Daniela – GermanyJuly 10, 2023 – Verified booking
The excursion was great. The two guides Carlo (English & Italian) and Armin (German) entertained on the route with entertaining information. Armin had some insider tips for us for NY, thanks for that. Boston was definitely worth the rather long journey. Very clear recommendation.

I loved the trip, despite being a long way away and we spent very little time in Boston, I thought it was really worth it. our guide was excellent, but having him act as a guide for Germans, Spaniards and Brazilians on the same trip was a bad point of the tour, because he was unable to give the attention that he himself, I believe, would have liked to have given.

We were unlucky and passed 2 fatal accidents and didn't arrive at Harvard until midday. The German speaking guide was ill. Nevertheless, the tour was good and the program was not shortened. It was just a long day from 6.30am - midnight
