The Freedom Trail was created in the 1950's to guide visitors on foot along the historic sites in the city. The trail is indicated by a red line (red brick or red paint) on the sidewalk, and while the total Freedom Trail is 2. 2 miles (4 km) long, we will only be walking the most concentrated portion of it from the Boston Common to the Old North Church, which is approximately 1. 3 mile (roughly 2 km). The Charlestown Freedom Trail sites are roughly a 20 minute walk from our finishing point if you would like to continue on your own. While many of the sites have a direct connection to the events leading to the American Revolutionary War, other sites nonetheless explore the theme of Freedom: such as the Underground Railroad, the Abolitionist Movement and the War of 1812. Along the way, we'll make one or two small detours off the trail to show you some "other" iconic locations that testify to the dynamism of the city!
Tour will begin at the Boston Common Visitor Information Center, 139 Tremont Street, 02108, which is the start of the Freedom Trail. Following the trail will take us into old graveyards and past iconic 18th century buildings such as The Old South Meeting House (the Boston Tea Party). Onto the Old State House and the Boston Massacre site and Faneuil Hall also known as the "Cradle of Liberty". We will be going into Faneuil to see the "Great Hall" if it is open since the building is owned by the city of Boston and still functions as a meeting hall, 250 years later! Continue into the North End of Boston, passing over "The Big Dig", past the Paul Revere House and the Rose Kennedy birthplace. Finish in front of the iconic Paul Revere statue at the Old North Church on Hanover Street. Hanover is a bustling street with Italian restaurants, coffee shops and pastry shops. "Bellissimo!" * This itinerary can be customized upon request. Feel free to message me.
