Smartest Donuts In Town!! - This is my second tour with Underground Donut Tours and I cannot wait to find a tour in every city I travel to! Our experience began in the stunning lobby of the Charles Hotel where the history and lore tangibly surrounded us. Jackie greeted us with excitement and enthusiasm, taking the time to get to know each of us before setting off on our adventure. We were soon ushered upstairs where we were greeted by the minds behind the creations we were about to indulge; the head pastry chef and assistant baker that came up with the flavor combinations we were about to enjoy. The intimacy bred allure that drew you in to the experience! The tour only gets better from there! Beginning the walking portion of the tour, Jackie transported us back in time with fascination and a flurry of little known facts as we walked amongst the history in motion! Prepared to answer any questions that arose, Jackie was well versed in the wealth of history at our very feet as we strolled around the oldest college in the United States! Now then… the donuts!!! Many standouts to satiate your sweet teeth on this tour, but there was one donut that stood on a plateau, high above the rest: THE EVERYTHING BAGEL DONUT from Blackbird Donuts was otherworldly!! I will leave your mind to imagine the refreshing fusion this donut dances to, but be prepared to be blown away!! Jackie and her team have expertly hand chosen the perfect mix of flavors and textures to foster any donut lover’s desires!! Take this tour with an open mind, empty belly, and be ready to be blown away!!

Fun, delicious and informative - Amazing experience! We were in Boston visiting colleges and were looking for a ‘non college’ tour of the Harvard area. My children are 16 and 11- so it’s hard to find something they both enjoy. This was perfect. The tour guide was so enthusiastic and fun! She gave us amazing historical information while we enjoyed delicious donuts from local shops. We really enjoyed ourselves!
