WHY BACK BAY?

This tour walks you along the famous Newbury Street, a popular high-end shopping district, whose early history offers a fascinating insight into the present culinary and cultural atmosphere that we will be walking through on this tour.

The booking fee that you have to pay is up to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.

Foreign Transaction Fees

A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us in your bank statement and we will refund this fee as a gesture of good will.
