Great free walking tour around the mall suitable for all the family! Plenty to keep the kids entertained and we learned a lot too, these guys know how to do a tour!

Such a great introduction to the city! I downloaded the audio book before we left and then we followed the trail, plus a few extra stops at places that caught our eye on the way. Free and fun!

If you only do one thing when you go to Boston, then it has to be this, it has everything: historical interest, human stories, a great walk, parks, you simply have to do this! We joined a public tour, but I guess you could also forge ahead alone.

I'd highly recommend the art deco walking tour, loads of great architecture to see, as well as other interesting places that it takes you past. Getting to know a city on foot is the best way to feel that i've done things properly in my opinion!

Great walking tour, the guide was informative and engaging and the pace was good. I really liked using this as a way to get to know the city and as a base for sightseeing the rest of my stay. Highlights were the medieval bits and of course Trinity College
