Le rôle principal de Boston dans le lancement de la Révolution américaine est lié par le Freedom Trail bordé de briques. Ce chemin piétonnier mondialement connu se vit à pied, en petit groupe, avec un guide local compétent ! Votre visite de 2,5 heures se rend de Boston Common à Copp's Hill Terrace dans le North End, offrant aux clients une chance de voir TOUS LES SEIZE points de repère officiels sur le Freedom Trail. Notre visite à pied en petit groupe plonge profondément dans les années 1760 à 1775, la période tumultueuse menant à la Révolution américaine. Nous marchons sur les traces des Bostoniens coloniaux, tous aux prises avec la difficile, mais essentielle, question de la loyauté ou de la rébellion à la couronne et à la patrie. Avec une approche captivante de la narration, Hub Town Tours offre une introduction parfaite au statut de Boston en tant que « berceau de la liberté » de l'Amérique. Alors que nous passons devant des monuments historiques de Boston révolutionnaire, votre guide partage l'histoire captivante d'une petite ville coloniale qui se soucie de la guerre avec un empire mondial.
Rencontrez votre guide à l'intérieur de Boston Common au Boston Foundation Monument à la limite nord du parc, en face du 50 Beacon Street (02108). Le mémorial en granit présente un relief en bronze représentant deux hommes se serrant la main, lorsque les puritains sont arrivés en 1630 dans ce qui est aujourd'hui Boston.

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.

We definitely recommend good shoes, water, and rest before your journey.
