Highlights of Boston you will see on your walking tour include the Massachusetts State House, Park Street Church, and the Granary Burying Ground, the final resting place of many famous Americans including John Hancock, Samuel Adams and Paul Revere.
Don’t miss America’s first public school and the country’s oldest continuously operating hotel. In the heart of Old Boston is the Old South Meeting House where angry colonists met on the eve of the Boston Tea Party.
Travel back in time to Revolutionary Boston with a walk along the Freedom Trail. Your experienced guide will reveal the sites and scenes of critical events that paved the way for American Independence. Near the circle of stones in front of the Old State House, you will hear the story of the Boston Massacre -- the first bloodshed of the Revolution. Passing Faneuil Hall, continue to the North End, home of Paul Revere and Boston’s oldest surviving residential neighborhood.
Visit the Old North Church where Paul Revere ordered lanterns hung in the steeple to signal that the British Redcoats were on the move -- "one if by land; two if by sea."
Your excursion ends at Faneuil Hall/Quincy Market where you can opt to remain for independent sightseeing and make your own way back to the ship.
Please note: Wear comfortable walking shoes. The walk covers a distance of approximately two miles. Not advisable for guests using a wheelchair or for those with mobility limitations.
