This tour was a very easy way to experience the battle road. I would highly recommend this format over an in person tour as the narrator is top notch and you can move at your own speed and take breaks if you want to.

The driving and audio tour worked really well. However, the minuteman National Park is doing a lot of renovations for the 2026 independence anniversary. We could not access about 3 of the sites and you could see many of the homes along the route being worked on.

Absolutely fantastic! We loved that we could drive most of this and stop/get out and see more as we wanted to. Don’t sleep on Orchard House - Louisa May Alcott’s home - that was one of our favorite stops!
