Boston, Freedom Trail iPod MP3 History Walking Tour

Boston – Freedom Trail Tour

Tour Description: On the Freedom Trail tour, most, but not all, places you will visit are associated with the history of colonial Boston and the American Revolution. This comprehensive tour contains none of the advertising or bias found on free downloads. It was here on these historic streets that the Sons of Liberty first rose up to challenge the most powerful nation on earth. Our narrator, speaking with a British accent that was common in colonial New England, explains the significance of each location. This tour goes to traditional sites and also to places not covered by traditional Freedom Trail guides, including a possible site of the Boston Tea Party. Other segments tell stories of the Pilgrim Founders and of more recent community leaders. The history walking tour begins at the corner of Park and Tremont Streets near the Park Street Station and ends approximately 3 miles away at North Station.
