Jack was an awesome tour guide, and made the tour so much fun, even through the pouring rain! It was a great experience, although intended more for tourists than Bostonians, but even so, I would absolutely recommend this experience to any donut lover visiting Boston.
Really enjoyed this tour. The guides were friendly and informative. The donuts were fantastic, great selection from a few places and all delicious: a fun way to see part of the city!
