MassRoam: Massachusetts
History, Tours & Trails
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
There's a story on every road in Massachusetts — from the first Plymouth landing to the shot heard 'round the world. MassRoam puts them all on one map, and now it reads them to you.
Start with 82,000+ historic places from the Massachusetts Historical Commission and the National Register: old burying grounds, town commons, meetinghouses, mills, courthouses, museums, battlefields, and landmarks from the Berkshires to the tip of Cape Cod and out to Nantucket. Tap any pin to read its story — or tap Listen and hear it — get directions, and check in when you arrive.
THE MAP IS FREE — ALWAYS
Every one of those places is free to explore, forever:
• 77,000+ landmarks and 72,000+ National Register places
• 4,600+ historical markers
• 500+ cemeteries and burying grounds
• 103 colleges and universities
• Museums, courthouses, battlefields, and National Park sites
Earn points for the places you visit, climb the ranks, and collect regional titles. Your History shows every place you've checked in to. No account needed to play — sign in only to back up your progress and sync it across iPhone, iPad, and the web.
HEAR THE HISTORY
Choose your narrator — Michael or Heart — and every tour stop, trail, and historic place can be read aloud in a natural, real-sounding voice. Massachusetts names are said the Massachusetts way: Worcester, Gloucester, Peabody, Quincy. Prefer your iPhone's own voice? That's an option too.
305 GUIDED TOURS
When you want a route instead of a map, pick a guided tour — 305 of them, with 1,800+ narrated stops across Boston, Salem, Worcester, Springfield, Cape Cod, and more:
• Ghosts & hauntings — Salem and beyond, in the most haunted corner of America
• The Revolution — Lexington, Concord, Bunker Hill, Paul Revere, and the Freedom Trail
• The 1692 witch trials, the whaling ports of New Bedford and Nantucket, and the mill towns that built New England
• 113 campus tours — Harvard, MIT, the Five Colleges, and campuses statewide
• Film & TV locations, literary landmarks, maritime heritage, public art, and food
Each tour links its stops into a real driving or walking route, with narration that starts as you arrive. Six tours are free to try, including the Freedom Trail.
6,900+ MASSACHUSETTS TRAILS
Lace up and go — hiking, walking, and biking trails statewide, each with a write-up, difficulty, surface, and a real map.

Happy Halloween! Haunted Mode turns on automatically on October 30 and 31 — the map goes moonlit, with ghost tours in Salem, Boston, Plymouth and beyond. Prefer your own look? Pick any map theme in Profile and it stays.
