This is a long but very interesting walk if you take all of it. (But you can pick it up anywhre with a good map) Being there makes you appreciate our wonderful country and all it has experienced.

Pick a beautiful day and wear comfortable shoes and enjoy the walk! Dislikes: only bad during lunch hour on a weekday (too many people taking lunch break) Also, once the big dig is done, should be perfect.

I wasn't sure where to start with this review, so I decided to start with the part of our Boston vacation that was our favorite, the Freedom Trail. My fiancee and I recently visited Boston, because his son was attending the Berklee College of Music. This was by far the best vacation we have ever had. We were both not only impressed with Boston ...

To walk in the footsteps of history makers was humbling and inspiring. It brings home the beginning of our country and the joys, victories and losses that were endured.

I would love to walk the trail with each of my eight grandchildren. I have been able to take three grandchildren so far. I believe it is priceless to experience in person what they read about in books.

This is a great way to learn about how our country gained it's independence. Along the way you'll see beautiful and historic Boston as well as get some great exercise. Don't forget to grab some great italian food and pastries while your in the North End or some excellent seafood at the water front.

I couldn't convince my husband to walk this because he thought I was just trying to make hime exercise so we took a trolley and what a waste of money. The maps that you get make everything on the freedom trail look so far away from each other when everything is actually very close and within walking distance. I believe the trail is about 3 miles or so. I would advise walking this even if you don't like to walk

I took a tour with the Freedom Trail Players and they were awesome! Our tour was about an hour and a half and we had so much fun. It was definitely the highlight of my vacation and I would recommend these tours to anyone. You can get on them at the Boston Common Visitor's Center. They are cheap and fun! A must see/Do!!!!!!!!

It's very easy to get to using public transport, and there are lots of cool buildings and good shopping in the area. The monuments themselves were very tasteful as well as powerful. Unfortunately, the restaurants in the area have decided to cash in on the popularity of the area and charge way too much!

Anyone visiting Boston should not miss the Freedom Trail. It is the heart of Boston's history--a definite must see.
