If you are looking for a tour that covers the entire Freedom Trail, this is it! This is the most comprehensive tour of the Freedom Trail you will find and includes all stops, including actually visiting Bunker Hill and the USS Constitution.

The Freedom Trail connects sixteen locations in historic Boston. Each is interesting in its own right, but together, they tell the story of the conflicts that lead to the Colonist’s decision to risk everything they held dear and challenge the greatest military power in the world for the right to form a new nation.

Your tour will include a stop at each of the sixteen sites to learn its significance in the events that lead to the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party, the battles of Lexington and Concord, the Battle of Bunker Hill and the subsequent departure of British forces from Boston Harbor.

Our tour narration weaves the events of the Revolution together into a cohesive story of the people and events that took place in Boston from the time of the first settlers in 1630 until war raged in Massachusetts and beyond.

The focus is on the people and key events of the Revolution. What really happened, who made it happen, and the outcomes of events like the Tea Party, Massacre, and Battle of Bunker Hill.

• Notes: This tour does not include entrances and admission fees to interiors of buildings such as Old South Meeting House, the Old State House or the home of Paul Revere. We’re happy to give advice on which buildings to visit after your tour ends.
