Adam and Atlas were wonderful! He was very knowledgeable and was so kind to take things slow due to my husband's recovery from knee surgeries. We would highly recommend this tour!

Adam is one of the finest and most knowledgeable tour guides I have ever met. Smart, witty, funny, and both dispells myths about the period whilst also teaching you stuff you never knew about 18th century Boston, keeping you laughing and engaged all the way. Cannot recommend his tours enough!

Owner Adam Hodges St Claire helped us arrange a suitable date and time for a private tour, because our schedule was limited, and I did not want to be in a big group with other operators, nor end up having a canceled tour like I have read in other reviews of tour groups. Sydney was costumed (explained authentic features), funny, and shared facets of the colonists' life that I think might not be presented on other tours or websites. Sydney is a lifetime historian and current researcher. Our guide offered the option to customize our tour and was very flexible with the meeting time. We really liked the suggested meeting place which was different than most tours (since we could see the other groups traipsing below us). We learned so much about the realities for Bostonians and other colonists, and how events and pressures shaped their galvanized actions -- that we kept thinking about it all day! We loved our time with Sydney and would highly recommend Authentic Revolutionary Boston Tours for a private tour.
