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.

    Darcy was a fabulous tour guide! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic while also being mindful of the needs of the group. She has a knack for storytelling and I’ve definitely learned a lot about Boston’s history and the journey to independence - especially as I was starting with zero knowledge! Incredibly professional service and 5 stars all round!

    It was hard to follow and not quite 2.5 miles. If you are not a history buff there are a lot of names to get straight, not that I was unfamiliar with the names. Just a lot to digest.

  • Awesome tour!!
