History Excursion to Boston

Our next road trip adventure takes us to Boston, Georgia! 

While Boston may be the second oldest town in the county, it's current location was not where its founders originally started. In the 1860s the community shifted the town two miles down the road to be closer to the railroad station. Formally incorporated in 1870, Boston has since remained a bustling town complete with a Carnegie Library that still serves the community's appetite for literacy. The town supports not only a strong agricultural community but also a thriving business sector in their historic downtown.     

Tours meet at the Thomasville History Center at 9:30am to load onto the bus. Separate drivers can meet the group at the first tour stop by 10am. The bus will arrive back at the History Center by 4pm.

Guests are asked to wear comfortable walking clothes and closed-toe shoes. Some ventures may involve wandering off the beaten path. Water will be available but it is recommended to bring a water bottle. Lunch and additional purchases made during the Road Trip are not included in the ticket price.
