Customer Reviews
Chanta was knowledgeable and fun as our guide, I would recommend to anyone who likes seafood.
What a great experience. Even though we live in New Hampshire, and have been into Boston frequently, Alex our guide showed us to several new places which were very enjoyable. The observation deck was a pleasant surprise. Would highly recommend.
Tour guide provided much information on Boston and the area we were visiting both from a historical standpoint as well as what was going on currently. Unfortunately, the food part of the food tour was underwhelming both in selection and quality. I was excited to get to try a Lobster roll but was disappointed in that the roll contained shell as well as a bedding of lettuce. T .
Response from Virgin Gifts
Hello AC, Thank you for taking a moment to leave this review. I am so happy to hear that your guide was knowledgeable and informative about current and past events in Boston, I will be sure to share your kind words. It saddens me that the food did not exceed your expectations, and I can understand your disappointment with that as typically trying new foods is the most exciting part. However, I am hopeful that you still had an amazing time and that your day was entertaining and filled with fun. Regards, Briana
