Boston, Lexington & Concord Revolutionary War Car Tour
See more
Discover the history of the American Revolution on this private Boston, Lexington and Concord Revolutionary War Car Tour. It’s perfect for history buffs but also offers plenty of charm for those just looking to enjoy the scenic routes and local sights.
We’ll take you along the same route Paul Revere rode, stopping at key sites like Bunker Hill, Harvard Yard, and the first battlefields in Lexington and Concord. Along the way, you’ll hear detailed stories about the events of April 1775—some well-known, others lesser-known but equally fascinating.
If battles aren’t your main interest, you can opt to visit Louisa May Alcott’s home or simply relax on Concord’s pretty main street. The itinerary is flexible, so you can spend more time at the places that catch your eye. Plus, there’s a stop for lunch (not included), and plenty of photo opportunities to capture the day.
