Meeting and pickup
Meet at the Boylston St entrance to the Prudential Center at 800 Boylston. This entrance is encased in glass and shares the same plaza as Eataly and Tesla.
The standard route is a loop with pick up and drop off at the Boylston St entrance to the Prudential Building at 800 Boylston St. However, tours are private and customizable and can be started and ended at most points in the Back Bay, Fenway, South End, North End, Downtown, or Seaport neighborhoods. For example, guests sometimes request to be picked up or dropped off at a particular hotel, parking garage, train station, restaurant, etc. I can often often accommodate these requests with advance notice by altering the tour route to include your desired pick up/drop off points. Please message me to discuss the feasibility of a desired pick up/drop off if it differs from my standard location of 800 Boylston.
End point
Meet at the Boylston St entrance to the Prudential Center at 800 Boylston. This entrance is encased in glass and shares the same plaza as Eataly and Tesla.
