• South Station - Our historic tour begins at one of Boston’s most underappreciated marvels of architecture: South Station. We’ll take a moment to analyze the enormous eagle and clock dominating the facade.

Note: This 1+mile-long tour covers the essentials of Harborwalk and Tea party in 1-1.5 hours.

• Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum - As we walk along Boston’s Harborwalk, we’ll look out across the water for a glimpse of an actual blast from the past: a colonial ship packed with tea crates! We’ll learn about the events of Boston’s Tea Party but we’ll also dive deeper: what really caused this riot? Why were taxes so high? What did a far-away international war have to do with the price of tea in Boston?
• Federal Reserve Bank of Boston - Right across the street, we’ll find a stunning example of modern architecture with the Federal Reserve. As we walk past, we’ll learn the intriguing stories behind the bland name.
• Atlantic Wharf - At Russia Wharf, we’re officially at the start of our Harborwalk journey and our trip into the past. We’ll learn about the booming international trade during the colonial era…. the foundation which would later lead to the epic Boston Tea Party.
• Harbor Towers - The Brutalist-style Harbor Towers are unmissable. Brutalism was all the rage in the 1970s. Today, the style polarizes observers. Some people see a kind of strange beauty in the sparse, overbearing structures. Others see, well, just plain ugly buildings! These days, you can always identify the style anywhere by its grim, fortress-like appearance. We’ll learn about the towers, Boston’s struggle between affordable and luxury living, and one of the city’s most ambitious projects: cleaning up this very harbor.
• Rowes Wharf - Our journey brings us to Rowe’s Wharf — named for one of the tea smugglers who encouraged the “Tea Party”! We’ll learn about John Rowe and his adventures with the law as we walk through.
• The Marina at Rowes Wharf - The Harbor Hotel is a stunning piece of architecture, blending modern and colonial styles seamlessly. Its 80-foot copper dome contains a glass cupola. If you walk to the center of the archway and look straight up, you can see all the through the top of the dome to the glass cupola above.
• Long Wharf - Our tour along the scenic Harborwalk ends at one of Boston’s most historic spots: Long Wharf. From colonial battles against the British to modern crowds of tourists, this Wharf remains a Boston hotspot. Enjoy the views and history as we conclude our story at this scenic stop.
• New England Aquarium - We’re now approaching a popular stop in Boston and along the Harborwalk: the Aquarium! This huge attraction is partially built over the Harbor, allowing the aquarium access to the natural environment of Boston’s Harbor.
• Boston Harborwalk - The Harborwalk is 43 miles long, but we’ll focus on the historic Waterfront District from South Station to Long Wharf. That’s only about 1 mile. We’ll cover everything from the Boston Tea Party to the newest skyscrapers along the shore.
