The Shaka Guide Freedom Trail Tour in Boston, Massachusetts, literally walks you through the historic events that led up to the American Revolution and our country’s ultimate freedom from British rule. The Freedom Trail is the birthplace of American liberty and is also historic in many other ways. Along this tour, you’ll meet the patriots who rose to the challenge — ordinary people who succeeded under extraordinary circumstances to fight for the freedom we know today.

Here are just a few of the fun things you can do on the tour!

• Stroll through Boston Common, America’s oldest public park with rich history.
• Visit the Massachusetts State House for its golden dome and historic significance.
• Explore Granary Burying Ground, the resting place of famous Revolutionary figures.
• See King’s Chapel and Burying Ground, home to Boston’s oldest graves.
• Stop by Old South Meeting House, where colonists planned the Boston Tea Party.

AMAZING GUIDE!

You will not be disappointed! This was a delightful way to experience the big island. The app works off GPS so it works and gives directions even when you’re in restricted service areas. Info is accurate and incredibly helpful… turn by turn. We LOVED the Kohala tour (STUNNING VIEWS) and listening to the history behind this beautiful island (and lovely music when Uncle isn’t talking). It made the experience really special. We’ll be using this app for the rest of our time here and can’t wait to explore some National Parks on the mainland with the Shaka Guide. Thanks for a great day!

Hawaiian honeymoon

We researched what we wanted to visit on Kauai but never would’ve been able to do them all without the ShakaGuide driving tour. Clear directions, options for personalization, and so much history. I can’t wait to use it again as we visit National parks on the mainland!
