Very interesting; the tour guide is knowlegable and a true movie buff. This is the only Boston tour that will take you to Southie... If you enjoy the silver screen, take this tour.

Faults: The limo has black-out windows that interfere with seeing things. Because of traffic, the limo can't slow down, which means that you'll only get a glance at certian locations.

I have taken many Boston tours. This was certainly the most unique. They showed us place were movies happened that I never would have known. The show clips of movies and pointed out were that scene had taken place. Being on the small bus that had other movie buffs was a lot of fun. A stop at the "L Street Tavern" was a treat.
