More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The van eases out of Boston before sunrise and the city loosens its grip—brownstone facades give way to maple-lined streets and wide village greens. Inside a comfortable Honda Odyssey, your guide folds history into the quiet of the drive: the route Paul Revere took, the alarm riders who threaded the countryside, and the sound of musket fire that altered an empire. By the time the van pulls onto Lexington Green, the air tastes like early spring or late autumn—crisp, with the low thrum of the Concord River calling from the valley.
