About this activity

Immerse yourself in this Revolutionary War full-day driving tour which will take you on a journey to explore the significant sites of the American Revolution. You will explore the historic towns of Cambridge, Lexington, and Concord, where the American Revolution began.

This tour will bring to life the places you learned about in your history classes, and give you the chance to remember the famed moments, while also challenging the nostalgic, hackneyed stories that don’t quite capture the full reality of the revolutionary period.

Whether you’re a history aficionado or someone who is curious about the war but also curious to explore the towns aside from their history, your driver guide will be perfectly able to tailor the itinerary for you, giving you plenty of time to ask questions or to walk through the towns and browse as well.
