Description
Trace the dramatic events of 1775 through the eyes of Paul Revere on this walking tour through Boston’s historic streets. With an expert guide leading the way, you’ll uncover the people, places, and pivotal decisions that influenced the American Revolution.
Begin at Granary Burying Ground, where Revolutionary icons like Samuel Adams and Paul Revere are laid to rest. From there, continue to the Old South Meeting House—an essential hub for protest and political discourse in colonial Boston.
Your guide will bring history to life at the Old State House and Boston Massacre Site, where tensions between colonists and British soldiers erupted. Then it’s off to Faneuil Hall, a timeless public meeting space where freedom was fiercely debated.
Head into the North End, Boston’s oldest neighborhood and Revere’s former home. Walking the cobblestone streets, you’ll get a glimpse of daily life in an 18th-century city on the brink of rebellion.
Next comes one of the tour’s most exclusive moments: a visit inside the Old North Church, where the “one if by land, two if by sea” signal was lit. Your visit includes rare entry to the bell ringing chamber—a unique vantage point most people don't get to see.
Pause outside Paul Revere’s home as you come full circle on your journey through his midnight ride before making your way to Long Wharf. There, you’ll board a 1-hour narrated Boston Harbor cruise, where skyline views pair with stories of the city’s maritime past.
Perfect for history lovers, this tour reveals the humanity behind the history—tying iconic landmarks to the unforgettable midnight ride that helped spark a revolution.
