Strike a Pose with History - Selfies with Statues!
Discover the stories behind the statues on Boston’s iconic Commonwealth Avenue Mall — and snap a selfie with every stop! There are eight statues along the Mall, each honoring heroic, trailblazing men and women whose actions shaped history. Think Alexander Hamilton (sing it!), Abigail Adams, William Lloyd Garrison and more! You'll hear all about them and be able to take great snaps during this 90-minute tour, led by a fun, engaging, local guide.
This lively tour strolls beneath a canopy of leafy trees on a smooth, paved path. In addition to the statues, you'll hear about the grand Victorian brownstones and stories of the people, colleges and organizations who were all part of the Back Bay neighborhood. Curious about the Back Bay today? We’ve got you covered—from local authors to the friendly dog culture, to seeing where NFL great Tom Brady once called home. All great selfie opportunities too!
Whether you're a local or visiting from afar, this Selfies with Statues walking tour is the perfect chance to show yourself off surrounded by history, beauty, and Back Bay charm.
