#1. Google map is WRONG. Don't go to the Court House. You start across the water. LOOK FOR THE WALKING TOUR LOGO on the Google map. #2. MUST DO. Tom, the history teacher, was our guide. FUN, INFORMATIVE & Entertaining. #3. Reasonably fit. We're well fed 50+, active adults. The pace was comfortable & we stopped at benches to sit while Tom shared Boston Crime stories. #4. Time: it was almost 3hrs & we loved every minute. We would've spent the day with Tom. Tom, being a native to the city, shared some local eateries. We went to Fiori's and YUM. Definitely worth the time & we're happy to tip well as the tour price was very reasonable. Thanks Tom.
Omar was completely amazing with his tour. He got to know a little if everyone one-on-one while walking site to site. The route was planned perfectly with bathroom and sitting breaks. Omar recommended many books that helped with his research to put this tour together. He was knowledgeable and had many funny yet corny jokes. I would recommend Omar to anyone to comes to visit Boston and wants to know about crime history.
Took the tour with my mom and we both thoroughly enjoyed it! Omar was an awesome guide. Very knowledgeable and quick with the corny jokes. The tour lasts about 2 hours, but I felt as though I could’ve kept going trying to learn more about Boston’s history. I would go on the tour again without any question!
Absolutely a MUST do if you're visiting Boston. You get to see so much of the city and learn about it's history. Omar was a superb host with vast knowledge of the city and solid arsenal of dad jokes. There are plenty of times you stop and sit so the walking never got too bad. If you're on the fence, just do it!
Omar was friendly and well studied. The tour was well paced with plenty of opportunities to sit while he details events and locations. He's also a native so he's a wealth of knowledge on Boston in general. It was such a good tour that I'll forgive his allegiance to Tom Brady and dad jokes
This was a BLAST!! Omar knows every detail, from the precise dates and locations to every tidbit of information you'd ever need to learn all about the history of crime in Boston. He knew exactly where we were going and we saw magnificent scenes of the city. Our group was only 6 people, which we loved! Can't wait to come back and do it again!
While it was very hot our tour guide Omar was OUTSTANDING. Very knowledgeable and intelligent also very considerate with stopping in shady places! Overall the best tour of Boston I've experienced yet!
Sorry for delay in commenting. We had a fantastic tour with Omar, an authentic storyteller with flair and soooo much knowledge. Scandal and aha moments of history lessons. Very cool experience. Boston has layers, take the tour to peel them back!
Went on the crime tour today, Omar was awesome. Super knowledgeable and made learning about murders fun. Great personality and would recommend if visiting Boston.
