Kids can watch history come alive!

I took my elementary school-aged child to Boston to teach her about the Revolutionary War and it's origins in Boston. This tour was the best way to make history come alive! She got to shoot a cannon, walk around the market and wave to merchants, and watch Paul Revere and Sam Adams talk in the Boston Commons. Absolutely amazing and the future of education!!

Most unique tour in Boston hands down!

This was really a unique experience. It was almost like living a video game of the past in the physical space of contemporary Boston. Dylan and his team do a great job weaving historical narrative, contemporary information and a one of a kind AR experience together into one of the most interesting tours I’ve ever taken. Can’t recommend this enough!

An unforgettable, interactive Boston experience – the future of touring!

We did the See Reality Tour in Boston today and honestly, it was the best tour of our entire month-long trip across Canada and the US. What made it stand out? It was different, innovative, and so much fun. Stuart and I got to act out scenes from history—fighting British soldiers as American patriots, shopping in a colonial marketplace, and firing cannons at ships in Boston Bay! We were laughing, learning, and completely engaged the whole time.

We did the Relive 1776 tour in the middle of Faneuil Market and it was one of the coolest experiences I've ever had on a city tour. Its not virtual reality, its augmented reality. You can always see your surroundings and your guide walks you through everything. A very cool way to learn about the history of the city, because you actually get to live it out in a way. Tommy and Ryan were out tour guides, and they were awesome. The kids loved it too. The best tour of the city we did while in Boston. I would highly recommend this. If you do one tour in Boston, make this the one.
