Boston Common
Established in 1634, Boston Common is America’s oldest public park. Puritan colonists purchased the land rights to the Common’s 44 acres from the first European settler of the area, Anglican minister William Blackstone.
3
Massachusetts State House
Designed by Charles Bulfinch, the ‘new’ and current State House has served as the seat of Massachusetts government since its opening in 1798. Holding the legislative and executive branches, it sits adjacent to the former site of the historic Hancock mansion.
4
Park Street Church
The church was founded in 1809, at the corner of Park and Tremont Streets, atop the site of Boston’s town grain storage building, or granary. Designed by Peter Banner, the 217 ft. steeple of Park Street Church was once the first landmark travelers saw when approaching Boston.
5
Granary Burying Ground
Established in 1660, some of America's most notable citizens and founding fathers rest here. Named for the 12,000-bushel grain storage building that was once next door, the historic burying ground has approximately 2,300 markers.
6
Statue of Benjamin Franklin
Boston Latin School, founded on April 23, 1635, is the oldest public school in America. It offered free education to boys - rich or poor - while girls attended private schools at home. Until the completion of the schoolhouse in 1645, classes were held in the home of the first headmaster, Philemon Pormont. A mosaic and a statue of former student Benjamin Franklin currently marks the location of the original schoolhouse.
7
Old Corner Bookstore
Constructed in 1718, the Old Corner Bookstore is downtown Boston’s oldest commercial building and was home to the 19th-century publishing giant Ticknor and Fields, producer of many venerable American titles including Thoreau’s Walden, Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, Longfellow's Midnight Ride of Paul Revere, and the Atlantic Monthly including Ward Howe's Battle Hymn of the Republic. Saved from demolition in 1960, the building’s leases help subsidize important historic preservation projects in Boston’s neighborhoods.
8
Old South Meeting House
Where the Boston Tea Party began! This hall rang with words from Puritan sermons, public meetings, and the tea tax debates.
9
Faneuil Hall Marketplace
Often referred to as "the home of free speech" and the "Cradle of Liberty," Faneuil Hall hosted America's first Town Meeting. The Hall's vital role in revolutionary politics had not been part of its original plans, but it became home to an intricate collection of events that shaped the nation's history. Visit the adjacent marketplace home to many shops and eateries.

The Boston Stone
Learn the tale of why a round rock is embedded in a wall of an 18th century building
11
The Paul Revere House
On the night of April 18, 1775, silversmith Paul Revere left his small wooden home in Boston’s North End and set out on a journey that would ultimately make him a legend. Today that home is still standing at 19 North Square and has become a national historic landmark. It is downtown Boston’s oldest building and one of the few remaining 17th-century dwellings in a large urban area in the United States.
12
Old North Church & Historic Site
The enduring fame of the Old North began April 18, 1775, when church sexton, Robert Newman climbed the steeple and held high two lanterns as a signal from Paul Revere that the British were marching to Lexington and Concord by sea across the Charles River and not by land. This fateful event ignited the American Revolution. Built in 1723, Christ Church in the City of Boston, known to all as the Old North Church, is Boston’s oldest surviving church building and most visited historical site.
13
Copp's Hill Burying Ground
Named after shoemaker William Copp, Copp’s Hill Burying Ground is the final resting place and burying ground of merchants, artisans, and craftspeople who lived in the North End.

Neal is fantastic! My husband and I were treated to a three hour immersion into Boston history, both a learning experience and high entertainment. I’m so happy we went with this personalized and interactive tour group. It was the highlight of our week.

Neal was funny and full of quirky information that kept you entertained and interested, learning a style from being a teacher, from a time long ago. If I ever recommend a tour guide of Boston, Neal’s the man. From where to get the best cannoli to a memorable photo, Neal will please your senses. Till next time Neal.

Uber pick up was late and we arrived 10 min late. Tour was gone. I had called 15 min before our arrival time and left a message with the contact number. When we arrived and could not find anyone, I found another guide number and left message, as well as a second message with Neil - the contact number. Finally called Viator and talked w a human who tried contacting Neil - also to no avail, so asked for refund - pending. So we bought another, lesser tour. Overall, yes we were late but I doubt we the first group of 5 to be late and the tour company needs a mechanism for this situation. Of course, it’s off season in Boston with hardly any tourists (July 16, 2022).
