Best tour ever! - Captain Pickles is a wonderful tour guide! The stories he told and the way he told them were incredibly interesting and engaging. It was super cold out but we barely noticed because of how great the tour was. Captain Pickles’ historical knowledge is priceless. I cannot recommend a better tour!

Great fun and super interesting history - Captain pickles is extremely fun and knowledgeable . It was thanksgiving morning, it was freezing but he did everything possible to give us his best. Kids were freezing but did not want to leave. I had to drag them at the end. When we get back to Boston , we will see him again for sure . We learned so much and appreciated captain Pickles humor.

Take this tour it’s the best! - Great tour. You will hear the story of our history with a different perspective and learn things they didn’t tell you in school. Can’t say enough about what a great storyteller Captain Pickle is. Jam packed hour and a half that will keep you enthralled and entertained.

It was alright - The guide was nice, but the talk was a little disjointed and hard to follow. Finding the meeting spot and guide was easy. Would I do it again…no.
