Boston Day Trip The Freedom Trail

Painting by James Brown Marston


Think you have to go to Philadelphia to immerse yourself in American history? Think again! Just a five minute walk from our rental yacht, the Sea Pearl, is the beginning of Boston's Freedom Trail. The trail makes early American Revolutionary history accessible to visitors with 16 historic sites within a 2.5 mile journey. You can walk or use public transportation as it even has it's own smart phone app! Prefer more in depth education and guidance? You can organize a guided tour open to the public that last around 90 minutes. 

See America's oldest public park at Boston Common, stand where the Revolutionary War began at Bunker Hill, and reflect on missions of human rights and social justice at Park Street Church. These are just a few of the stops along the way and as you wind through the city streets, Boston's rich history will come alive before your eyes.
