Thank you Stewie! - Stewie absolutely made our day. My daughter and I really enjoyed the tour. Stewie was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, thoughtful and a really nice person. It is amazing all he knows about Boston’s history. We would have never been able to see everything on our own. It was by far the best driving tour of a city I have ever been on thanks to Stewie!

Best tour👍 - This is the best tour I've ever been in. Stewie a very knowledgeable, talkative and patient guy. He was also very friendly to my six-year-old son and he took us to many places in the city center, in addition to the places on the list, and several other places. Pick-up and drop-off was also carried out.

We really appreciated the way he personalized the tour to what we wanted to see. He was extremely accommodating to us. This tour is well worth it!!

It REALLY is the best! - Just had the BEST day with our tour guide, Mr. Stewie. We were picked up right on time in a beautiful, clean, Lincoln Navigator. The tour started immediately upon entering the vehicle with a history of Back Bay. From then on the information and details we received were non-stop. It was the perfect way to see all of the important sights in Boston. Harvard, Bunker Hill, the USS Constitution, and the Museum of Science are just a few of the places we stopped to explore. Not to mention the (at least) dozen other historical spots we drove to. All were super interesting, however what really made this tour exceptional was Mr Stewie’s attention to our comfort at all times. We are a Florida family of 5 including 10,12 & 14 year old and Mr Stewie made sure we had plenty of stops to warm up and stretch our legs. He had a variety of drinks on hand for us and even took us to a great local lunch spot. The little details (chocolate chip cookie stop anyone?) made it all the better. The whole day felt like my smartest friend showing me their favorite city. I can’t say enough good things about it. This was a GREAT value. If you’re spending a couple of days in Boston and just want to see all the good stuff, don’t hesitate. This is truly Boston’s Best Tour.

Private Boston highlights tour - Customized private trip guide was knowledgeable on additional Boston facts. Tour in trip advisor sold out earlier at 9a. We took 2p but by end of tour seeing some sites in dark made it hard to view . Guide offered to start earlier and we should of because of daylight Best to start this tour before 112 or any other that is at least 3 hours in winter as traffic is very bad in Boston snd takes extra time to drive by things and gets dark by 4 or 5. Our driver Stewey was an excellent driver. Nice clean SUV. Great value and private.
