Just did the Rebels and Red Coats tour—so much fun!

We took our kids on the Rebels and Red Coats tour last weekend, and it was amazing! The guide was hilarious and kept the kids engaged the whole time. We walked just under half a mile along the Freedom Trail, and even got to peek into a cemetery. Perfect length for our 5 and 8-year-olds. Definitely worth doing if you’re in Boston!

Considering Rebels and Red Coats for my niece’s birthday!

I’m thinking of gifting the Rebels and Red Coats tour for my niece’s 7th birthday. She loves history and is always asking questions about the Revolution. Just wondering if it’s a good option for her age or if she’d get bored. Anyone done it recently?
