Tours will begin in front of the Visitors Center, across the street from the Battle Green at 1875 Massachusetts Avenue in Lexington.

On the one hour tour, you will explore the many notable sites surrounding this National Historic Landmark. It is considered consecrated ground, both for the blood shed on it and for the Minutemen who are interred here. Some highlights include: The iconic Henry H. Kitson Minuteman Statue The Revolutionary War Monument, a granite obelisk erected in 1799, where the remains of seven militiamen killed in the battle are buried. Captain John Parker monument inscribed with: “Stand your ground. Don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.” The Old Belfry, which sounded the alarm on April 19, 1775, calling the militia to the common. The Old Burying Ground where Captain John Parker, ministers John Hancock and Jonas Clarke, and an unknown British soldier are buried.

We took two different tours out of here and were very pleased with the helpful service. If you are trying to get your bearings around Lexington and Concord, this is a great place to stop in.

The visitors center is located on Lexington Green, site of the shot heard round the world. It's worth a stop for history buffs to see the site. This is also the launch point of the Lexington trolley tour (highly recommend). There are a few displays and a nice gift shop. There's plenty of street parking. The staff was pleasant and helpful.

Tour guide was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and was great at sharing little details about the event. I felt like I was there that day! He made history come to life. Even my two usually sulky teenage sons enjoyed the tour. The only part I didn’t like is they were mowing the grass right next to us for part of the toile, which made it hard to hear at times. (I wonder if the tour guide could coordinate with the groundskeeper so they do not overlap like that.) But other than that (which was only for a small part of the tour), it was excellent! Visitors center was nice too and the town is so pretty and historic.
