Portland Maine Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour
Overview
Unearth the stories beneath historic downtown Portland, Maine on this self-guided walking tour!
In the Old Port, colonial tales linger around the Customs House and the spots where the little settlement survived an invasion and even a riot over rum! Hilly streets reveal each historic building where abolitionists preached, suffragettes met, and the tales of Civil War bravery were honored. You'll find Longfellow lore at every turn, from One Longfellow Square to the Wadsworth-Longfellow House.
Pause where you want, skip what you don't, and explore the stories that interest you most.
This isn't an entrance ticket. Check opening hours before your visit.
