Although Chinese was selected, there were not enough Chinese-speaking participants, so a Chinese-speaking guide was not assigned, and the entire tour was conducted in English. The English-speaking guide, Sharon, provided very thorough explanations, to the point where it was a bit funny that she wanted us to listen to her entire explanation before taking pictures. The itinerary was acceptable, except the lunch took a little too long.

It was a truly satisfying and delicious trip, with tasty local bakeries, pizza shops, coffee shops, and sandwiches. In particular, our guide Ilan gave us friendly explanations and answered all our questions with great care, especially for us as Korean visitors. Highly recommended for first-time travelers to Boston. Thank you Ilan!

Although the hotel room is not very big, the bedding and facilities are very clean. The front desk clerk is very good. He answered my questions and solved my requests very carefully and politely. The hotel is in a very good location. Whenever I called a taxi, it arrived within 10 minutes. Overall, I was very satisfied!
