Customer Reviews

Excellent history and storytelling! Concord Walking Tours gave my out of town friends and me a walking tour of Sleepy Hollow in Concord. Beth, the guide and tour company owner, gave us a tour that was both informative and peppered with humor. Her enthusiasm for Concord’s history kept us going up the steep parts of the graveyard, and took us to flatter areas when our huffing and puffing hinted we might need our own plot soon. She covered all the famed Concord luminaries plus brought to life little-known names on stones. The length was just right at the end of a day of walking. We shall return for further tours with Concord Walking Tours in the future.

Absolutely loved this experience. Very informative and will definitely be going back for more. I absolutely love learning about concord. It is such a cute town and definitely a place I want to live when I am older

Wow! I highly recommend a walking tour with Concord Walking Tours. The tour was easy to walk and our guide, Beth, very knowledgeable and very funny! There was a nice mix of history and legend, and the guide was able to refer us to sources where her information comes from. We felt we were really stepping back in time and viewing Concord. We took the Legends & Lore tour, and plan to come back in the spring and take another tour with them. Definitely glad we found this tour company!
