Boston: Freedom Trail History Visite à pied en petit groupe
Description
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.

Eric, that is "mission accomplished" for your guide, and we appreciate the five stars! We love to share Boston's Freedom Trail history and how the War for Independence began right here. Thank you for your review, and we're glad you enjoyed!
It was a great experience and the Kyria was extremely knowledgeable! The time flew and on a hot day she kept us in the shade. Well worth the money,

An excellent tour with an exceptional guide! From beginning to end the tour was interesting and informative! Maura was engaging and very well versed in the history of Boston and the Freedom trail. Group size was small and everyone from the youngest to the oldest thoroughly enjoyed it!
What a wonderful five-star review for Maura's tour-- thank you very much! She is an excellent historian and experienced guide, and her lively storytelling style is so engaging. As a local, she brings that special enthusiasm to the Freedom Trail. We are so pleased you and everyone enjoyed the tour!
The 2.5-hour tour was fantastic-informative, engaging, and really enjoyable. Matt was an excellent guide! He did a fantastic job bringing Boston’s history to life. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to explore the city!
Sammy, thank you very much for five stars for Matt, and for summing up everything Hub Town Tours works to be: "informative, engaging, and really enjoyable"! Matt is a talented history teacher and an experienced guide who tells wonderful stories along the Freedom Trail. We appreciate your recommendation!
Alejandro was a fabulous tour guide…he’s clearly well educated and knowledgeable……..even better humorously engaging. We saw all aspects of the Freedom Trail and learned many new facts and gained insights to previously undiscovered information. It was a great experience and one of the highlights of our Boston getaway weekend.
Theresa, thank you very much for five stars and all these kind words for Alejandro's tour. He is quite an accomplished historian and loves to share his knowledge of the Freedom Trail. He's also warm and funny company along the way. We love knowing it was a highlight of your trip!
This tour came highly recommended by other Viator reviewers, and it absolutely lived up to the praise. Sven was an outstanding tour guide who provided detailed and engaging historical context at each location stop. It had been many years since my American History classes, and Sven not only refreshed my memory on important events leading up to the American Revolution, but also shared many fascinating details that I had never learned before. We also brought our 9-year-old son, who thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Sven was incredibly patient and engaging, answering his questions along the way and helping bring history to life. I highly recommend taking this tour during your first day or two in Boston. It provides an excellent overview of the events that shaped the Revolution and helps you understand the significance of the Freedom Trail sites. After the tour, you can return to explore the locations in greater depth, such as the USS Constitution, the Bunker Hill Monument, Paul Revere's House, and many others. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip and provided a great foundation for the rest of our time in Boston.
Wow, Kasey, thank you so much for sharing your experience on Sven's tour, and for the five stars! We are delighted you enjoyed the Freedom Trail and its history so much under Sven's guidance and with his great storytelling. We work to make our tours engaging for every guest, but our 2.5-hour deep dives into history may not be right for every younger visitor, depending on their interests. We agree the Freedom Trail offers a wonderful overview of sites and neighborhoods to explore later, and we love introducing our city to new guests! We appreciate the review and are so happy you enjoyed the tour.
