Who is Jeremiah Poope?
I'm a Boston-based tour guide who believes history should be as entertaining as it is educational. With a passion for storytelling and a knack for making the past come alive, I've turned walking the Freedom Trail into an experience people actually remember.
What started as a love for Boston history has evolved into a mission: prove that learning about the past doesn't have to put you to sleep. My tours combine rigorous historical accuracy with humor, personality, and the kind of stories that make you say "wait, REALLY?"
When I'm not leading tours, you'll find me creating history content on TikTok (14.6K followers and counting), restoring old photos, and diving deep into Revolutionary War rabbit holes that nobody asked about but everyone ends up fascinated by.
What Makes My Tours Different
🎯 Accuracy Meets Entertainment
I don't sacrifice facts for fun. Every joke is backed by research, every story is historically sound. You'll learn real history - you'll just actually enjoy it.
🎠Personality & Perspective
History isn't just dates and dead people. It's drama, scandal, heroism, and humanity. I bring the personalities of the past to life in ways textbooks never could.
📱 Modern Storytelling
Influenced by years of creating TikTok content, I know how to keep attention and build narrative momentum. No droning lectures - just compelling stories.
💡 Deep Knowledge
I'm not reading from a script. Ask me anything about Revolutionary Boston and I'll give you an answer that leads to three more fascinating stories.
