Summary
Boston has long been world-renowned for its history and the role it played during the American Revolution. Today, it combines that history with one of the finest park systems in the country and BrighPath Tours is pleased to take you on a tour of its earliest park, the Boston Public Garden. Besides the many beautiful and historic plantings throughout, the Garden is home to the famous Swan Boats and a collection of monuments and memorials that date from before the Civil War all the way up to the 20th century. Here, you'll find well-known preachers, speakers, and philanthropists, as well as abolitionist firebrands and honored military leaders.
Take a walk around the Garden with BrightPathTours while we view the works of the greatest sculptors, architects, and foundrymen of the time. We'll even visit a monument, the likes of which you've probably never seen before—the unique memorial to a chemical compound!
Welcome to Boston's Public Garden!
