Went on the tour with family of three kids (8,12,12). Our guide Harlan, I think that was his name, was fantastic. The tour overall was just so-so....kids lost steam after the first stop. It is something different which I enjoyed but overall I thought the whole experience was just so-so.…

Assigned to the front seats, not able to see much because we were behind the driver seat. I’d recommend taking out the first branch seat on each of the trolley

We really enjoyed the tour. Meaghan was a wonderful tour guide. Thank you for sharing the history of Boston with us.

I feel bad rating this "terrible" but the high review average is what led me to book this tour and it's EXTREMELY OVERRATED, so I feel the need to bring the average down. The tour begins and spends basically 90% of the time visiting different sites around Boston Common. Each spot we stopped we heard an overly long, disjointed and historically questionable story that could've been condensed down to a minute or two... but then the tour would be over in 15 mins because they don't cover enough ground AT ALL. We only went to Boston Common and the Omni, and we flew through the Omni so fast it hardly felt like a stop. It would be cool to see more sites of hauntings and spooky places in a city as historic as Boston. The price is good, I would be furious if I spent more than $20 on this - because it was disappointing. I would call it a "spooky" Boston Common tour and just be up front with people. I can see many of the positive reviews mention their host Megan or Aline but we didn't have either of them, so it must make a huge difference who your guide is, but we didn't get a choice so that's too bad.…

Despite a rainy night, we loved it! The perfect balance of spooky & history for our group. Our guide Aline was a master storyteller, holding the attention of our 8 year old and adults for 90 minutes.
