Great Freedom Trail Tour - Adam was an incredibly knowledgeable guide who dressed in an historical military outfit. He was a treasure trove of information about historical Boston. He helped us navigate with a wheelchair through historic Boston! Fabulous guide!

AWESOME PRIVATE tour with ARBT Sydney! - Owner Adam Hodges St Claire helped us arrange a suitable date and time for a private tour, because our schedule was limited, and I did not want to be in a big group with other operators, nor end up having a canceled tour like I have read in other reviews of tour groups. Sydney was costumed (explained authentic features), funny, and shared facets of the colonists' life that I think might not be presented on other tours or websites. Sydney is a lifetime historian and current researcher. Our guide offered the option to customize our tour and was very flexible with the meeting time. We really liked the suggested meeting place which was different than most tours (since we could see the other groups traipsing below us). We learned so much about the realities for Bostonians and other colonists, and how events and pressures shaped their galvanized actions -- that we kept thinking about it all day! We loved our time with Sydney and would highly recommend Authentic Revolutionary Boston Tours for a private tour.

Historic walking tour - I contacted Adam to provide a tailored walk for a work group. He was able to provide something specific for us. It was a great experience for those of us from out of Town. He gave us some historic highlights as well as some food insights to Boston too. He has a great sense of humor. We enjoyed the walk and would definitely recommend meeting him in the future. Thank you once again.
