Bunker Hill Monument Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour

What your day looks like

Start by downloading the Action Tour Guide app, which will function as your personal guide, audio tour, and map all in one. Once you’ve downloaded the tour, your journey will begin at the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston. There, you’ll learn about the construction of the monument and the organization behind it before beginning your tour of the park. Next, stop at the statue of Colonel William Prescott and hear why this man was so integral to the American resistance during the battle. After that, you’ll circle the park, getting different views of the monument and the city of Boston as you listen to a dramatic recounting of the battle itself. Hear about the arrival of the colonists and their risky overnight fortification-building. Be a fly on the wall when the British commanders realized what was taking place and formulated their plan of attack. And listen to a blow-by-blow account of the British assaults on the colonial lines which turned this into one of the bloodiest days of the Revolutionary War.
