Freedom Trail — Public Tour

Experience the Freedom Trail with an expert guide — no private booking required.

About this tour

Our private tours are the best way to experience Boston — fully customized, just for your group. But if you're visiting solo, as a couple, or just want to try us out, our public Freedom Trail tour is a great way to see what Makeshift Tours is all about. Same iconic route, same expert guide, same stories you won't find anywhere else. Join a group of up to 15 and walk 16 of Boston's most significant historic sites.

What's included

  • 16 iconic historic sites along the 2.5-mile Freedom Trail route
  • Capped at 15 people — intimate enough to actually hear the stories
  • The same expert guide behind all of our private tours
  • A great way to experience Makeshift Tours before going private
  • Stories you won't find in any guidebook or audio tour

Want the best version of this tour? Book it privately — your group, your pace, your questions. No strangers, no compromises.
