Thinking about gifting the Lexington & Concord tour!

I'm considering this tour for my history-loving boyfriend's birthday. The whole idea of exploring the battlegrounds and then visiting the homes of authors like Alcott sounds amazing! How long did it take overall? And did your guide make it fun? I want to make sure it's engaging.

Just came back from the Lexington & Concord tour!

I went on this tour last weekend and wow, it was incredible! The guide knew so many stories and really brought history to life. The Buckman Tavern was a highlight for me. Plus, exploring Concord's literary spots was just the cherry on top! Definitely worth every penny.
