We really had a terrific day walking the Freedom Trail - the colors bricks (and painted roads) were easy to follow. Be SURE to stop at the Visitor's Center first and get the map (and any info you need from the friendly staff!) more

We decided not to take the guided tour and save some money. Instead we bought the map from the Visitor Center and did it ourselves. It was great but bring good walking shoes! more

The section between Boston Common and the North End Church is especially good. Crossing the river is not the most pleasant experience (next to a busy dual carriageway) and I didn't find... more

The Trail starts at Boston common. There are a number of guides that will take you on the trial and tell you tails along the way. But we just chose to do the walk on our own. Just grab a map from the infomation stand and you are away. you just follow the little markers on the ground. Some of... more

I absolutely adored walking the Freedom Trail! I attend college in Boston, but never knew too much about the city, so I decided to go on it.
