About Tour Guide Russell W.

Born in Boston, raised in Lexington and a traveler myself, I am intimately familiar with the history of my city and what a visitor would want to explore.

I majored in Classical Civilization and History at Boston University. Following my graduation, I worked as an archeologist in Greece, before becoming an independent traveler, supporting myself as I went.

As we walk Boston, the history from books becomes tangible. It is also a town where unique and special is hidden in plain site. I will help you experience it. From Section 24 at Fenway, the starting line in Hopkinton and the coxswain’s seat on The Head of the Charles, I know the connection between Boston and its sports. If culture is your passion, we can visit the Boston Public Library, the bookstores of Harvard Square or one of the many amazing Museums.

If you want to get outside the city, Lexington and Concord, the clam shacks of the North Shore and more await.

I have been an unofficial guide for visiting friends and family for years, and I invite you share my passion for Boston.
