Additional Information

Embark on a journey through the Liberty Trail in Boston, a place steeped in history that drastically shaped our world. As said by John Adams, ‘The revolution resided in the hearts and souls of the people, and it took shape during the span of 15 years from 1760 to 1775, long before the first blood was shed at Lexington.’ Our path will trace the narrative right up to the creation of the Declaration of Independence and the emergence of a fresh, new country. This captivating history is truly unique and fascinating. As part of our journey, there will be a 30-minute interval at the renowned Quincy Marketplace, where you can find restrooms, grab a quick bite, and browse through keepsakes. I suggest a quick meal – save your appetite for a hearty dinner. The North end is renowned for its array of Italian eateries. Beyond this remarkable historical narrative, we will explore numerous other historical spots including the country’s oldest continuously operated hotel, the location of America’s first public school, The Old State House, and The Old South Meeting House, the originating point of the infamous Boston Tea Party.
