Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this tour? Thinking about gifting it to my family.

A: There isn't a strict age limit, but it's best suited for kids ages 10 and up who can enjoy the walk and activities. The tour covers quite a bit of ground, and there's a lot to take in, so younger kids might get restless. Just make sure they’re able to keep up with the pace, especially around Boston and Harvard.

Q: What should I wear for this tour? Is there a lot of walking?

A: Comfortable walking shoes are a must since you'll be exploring on foot quite a bit. Boston's streets can be uneven, especially in areas like Beacon Hill. Dress in layers too, because the weather can change quickly. The air-conditioned van is great for breaks, but you'll want to be prepared for the outdoors!

Q: Can this tour be rescheduled if the weather doesn’t cooperate?

A: Yes! The provider is really flexible with rescheduling in case of bad weather. Just reach out to them directly to arrange a new date. They usually recommend doing this a day or two in advance, just to be safe. It’s better to enjoy the tour without worrying about rain!

Just did the Boston & Cambridge Icons tour, and WOW!

I recently took the Boston & Cambridge Icons: Private 7-Hour Discovery Tour and it was amazing! Our guide was super knowledgeable and we hit all the must-see spots like the Old North Church and Harvard Yard. The morning coffee and cannoli were delicious too! The van was comfy for our group of five, and we got to take tons of photos at each site. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to dive into some local history!

Thinking of gifting the Boston tour, but has anyone done it?

I'm really considering this tour as a gift for my parents. They love history and culture! I saw that it includes breakfast and stops for lunch. Can anyone share their experiences? Were the guides helpful? I want to make sure it’s worth it!
