Excellent Experience
Mike was an excellent driver & guide, went above and beyond to make sure we all got on and off the van safely, walked us in to the fair, showed us where to meet him, gave us his phone number, and was waiting promptly when it was time to pick us up. Too bad he couldn't be cloned, because companies need more wonderful staff members like him. The Topsfield Fair trip was well worth the $65 cost including train fare, $20 fair admission, and a $12 food voucher.

Castle Hill Crane Estate
The trip to Castle Hill Cranes Estate was worthwhile. Keolis provided excellent communication prior and during the trip - when the pick up was going to be a bit late, there was an immediate text. Keolis made it a seamless trip!

Afternoon at deCordova Sculpture Garden
I did the deCordova Sculpture Garden tour with Mike on 9/20/26. Beautiful sculpture garden and large grounds for a fall walk! Mike was courteous, helpful, and professional. Would recommend!

Hammond Castle Day Trip
Very nice day out at beautiful Hammond Castle! Train was on time. Pick up van driver met us promptly at the train station in Gloucester and also for the return trip. We planned another trip already!

Plymouth Aug 2026
The trip to Plymouth with Keolis was really fun. You ride the Kingston line and get picked up in a comfortable clearly marked van at the station and it takes you to the museums. My driver Mike was super friendly and gave good recommendations for things to see. The price really isn't too bad especially for a solo trip. I recommend buying the weekend pass on your own through the mbta as the conductors who checked my ticket provided through the booking didn't seem to know what it was and it didn't scan right. Overall it was a very good experience.

Clam Box great add-in. Best for those ready to walk & enjoy ocean views.

Beautiful sunset kayak tour
Emily was a wonderful tour guide and the Crane Estate was beautiful. We loved getting the whole backstory of the refuge and the three houses on the islands, and learning about the sea creatures that inhabit the area. Watching the sunset from our kayaks was especially magical!

Wishing the guide/driver was more professional and knowledgeable about the area
The tour guide on the bus didn't know a number of things about the area and wasn't dressed very professionally. The first part of the tour ran long and we had limited time to explore during the second part of the tour because of it. It felt expensive for what it was and I think a person could easily have gone and done these things without using this company.

Great Nature Day Trip Getaway from Boston
Living in the city without car can make it difficult to get out to nature adventures, but the Keolis kayak daytrip package makes it super easy! The pick up from the Ipswich commuter rail station by Mike and drop off at Crane Beach and subsequent pick up was seamless, and the kayak group of 7 came with two experienced kayak guides. I got to spend a few peaceful hours on the water, and got to see the marshes, the beaches and the dunes. Afterwards, Mike took me to the Clam Box where we got some great fried seafood classics - a rewarding treat after a day of kayaking! A special thank you to Mike, who was very personable and easy to talk with, and made the excursion an extra enjoyable one!
