HIGHLY RECOMMEND! - This was an amazing experience. It was nive to go back in time & load a cannon, then shoot the cannon. It was a pleasure to meet the founders too. All the employees are very knowledgeable & patient. Great price too!

Best history tour - Dylan was very knowledgeable about the history of Boston and the Revolutionary War! The innovative headset allowed us to experience history as it was back then. Brilliant creation in allowing us to see history as it was.
