What a bargain! We purchased a Groupon for this accompanied walking tour of the Freedom Trail. Our guide was dressed in period costume and took on the persona of a character from the revolutionary period. Andrew was a well informed historian and gave us a the back story of what transpired during the fight for independence. What we learned was fascinated and not what you read in history books. We didn't follow the red line of the Freedom Trail (which has been moved numerous times), but instead went to the areas that were rich with history and spent a lot of time in the granary burying ground. Here we heard wonderful stories and biographies of the famous players such as John Hancock, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams and many others. The tour lasted for 2 hours. Rather than try to do the trail on your own, get a ticket, make a reservation and enjoy learning a lot about the birth of our nation.

The Freedom Trail was one of the most inspirational walks I have ever taken. The guide books provided interesting facts and the red line trail lead from one amazing site to another. A must for every American!
