We loved our walking tour with Alan. He provided a wonderful history of Boston while showing us the sites of the city. He adjusted our tour based upon our interests and the length of time of our tour. His sense of humor was well received and his knowledge gave us a wonderful perspective of Boston. Highly recommend Alan!
Alan was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable. It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with him.
Alan was so well versed in Boston and its history, we couldn't have picked a better guide. A Knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide, thanks to Alan for showing us Boston!
Alan was a fantastic tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He knows Boston very well and provided great commentary. I highly recommend him!
Alan was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and helpful. A natural teacher of history and an architecture enthusiast, he walked our party of seven through neighborhoods, parks and historical eras, leaving us gasping for air (I don't know how you do it, Alan) but also for more: information, inside jokes, lovely stories. Multumesc, Alan! (that's "thank you" in Romanian).
