Sam did an excellent job. He is very knowledgeable and presented the information well. We did the half day tour, but i wished we’d done the full day.

Made history come alive. Good combination of riding and walking. Wasn't too long and gave you a sense of what the distances we're. Enjoyed the quick stops at homes of famous people from the mid 1860's

A great way to hear the story behind the beginning of the revolution. Having visited Boston almost every year for over a decade, it was refreshing to leave Downtown Boston, and visit the actual sites where the battles happened. The tour guide provides interesting historical stories along the way. Just a shame there was a huge snow downpour the weekend before my tour ... so didn't get to see much greenery on the battle fields. So avoid the cold of winter!
