Overview

This is an action packed private day tour of the sites, history and events of the Revolutionary War era in Boston, Cambridge Lexington & Concord.

We drive the Freedom Trail with stories of the city's 400 year history, the events, people and sites which led up to the war.

In the oldest neighborhoods of the city, we'll give context to historic events like the Boston Tea Party, Boston Massacre and Battle of Bunker Hill.

We'll take a quick walking tour of Harvard, explain the role it played in the start of the war and where George Washington himself spent time.

A 10 mile drive gets us to Lexington Green where we take in the significance of the site and the story of what happened that night in April 1775.

Next the picturesque town of Concord, to the Old North Bridge and how the second battle of the war took the British by surprise.

Pick up and drop off in Downtown Boston, a stop for lunch along the way (not included in price of tour) and as light or heavy on history as you'd like.
