The Boston Waterfront Tour
Photo provided by PhotoWalks
Though best known for its "tea party" in 1773, Boston Harbor was a busy port for trade and immigration. Today, a walk along the harbor uncovers scenic views and photo opportunities of a luxurious waterfront.
Waves of immigrants coming to the New World crossed Boston Harbor. British soldiers landed on Long Wharf when the colonists began to resist British rule (and they sailed out of the same place after being defeated). Learn about Boston Harbor’s place in early American history as your guide takes you on a photo tour of the waterfront. Stops include:
- Old State House
- Boston’s first skyscraper
- Scenic views of Boston Harbor
- Paul Revere’s House
- Old North Church
Inclusions :- Guided, narrated tour
- Copy of the PhotoWalks Guide to Creative Photography
