Tour Overview
Concord is a must-see for any culture vulture out there, from its revolutionary history to its literary heritage! On this private tour of Concord, you'll learn how a town molded by revolt, militias, and revolutionary spirit became one of America's most significant historical sites.
Around 2,000 militiamen, termed "minutemen" for their ability to spring into action at a moment's notice, gathered in this town to chase the British troops. Learn how the British and the 2,000 militiamen fought each other viciously on the battlefield and in these same streets. The Battle of Concord, the first bloody day of the American War of Independence, took place on the town's North Bridge, which has a strong and major national significance. When word of the battle reached London, it made a powerful message about the patriot soldiers' tenacity. Concord is remembered as the first military action of the American Revolutionary War, paving the way for the Declaration of Independence and the formation of the United States of America.
