      It was great, the food was good and the area is pretty!!! We got to visit some really cool places and Glenn was a lovely person to travel with! He explained everything in great detail and was very organized. (He even carried my shark for me :3)

      Thank you for your kind words Mackenzie, I enjoyed traveling with you as well. I'd be happy to carry your shark for you at any time.

      We had different tour guides for different days of our trip. One tour guide decided on an unplanned stop, tried to force someone into an uncomfortable situation, and split our group up against our protest. All other aspects of the trip were wonderful, including the other tour guides.

      Thank you for your review Taylor, it certainly helps in the planning for our next trip to Boston. Sorry the tour guide split your group like that. We had one tour guide for Boston and one for Salem. Your review certainly helps me when choosing a tour guide for our next trip in Boston. Thank you for spending the time to write it. And, thank you for your 5 star review, I appreciate it.

      This was the best trip I have ever been on. Glenn was the most respectful and wonderful funny guy and he let me give him a nickname. He carried around my plushies for me. It was a lot of walking and it was so worth it I had so much fun. I definitely plan on going on his next trip.

      Thank you for the great review Lillian. It was great spending time with your group. I'd be happy to carry around your plushies once again next year. Sincerely, Glennjamin

      Our trip had an airline cancellation to start, but Glenn was able to work and still make the trip happen. We had a great trip with hotels in the city, allowing access to lots of sites. The tour guides were good, and we saw a ton of both cities.

      The trip was so much fun. We got to see so many great sights and had good food. Our group leader was the best ever like usual. We had a couple flight issues that he dealt with like a pro. I would absolutely recommend this trip to everyone.

      Recently we traveled with Glen on a whirlwind tour of various historical sites out east. It was all fabulously organized with all the details covered. I felt 100% comfortable with our bus driver. How stress free to not have to drive in some of these highly congested cities. Everything we wanted was included. So, one warning to the wise, plan at least one night midweek to arrive back to the hotel early. You'll be glad for the extra rest

      Glen did an amazing job directing our group while we traveled. He has an upbeat atritude and listened to any concerns that we had. The trip itself was so interesting... my 8, 15, and 17 year old kids never had a complaint. If we travel again, we will be giving Glen a call!
