Highlights
Why it works here
The Freedom Trail connects 16 historic sites over 2.5 miles, and Wexplo narrates each one as you walk — from Paul Revere's house to the Old North Church to Bunker Hill. But it also narrates the stories between the official stops, which are equally rich.
April to June for spring bloom and fall foliage in September to October.
