Hello from Boston, I arrived here from Ireland over 30 years ago, and as soon as I got off the plane I knew I was here to stay. I'm a huge history buff, and love to hear and read about people. I'm lucky, I have a great memory for details, names and dates, and with a touch of the "blarney" am able to tell a good story. Content is key to being a private tour guide, and I've built up a wide range of stories. I have deep knowledge of Revolutionary War, and military history, but I know that's not for everybody and can go into as much or little detail as needed. There's so much more to the Boston area than history. . . . . architecture, ghost stories, Irish migration, movies scenes, sports and colleges to name a few and so over the years I just keep adding stories and fun facts to my content. Part of what brought me to Boston was to play music, so when I'm not playing, I'm probably out listening to music or having dinner and drinks somewhere in the city. This lets me keep current with what's happening around Boston and I've loads of recommendations to pass on of places to check out. Being a private tour guide is my ideal job, I love being around and talking to people, telling and listening to stories and having some laughs. I've a glass half full outlook on life and a good humored, easy going personality. I'm an approved and licensed city tour guide, do walking tours of the Freedom Trail in Boston and driving tours around the Greater Boston area. Please send me a message if you'd like help putting a tour together, I've done a lot of private customized tours and have lots of off the beaten path ideas. Look forward to touring with you. All the best Martin Fully licensed driving tour guide. Approved to conduct driving tours by Boston Transportation Dept & Boston Police Dept. Driving a livery insured vehicle. Also licensed to conduct walking tours. none

If Salem is on your bucket list then this half day trip will let you fit it into your Boston visit. This tour is a perfect if you've always been intrigued by what happened before, during and after the witch trials of 1692. I share the historic details of this time and you can take time to visit one of the museums to get their take on events. (admission to attractions not included in price of tour). I'll take you on a walking tour through the main downtown area, and give time to visit a couple of the quirky shops. If you'd rather skip going into any of the sites, I'll use that time to take you to Marblehead for some amazing ocean views. The return journey and tour is 4 hours, I'm happy to customize it to accomplish the things you're most interested in. If you want to spend more time in Salem and see the coastline then check out my full day Boston north shore option.
