Description:

Cruise through Boston and get a glimpse into the city’s past as you glide along its streets atop a thrilling Segway. Visit sites brimming with American history, snap pictures of charming brick architecture, and uncover hidden parts of the city most tourists never get the chance to see.

Start on Boylston Street, in the heart of downtown, and head east past the Public Gardens into Boston Common. This 50-acre (20-ha) expanse of well-manicured lawns, shady trees, and stone pathways is where British Troops gathered on the eve of the American Revolutionary War.

Follow the line of the Freedom Trail to historic sites nearby, including the Granary Burial Ground—where Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Paul Revere were laid to rest. Take a break and grab some photos on your curious contraption using the grand façade of the “New” State House—Massachusetts’ capitol building—as a backdrop.

On your way to Boston Harbor, ride through the vibrant Chinatown district to check out the colorful storefronts run by Chinese and Vietnamese families. Arrive at the waterfront and weave around bustling crowds while you imagine the tradesmen and merchants that once poured into this busy port.

Turning away from the bobbing ships, make your way back to your starting point, taking last-minute opportunities to enjoy your adventurous ride.
