The Old Manse

Really enjoyed the tour. It was great to hear the history of this home. There were 2 things that kept me from giving it a 5 star rating, the first was that tours only started at the top of every hour so we had to wait around for it to start (thankfully there was a lot of other things to explore). The other negative was that it would have been great to see the entire house but we didn't get to go in the attic or another one of the bedrooms. I would not allow these negatives to deter me from recommending the tour though. Definitely a great way to spend an afternoon.

Had an amazing tour with Rich. He brought history to life and made everything seem very personal and super interesting. I cannot recommend this tour enough. The house was exceptional, with all the original antiques, but the stories of the inhabitants really breathe life into the surroundings. One of the best tours I have taken ever. And I have taken a lot.

The tour was excellent, a well told measure of words to give the sense of time. It's clearly a history to be thankful for, and an offering for ongoing hope. Demand independence, and achieve equality. We have wonderful opportunities.

Great stop on a little literary tour of Massachusetts. The tour guide was very informative, and I enjoyed seeing little hints of the people who lived there. (The etchings in the glass are so slight you could miss them.) Worth a stop.
