“Our experience with your company was fantastic. They really went above and beyond to make our Boston experience wonderful. Our guides really knew how to make the tour interesting. Some people try to appeal to kids and fail miserably, but they were just corny enough, without losing the respect of the students. We learned lots of behind the scenes information that isn’t in text books. We will definitely plan a tour again with you next year.” – Tom, Pioneer Valley Christian School
Sons and Daughters of Liberty Tour
An Adventure in History! and incorporating standards from the National Council for Social Studies, our Sons and Daughters of Liberty Tour is a hands-on, educational field trip experience that brings to life the story of the American Revolution and the birth of our nation. This tour is perfect for middle school students as an interactive and fun way to make history jump off their texts books and come to life! Guided by a costumed Son or Daughter of Liberty, you will be lead down the Road to the American Revolution starting where the very first Puritans landed in Charlestown. From there you will be guided through the city and along the Freedom Trail to various historical sites from Faneuil Hall, the “Cradle of Liberty”, to The Granary Burying Ground where Boston’s members of the Founding Fathers now lay to rest. This 2 ½ hour tour serves as the perfect supplement to learning about the American Revolution in the classroom. Our guides engage the students with activities, historical replicas, and traditions that immerse them in the history of Boston! Taking students out and in front of the country’s most treasured historical sites, while encouraging them to use the knowledge they learned in the classroom, only serves to enhance their educational experience.
