledge of Boston, you know…the basic tourist level plain vanilla info, then I recommend touring with Neal. His van is the perfect sight seeing vehicle with great sight lines, big windows and very comfortable. Great experience overall.

Unforgettable!

My mother is a history buff approaching 90 years-old and she had never been to Boston! We booked a tour with Neal so she could see the highlights without strugglng to keep up with a public tour, and I'm so glad we did. Neal took us on a custom tour with just the right mix of walking and driving. We saw everything we wanted to see and much more, thanks to Neal's expertise in the area and his attention to our interests. We took a deep dive into Boston's and our country's history, and enjoyed iconic neighborhoods that miraculously survived Boston's growth and development. I'm sure the Duck boat captains and costumed guides are great, but Neal is a gifted teacher and master storyteller. He is an astute, thoughtful guide and we are grateful to him for making Mom's introduction to Boston so fabulous.

Great tour of Boston

Great private 4 hr tour of Boston. Part of our tour was walking the North End then driving through other parts of the city. Neal, our tour guide was amazing. I can’t imagine anyone knowing more about the city than he does. His van was new and clean. Our teenage boys were interested the entire tour. Must do.
