Celebrate Revolutionary Boston on a walking tour along the Freedom Trail, a 2.5-mile (4km) route that links 16 historical sites and covers two and a half centuries of American history. A knowledgeable guide will escort you on this 3.5 hour tour. The Freedom Trail begins at Boston Common. It travels past the Massachusetts State House, King's Chapel, and continues to the Old South Meeting House where a memorable gathering sparked the Boston Tea Party in 1773. View the Old North Church and grounds from the outside, see the statue of Paul Revere and walk by the site of the Boston Massacre. See the balcony from which the Declaration of Independence was read. Time permitting, your tour ends at Faneuil Hall and the adjacent Quincy Market. This indoor pavilion has over 100 shops, a plethora of eating establishments, and delightful street performers. You may remain here for independent sightseeing and return to the ship on your own and at your own expense, or return to the ship with the group.
