I optimistically chose a private tour of the last 9 miles and then had some trepidation about having bitten off more than I could chew, which I confessed to RunBoston guides. I was immediately reassured that the tour would be at my pace, whatever that might be, and this was followed up by further assurance from my guide, Wayne. I... More

I booked this tour last minute and was able to be accommodated the next day. Karen planned a great 5km run and was very knowledgeable. The weather threatened to rain (and I am told they will run in all weather) but it turned out beautiful. I got to stretch my legs and run while learning a bit about Boston after... More

We are so happy that our runner had a good time with Karen. We reached out, post tour, and ensured her that pictures are included with our tours (it isn't something people should have to ask for- we should offer). This was our mistake, and we did our best to make it up to our runner. More

I have but 2 regrets with this experience: I didn't get a picture with my guide & I don't have time to do this again on this trip. I chose the private tour since my conference schedule did not allow me to go with their group run. I think $50 was more than fair for several reasons. First, this was... More

My tour with Ronak was a highlight of Boston for me. He was very knowledgable, and I re-traced the route later on in the week with my husband and was surprised by how much I knew! Obviously Ronak has a way of showing and explaining that I was able to remember so many details. The tour really familiarized me well... More

I did this tour last August when I visted Boston for the first time. I would highly recommend this to travelers who want to see the city, but feel comfortable getting around town. For a first time visitor, Boston can be really confusing and congested with cars. It is nice having someone showing you the ropes around town. The day... More

I was excited to find RunBoston so that I could run the last 9.5 miles of the marathon. Wayne Levy was my guide and was fantastic. What a thrill to run the streets of Boston with him and learn the route. He gave me great tips, pointed out the landmarks and the mile markers. We had a great conversation and... More

We did the last 9.5 miles of the Boston Marathon route. Abby was a great guide. She effectively balanced a good running pace with information about the area and stories about the Boston Marathon. I learned alot, while getting in a good run. I would definitely recommend this and look forward to another run when I'm back in town again.... More

My wife and I are both runners and were delighted to have come across RunBoston. We were met at our hotel and went from there. It was a great way to see the city and they worked with us to develop a great route for what we wanted to see. Not only did we see the city we learned a... More
