Boston's vigtigste rolle i lanceringen af den amerikanske revolution er forbundet med den murstenede Freedom Trail. Denne verdensberømte fodgænger sti er bedst oplevet til fods, i en lille gruppe, med en kunnig lokal guide! Din 2,5-timers tur rejser fra Boston Common til Copp's Hill Terrace i North End, hvilket giver gæsterne mulighed for at se ALLE SIXTEEN officielle vartegn på Freedom Trail. Vores lille gruppe vandretur dykker dybt ind i årene 1760 til 1775, den tumultuøse periode før den amerikanske revolution. Vi følger i kolonisternes fodspor, som alle har kæmpet med det vanskelige – men stadig vigtige – spørgsmål om loyalitet eller oprør mod kronen og landet. Med en fængslende storytelling tilgang, Hub Town Tours giver den perfekte introduktion til Boston status som Amerikas "Cradle of Freedom." Mens vi rejser forbi historiske landemærker fra revolutionær Boston, deler din guide den gribende historie om en lille kolonial by, der bekymrer sig om krig med et globalt imperium.
Mød din guide inde i Boston Common på Boston Foundation Monument på den nordlige grænse af parken, overfor 50 Beacon Street (02108). Den granit mindesmærke har en bronze relief, der skildrer to mænd skubbe hænder, da puritanerne ankom i 1630 til det, der nu er Boston.

Alex was a wonderful tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and easy to hear and understand during what is sometimes a busy environment. She made this tour the best one we had taken on our trip. Would recommend a tour with her.
My tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was engaging and educational. I had a great time.
Lots of stories. Passionate guide. Walk was doable. Stories told at various stops. Stops didn’t provide an opportunity to sit. I needed a chair due to some back pain/issue. 2.5 hours was about 3+ hours. I would do the tour again.
Lot of walking but easy pace (I am 84 but in good health). We had a really good guide, Zoe. I will recommend to others
Very informative, learned a lot, the tour guide Adrian was knowledgeable and make this learning experience fun.
Excellent tour by Alex . Very informative and told in a very engaging way. Highly recommend . Great value
Our guide had a lot to say! Be prepared to cover a LOT of ground! We walked and talked for about three hours. Be ready to depart exactly on time and bring a bottle of water. Lots of walking and standing.
Thanks for the great review, Meredith! Our tours tend to run two and a half hours long and cover the first two miles of the Freedom Trail. We definitely recommend good shoes, water, and rest before your journey. Our guides will always be mindful of their group's needs and will include places for their guests to sit down, as well as a bathroom and water break at the midpoint of the tour. We're so glad you enjoyed your time with us and hope to see you again here at Hub Town!
