Laurie Pelletier was an excellent tour guide. She knew the accurate history of what actually happened and distinguished it from legend and even explained how the true history was determined to be accurate.
I have toured alone on many sites and the difference is not even close. Having someone to tell all the details of the pre-battle influences, spies, info the colonists had, the strategies they used, and then the actual battle itself and all the people involved by name, and even post battle - talking about how the colonists militia and minutemen attacked the Brits on their way back to Boston relentlessly.
You get none of that by wandering around reading a few plaques. It was great also to be able to ask questions (unlike a recorded audio tour) and clarify issues or get questions answered.
The price was very reasonable so we could afford it. Laurie did great and this was our favorite part of our trip to Boston.
