Highlights

Discover Beacon Hill's Underground Railroad history while walking its cobbled stones streets. On this historic adventure you'll see the old hidden alley's slave catchers once chased slaves, and where they hid for safety. You'll see the spots on the underground railroad that runways hid. You'll hear the stories of the brave souls that risked their lives to keep them save. This is a time in history we should never forget, and it's often overlooked in Boston's history.


This tour is unique because it's a Solo, self guided tour you can take anytime. The WalknTours app navigates you through Beacon Hill and plays the stories as you walk. It's like a personal tour guide, only it's on your phone, it's technology and way more convenient. Go when you want, at your own pace and stop anytime.
