Magical History Tour
Join us for our fifth annual exploration of fascinating historic sites around Greater Portland that you've never seen or maybe didn't even know! The Magical History Tour is your key to unlocking fascinating historical places that are not usually open to the public. It is a selfguided adventure which is guaranteed to amaze and amuse both adults and children. Equipped with a map, and at your own pace, you will be greeted by guides at each location ready to share the history of the tour stop.
In the 5th year of the Magical History Tour, we will be presenting an exciting mix of both new sites and favorites from the past four years.
The Magical History Tour checkin begins at 9︰45 a．m. at Maine Historical Society's Brown Library. At this time, you will find out where the tour will take you as you receive your map and ticket into each site.
Follow us on Twitter and Instagram for updates, chances to win tickets and some other exciting opportunities; and feel free to share your tour experiences to our social media pages using MHStour!
