Highlights
See Boston's history come back to life in a 5-part immersive tour along The Freedom Trail. Using augmented reality (AR) technology, we tell a chronological series of events from 1765 to 1775 as if they are taking place again at each historical site. Key historical figures and artifacts appear in the real world in front of you as if they've traveled from the past to you. This is a first-of-its-kind, unforgettable new way to relive history! The experiences are interactive, and use tablets and AR headsets provided by us. For three important historical events, you will wear an AR headset for greater immersiveness and interactivity with hand-tracking technology. Imagine operating a revolutionary war era field cannon with your own hands! With the Relive 1776 AR Tour, you can.

About Boston
Boston, the capital of Massachusetts, is a compact harbour city of colonial history, red-brick streets, universities and seafood on the New England coast.
Boston was founded in 1630 and played a central part in the American Revolution, and its Freedom Trail, a red line on the pavement, links sixteen sites across the old centre, from Boston Common to Charlestown. Beacon Hill has gas lamps, cobbled streets and brick row houses, while the North End, the old Italian quarter, has the Old North Church and the Paul Revere House.
