Hello! Briefly, about me: enjoy travel and outdoor activities- bicycling and sailing (if time allows it). My hobby is, first and foremost, taking care of my family and home. I enjoy reading and have always had an interest in history and the early years of the New England colonies and the United States. Licensed Tour Guide in Concord, Massachusetts. BA in Classical Studies and English Literature. I'm interested in the settlement of Massachusetts, Native American History, the colonization of America and the War of Independence. Boston features prominently in these periods of American History. Have started several small businesses since moving to Boston, and worked as a part-time tour guide in Salem, MA. I was employed by an embassy in Washington, D. C. for 4 years as a logistics person, transportation fleet manager, and driver. My experience includes working as an editor with an Epigraphy Journal: Epigraphic Society Occasional Publications, founded by Harvard Professor Barry Fell in 1976. The most memorable day as a tour guide in Salem involved stopping a spooked horse (Buck) while driving a horse-drawn carriage behind St. Peters Church on Brown Street. I conduct tours in Boston, Lexington, Concord, Plymouth and Salem. Tours of the Freedom Trail, Greater Boston and Cambridge, as well as all-day Newport, RI tours. I can provide special itineraries including a Coastal By-Ways Tour: -Gloucester/ Rockport, passing through Newburyport as far as Ogunquit, Maine. We can alter this according to your interests! Tours of the Pioneer Valley and the Mohawk Trail, and Autumn Foliage Tours. These are private car trips in Cadillac sedan, SUV, or the Mercedes Metris 7-passenger wagon. We provide Walking Tours of Beacon Hill and the Freedom Trail in Boston. The most enjoyable tours are when clients have a personal experience of Boston. I shape itineraries according to your interests. ·BA in Classical Studies and English Literature. ·4 years working for an Embassy as transportation fleet manager and driver.

    Curtis was outstanding in every way. He was so knowledgeable, accommodating beyond belief, and truly made our tour the very best experience possible. We were so fortunate to have found Curtis and would recommend him with 10 stars if it was possible. Thank you Curtis for making our trip so memorable.

    Curtis B. did a great job taking us through the Freedom Trail. He is extremely knowledgeable of the subject and had many great tidbits of information to add to tie everything together. My only issue was it was a 5 hour tour and we did not take a restroom/water/sit down break. We would tour again with Curtis B. when back in Boston. Kim K

    Curtis is a very knowledgeable and experienced tour guide, unfortunately those sitting in the back seats could not hear him....a PA system would resolve this. Would also suggest that ice be used to chill the water. This is the first private tour that I have done, and I found that four hours is too long for me! Boston is a beautiful city....clean, and very walkable with...
