If your short on time, or first visit to Boston, use the Old Town Trolley. It stops at all of the top spots and includes a harbour tour. Avoid the the parking problems and expense. Most hotels have a shuttle pickup that takes you to the starting point in downtown Boston. It was nice getting on and off at Fenway...

Enjoyed the tour immensely. Got off only once at Boston Commons which is a great area. Had lunch and then made our next connection outside of Cheers and trolley was just pulling up. For the rest of the tour, Crackerjack was our guide and the best ever. Very entertaining. It was also nice to do the free harbor tour and...

Taking the Hop On Hop Off city tour is the first thing we do when we arrive at a new city. We were not disappointed with the Old Town Trolley tour which included a 45 minute harbor tour. The ticket is good for 48 hours. The first day we completed the tour without getting off (about 2 hours). The second...

Old Town was a wonderful way to check out Boston before starting off. Each and every tour guide had great stories to share. Because you can get on and off all day, we enjoyed about 5 different guides! The best part was - that when you bought a one day ticket, you also got a second day free and a...

Great way to see the city. Of course you hear the same stories on each trip but each driver puts a little different spin on them so it isn't too bad.

We never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes for a trolley. We had three different tour guides (Jesse James, Sgt. Friday, and Lobstahback) all were very informative and entertaining.

This was a good tour! You can either stay on the bus the whole time or get off-on as many times as you want! You also get a Free harbor cruise and can use it the next day so that was a plus!!! It was really good.

A very affordable way to see Boston. You can hop on and off at your leisure. Great especially if you're staying further out from the attractions. We had a stop in front of our hotel, the Westin Waterfront. The only complaint was the trolleys run until 5:00 which seems a little early but this seems to be the standard though.

This was such a value, with the ticket covering 2 days in a row + a harbour tour. I could get off or on at any stop, catch a ride from one to another when I was tired or didn't want to take the T, and it really gave me a great overall scope of the city before setting off...
