What you can expect

Explore Boston on this unique walking tour that uncovers the city’s long history of transformation, innovation, and adaptation. Perfect for architecture enthusiasts, history buffs, and curious urban explorers, this experience reveals how Boston’s ever-changing cityscape tells the story of a city built on reinvention.

As we follow some of Boston’s oldest streets and hidden alleys, you’ll learn how the city has continually reshaped its geography—flattening hills, filling in coves, and rerouting rivers—to support its growth. We’ll examine the layers of infrastructure, from early colonial roads to modern transportation networks, that define how Bostonians move through and interact with their environment.
Discover the urban design decisions, civil engineering feats, and planning challenges that have defined Boston’s development over the centuries. You’ll also explore how past choices inform the city’s response to contemporary issues like climate change, rising sea levels, and urban density.

You will never look at a man hole cover the same way again!
