This is a walking tour of medium length, please bring comfortable shoes, seasonally appropriate clothes, and a bottle of water. This tour will view the exteriors of all 16 official Freedom Trail sites, but does not include or have built-in time for interior site visits. We highly encourage visiting the interior of sites, just plan those visits for after the tour! Each site may require a separate entrance fee.

Using the restroom before the tour is encouraged. Public restrooms are not abundant and don't always smell great. But we can show you to one if needed.

Meeting Location: Tours meet just inside the Boston Common, behind the Robert Gould Shaw Memorial, located at the corner of Park and Beacon Streets.

—We strongly recommend taking public transportation as parking is neither cheap, easy, nor convenient downtown.
