Boston CommonAt the start of the tour, your expert local guide will open the scene of this iconic trail with an intro to our country's history, the events leading up to the The Declaration of Independence, and the spark that lit the bonfire of the revolution! We will then describe in detail the significance of the trail and the historic figures that shaped the birth of our nation--supposed rebels and traitors that became patriots and heroes!

Massachusetts State HouseThis building is just over two centuries old, compared to the older "Old State House". Freemasons Paul Revere and Samuel Adams presided over the laying of the cornerstone.
-
Park Street ChurchKnown as Brimstone Corner, this was the location of the first public performance of a popular patriotic song.
-
Granary Burying GroundThis tiny plot of land is the final resting place of many historically important figures, among them Paul Revere.

- Sometimes referred to as "The Cradle of Liberty", this building hosted the first town meeting in the colonies. (pass by)
