Christine – United StatesNovember 23, 2023 – Verified booking
Great way to see the city! We hopped on & off several times so we experienced several guides- Townie, Hambone & North to name a few. They were all fabulous- knowledgeable as well as amusing! What was even better was when we backtracked over areas, we got different info & stories, not the same old regurgitated historical facts. Some guides have even added sound effects to their shtick! Loved it! Only drawback was long chilly waits at trolley stops: up to 30 minutes. Other than the long waits in the cold, highly recommend!

Everywhere we go we try and get on a hop on hop off bus/trolley,it’s a great way of seeing places,always best when you have a tour guide narrating rather than a recording.Boston is a great place with great places to visit,our best stop war the USS Constitution,great history.

Really enjoyed the hop on hop off old town trolley tour in Boston! Our guide, when we stayed on for the full circle, was Crafty and our whole group found him really entertaining and factual all at the same time! His attention to detail with little bonus musical moments or mini speeches were great and really added character to the tour! We'd intended to stay on but he made us want to! Disappointed when we were back at stop 14!!
