Boston Freedom Trail History and Brewery Tour

Boston's role in launching the American Revolution is linked by the brick-lined Freedom Trail. This world-famous path is best experienced on foot with an expert historian. A new partnership between two local businesses, this 2.5-hour "Tour & Taste" experience combines Boston's incredible history with all-inclusive lunch at a local brewery!
Your tour travels through Downtown Boston, visiting 11 of 16 official Freedom Trail landmarks. Along the way, your expert guide delves deeply into 1768 to 1775, tumultuous years leading into the American Revolution. Walk in the footsteps of Colonial Bostonians, all of whom grappled with the difficult—yet essential—question of loyalty or rebellion to crown and country.

With a captivating storytelling approach, Hub Town Tours provides the perfect introduction to Boston's status as America's "Cradle of Liberty." The tour concludes inside Democracy Brewing, where guests enjoy local craft beers and lunch featuring lobster rolls, clam chowder, and more.
