Hands down, the best tour I've ever been on. The tour guide is an incredible storyteller who has honed his craft to near perfection. During an adventurous tour that stretched across most of Harvard Square, he constantly gripped my attention with some of the most interesting and creepy stories I've ever heard but he also kept the experience light and fun by being very personable and peppering in some witty jokes. Would give this tour a 6/5 if I could!

We went on one of the Harvard ghost tours and absolutely loved it. Our guide alternated between funny and grave (chuckle, chuckle) and did a great job. I'm looking forward to doing one of their other tours of Cambridge. Highly recommended, great fun for the money!

Thrilled with the fantastic historical tour of Harvard we received from this outfit. Our guide was tremendously well versed not only in the history of the campus itself but how it related to US history in general. Polished in delivery and filled with humor, if you're looking for a passionate and entertaining historian who enjoys his work look up Daniel. You won't be disappointed.

Can t say enough positive things about Daniel and the tour he gave us if Harvard square and surrounding areas. He actually gave us the tour on Thanksgiving, which meant a lot to us as we are from Florida and had nothing else planned for that day- his willingness to do that speaks to the down to earth person he is. Without going into detail of the whole tour- I ll say simply, I learned more history from him on this area/topic than I did in all of high school. I have no idea can retain so much knowledge and information that they can, with ENTHUSIASM, give this tour and make it AWESOME for a 14 year old. I can go on and on but again I ll say simply: we are going back to Boston 100% and we will be getting in touch with Daniel again 100%.

This is a must-do if you visit Harvard University. Ask for Daniel! He was engaging, entertaining and has deep knowledge of anything and everything Harvard and history. We didn't want our tour to end!

Olivia was terrific! She was dressed the part, and her tour was educational and entertaining. She was very informative and the time flew by - even though it was 90 degrees outside (she always managed to find shade for us). I would ask for her again!

Probably the most well presented tour I have had the pleasure to be on through the Revolutionary beginnings at Lexington and Concord. Conducted with energy and humor by Daniel. If you get a chance, its a must see.

Daniel made it VERY easy to arrange a special ghost tour outside the 'high season.' He was professional, friendly, and on top of the variables. We showed up at the Coop and were greeted by Caitlin in awesome Victorian woolens for our cold and rainy day. We had a group of 30 and she has a perfect voice to carry. She was SO knowledgeable, funny, and very engaging. We had something like 8 stops in our loop through Cambridge and the Harvard Yard and she was able to offer rich detail of each location. An excellent experience that I highly recommend!
