I just moved to Boston and wanted to get a feel for the city beyond sitting in a tour bus. I found a brochure for Urban AdvenTours, a company that provides guide bike tours of the city, and I decided to give it a try. They offer three tours by bike: a city tour, a photo tour, and an art and architechture tour. I did the city tour. The tour lasted 2 and a half hours and took me and a small group (there were six of us) from Kenmore Square past Fenway Stadium, through gardens, around Back Bay, up to the North End, across the Washington Street Bridge into Charlestown, and through the Esplanade that runs along the Charles River. We stopped along the way and our guide, Andrew, explained to us the history of the city and some of the current issues of Boston. It was very thorough and it felt really good to navigate through the city on a bike. The tour includes a bike to ride, a helmet and a bottle of water. It was very informative and lots of fun! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to get a real feeling for the city of Boston.
