When the sun goes down in Boston, the ghosts and ghouls come out! The Ghosts and Gravestones Boston Tour ensures that you meet every one of them and learn each of their warped and wailing histories. Step aboard the Trolley of the Doomed and join your host, a seventeenth century grave digger, cursed with a sentence of eternal damnation. This wretched creature is doomed to travel the streets of Boston and relay the stories of the unfortunate souls he has encountered and the macabre events he had been witness to during his purgatory.
Walk amongst the dead inside two of the oldest local burying grounds. Learn about the occupants of the gravestones and hear about the biggest grave-looting scandal in New England's history. Hear about Boston's most sinister characters, including a cursed privateer, a homicidal opera singer and the infamous Boston Strangler.
The city is almost four hundred years old and in that time, it has seen more than its fair share of murders, wars and trouble, earning it the reputation of one of America's most haunted cities. Your ghoulish guides will captivate you with stories of Jolly Jane, the 'Nightmare Nurse' who killed over thirty of her patients and Cotton Mather, often credited with laying the groundwork that inspired the Salem witch trials through his influential writings.
This tour is suitable and entertaining for adults and teenagers who are interested in learning a less conventional history of the city of Boston, complete with a little fake blood and a few theatrics.

Tasty food is never far away in the North End. Your guide will introduce you to a small, hidden Italian bakeryserving up fresh bread daily. A proper Italian salumeria is next, where you'll have a chance to enjoy a classic Italian deli-style sandwich.

Here, you will have a chance to enjoy your choice of a classic cappuccino, espresso or tea. As you let the caffeine kick in, your guide will go back in time into North End history.

It also happens to be the site of the birth of public education in America. You'll definitely want to have your guide snap your picture with the bronze donkey outside the entrance.

Travel right back in time with us. The date is December 16, 1773. Prepare to relive one of the most monumental events in the history of the USA. It was on this night that a group of colonists organised what is now known as the Boston Tea Party. In fact the group were so enraged by what they considered to be unfair taxation laws that they reacted by hurling more than 300 crates of tea into the harbour in protest. This emblematic moment in history has been said to represent one of the first events which led to the American Revolutionary War. Discover the floating Boston Tea Party Ships and museum where you will see authentically restored replicas of the original tea ships and an array of fascinating exhibits that are fully interactive. Re-enact the momentous occasion as our museum guides take on their roles as indignant colonists. See an original tea chest that has been passed down over the generations for some 230 years. Watch an informative film which enlightens you about all the action before you pop in for a nice cup of tea at Abigail's Tea Room. Your tour gives you and an educational and entertaining insight into these remarkable moments in American History, enabling you to get a feel for how the patriots felt when they began their opposition which eventually won them the freedom of the U.S.A.
