I sort of want my money back on this one.... we almost didn't go in, but figured, "What the hey" and gave it a try. It was boring, small, and quick. 5-10 minutes tops. The historic buildings in Lexington that you can enter and learn about are much more interesting. more

This was only good because it was really cheap. Not much inside is really Paul Revere's and they don't allow any photos to be taken (probably because they sell them outside). It's VERY small and "tour guides" don't provide a tour. My feeling is that their primary job was to make sure no one was taking pictures. They are silent... more

It is definitely good to know how far you're going to be walking, as it is a considerable distance from Faneuil Hall, and it is a bit of a trek in the heat. I reccomend going early, as the rooms aren't very big so you'll want as few people in there as possible. It's good to walk around and look... more

I knew this would be simple, but it really wasn't worth even the few dollars admission cost. We were there about 15 minutes. You get to walk through four rooms of the house Paul Revere lived in during the night of his famous ride. Not much to see and very little reading beyond a description of the furniture. If you... more

Our group of four went to see Paul Revere’s House after lunch in the North End. It was the weekend after school vacation week (4/26/08), so there were a few groups including some Cub Scouts. The tour is very short, taking us about 15 minutes. There were guides providing information on the rooms and its contents as well as history... more

Well walking the famous Freedom Trail here in Boston, people get excited about Paul Revere's House being one of the final stops in the far off, cramped North End. the house sits amongest apartment buildings and Italian restaurants and looks out of place being a dark brown salt box. It is nice on the outside. You go in the court... more

This is a place that I really wanted to see on the Freedom trail. We just happened to be in Boston when it was 95 degrees. Following the Freedom Trail exactly to this point from Quincy Market, took alot out of us. Should have really looked at a map ahead of time & just take a direct walking route to... more

Seeing the House is a must for any first time visitor to Boston. The tour is very short (about 15 minutes) as there are really only 4 rooms to visit, and costs $3. This may seem expensive to some for such a short visit, but you have to bear in mind that the cost helps with the upkeep. I have... more

While visiting Boston my boyfriend and I walked the Freedom Trail which eventually takes you to Paul Revere's House. Since my boyfriend and I love history it was exciting to know that he once lived there. However, there wasn't much of a tour and the house is very small. Not very impressive at that. This is definately a one time... more
