Follow the story of the start of the American Revolution, hour by hour! Start in the North End at the Paul Revere Mall and view the steeple of the Old North Church where the lanterns where hung that fateful night in April 1775. Explore the Old North Church and learn about the members that took part in the rebellion. Head to Charlestown to see where Paul Revere picked up his horse that evening, then head to Lexington to see where the Minutemen and British first encountered. Stop by Buckman Tavern, where the militia waited for the British troops to arrive. Continue to see where Paul Revere was captured that evening, then to the Old North Bridge, where the first order to fire arms was given. Stop by a few locations of significance in Concord, then head back to Cambridge to see where George Washington first took official command of the Army. End the tour in Charlestown, where the British retreated to that first day, and see Bunker Hill, location of the first full battle of the war.

Q&A

Q: Are there age limits for this tour? Can kids join?

A: Yes, kids can definitely join! It’s a family-friendly tour and a great way to introduce children to American history. Just keep in mind that younger kids might get tired, so consider how long they can handle the walking and listening. It’s best for ages 8 and up, I’d say!

Q: What should I wear for this tour? Is it a lot of walking?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes! There’s a good amount of walking involved, especially around Lexington and Concord. Dress in layers too since it can get chilly in the morning but warm up by midday. You’ll want to be ready for anything!

Q: What if the weather is bad on the day of the tour? Can we reschedule?

A: If the weather is really bad, they usually allow you to reschedule. Just make sure to contact them ahead of time. They’re pretty flexible with that! But a little drizzle won’t cancel the tour, so check the forecast and dress accordingly.

Thinking of gifting the Revolutionary Tour - worth it?

I’m looking at the Small Group Revolutionary Tour of Lexington, Concord, and Boston for my dad’s birthday. He’s super into history, and this seems perfect! Has anyone done it recently? What was your experience like? I hear there’s bottled water included, but is there a lunch break? Thanks!

Just booked the Revolutionary Tour!

I finally pulled the trigger and booked the Small Group Revolutionary Tour! I've been wanting to do this for ages. I’m so excited to see the Old North Church and the Old North Bridge. Should I be worried about parking? I’m coming from out of town.
