Traveler Reviews

I totally DO NOT recommend this area if you come as a family. I have a combination of couples, teens and children. My husband and I paid over $700 for a hop on hop off city tour. It’s definitely an area for rich people who have way too much money but no manners?? Welcome in the area you are NOT. After spending $150 on pastries at TATTE and our discriminatory experience I refused to spend another cent and am taking my money where bigotry is not so obvious!!!! This is COVID hateful world we’ve become????

I took this tour in May and loved it. The tour itself is fascinating and extremely well researched. It was fun getting to peek into the history, architecture, and culture of Beacon Hill. I now find myself in Chicago with some time on my hands and am wishing this company had a tour here.

At last, I discovered a tour designed with my mind in mind! I am not one for organized tours with guides. This Beacon Hill tour was great. It was at times humorous, often poignant, and packed with interesting information. I loved not having to show up at a scheduled time or wait on other people. I got hungry, paused the tour, and slipped into a restaurant for a bite - then pushed play and resumed walking. I would recommend this tour for anyone who likes to see a city on their own terms. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
