This private walking tour offers a deep dive into the city’s rich history, starting at Boston Common, America’s oldest public park, dating back to 1634. Whether carpeted in green or dusted with snow, it provides a picturesque beginning to your journey. Across the street, the Massachusetts State House marks the start of Beacon Hill, a neighborhood known for its cobblestone streets and Federal-style row houses.

Follow the iconic Freedom Trail, a 2.5-mile red-brick path connecting sixteen of Boston’s most storied landmarks.

Now a National Historic Landmark, it offers a glimpse into daily colonial life during the American Revolution. Your tour concludes in the North End, Boston’s Little Italy, where your guide shares the story of the USS Constitution, the celebrated warship known for her victories in the War of 1812.

In just a few hours, you’ll explore Boston’s most important Revolutionary landmarks, enjoy a local treat, and gain insight into the founding events of the nation—all in the company of a knowledgeable private guide.
