In evidenza

Boston's principal role in launching the American Revolution is linked by the brick-lined Freedom Trail. This world-famous pedestrian path is best experienced on foot, in a small group, with a knowledgeable local guide! Your 2.5-hour tour travels from Boston Common to Copp's Hill Terrace in the North End, providing guests a chance to see ALL SIXTEEN official landmarks on the Freedom Trail. Our small-group walking tour delves deeply into the years 1760 to 1775, the tumultuous period leading up to the American Revolution. We walk in the footsteps of Colonial Bostonians, all of whom grappled with the difficult—yet essential—question of loyalty or rebellion to crown and country. With a captivating storytelling approach, Hub Town Tours provides the perfect introduction to Boston's status as America's "Cradle of Liberty." As we travel past historic landmarks from Revolutionary Boston, your guide shares the gripping story of a small colonial town careening toward war with a global empire.

  • 5Our guide Clio was...

    Our guide Clio was fantastic!! She provided lots of additional factual stories and insight into the historical sites and characters on the walking tour. She obviously loves history and sharing her knowledge. I highly recommend this tour. The one bit of constructive feedback I would give is that the tour ends about 1.5 miles away from where it started, which was not emphasized. A shuttle bus to return patrons to the starting point or at least instructions/suggestions on how to return would have been much appreciated.

    Amazing in-depth tour on pre-Revolutionary events leading up to the tea party. The guide highlighted all the key players and sites during an expansive 2.5 hour excursion on foot.

  • 5Freedom trail with a guide is the best way to go

    Our tour guide John from local operator Hub Town tours was very knowledgeable, professional and entertaining. The tour was well paced, kept to the schedule without feeling rushed. You had time to take pictures and ask questions. Definitely worth the paying for a guide.

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.
