Fenway Park Tour
A guided walk through America's oldest active ballpark (1912), home of the Red Sox and the Green Monster.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
For anyone who loves baseball or Americana, standing atop the Green Monster and hearing the lore is a real thrill — it's a living shrine, not a museum.
Our read - 02
The catch: if you're indifferent to baseball it's just an old stadium, the hour-long tour is pricey, and a real game is a far better (if costlier) experience.
