Overview
Few cities can rival Boston's intertwined history with the formation of the United States. On this walking tour, your guide will bring the past to life as he takes you on the Freedom Trail alongside modern-day icons of the city, including the city's first skyscraper, Custom House Tower.
You'll pass by the site of the Boston Massacre, the Rose Kennedy Greenway. A short trek through Downtown Crossing will bring you to Old City Hall. This beautiful building, built in the French Revivalist style, was the seat of city government for years in Boston. It also happens to be the site of the birth of public education in America. Alongside plenty of learning, make sure to treat yourself at Quincy Market!
