Boston : Wandeltocht door Harvard en Cambridge
Beschrijving
Op onze Secret Food Tour: Boston – Harvard & Cambridge, u zult ontsnappen aan de drukte van het centrum om een charmante New England college stad aan de overkant van de rivier te verkennen. Onze ervaren gidsen nemen je mee op een historisch avontuur langs statige bakstenen gebouwen en met klimop bedekte muren, het hart van Amerika's beroemdste universiteit - Harvard. Onderweg hoor je verhalen van enkele van de meest opmerkelijke voormalige bewoners van het gebied, waaronder Julia Child, Bill Gates en Mark Zuckerberg, terwijl je geniet van heerlijke delicatessen bij enkele van hun favoriete voormalige verblijfplaatsen. Tijdens de ervaring ontdek je waarom de Puriteinen deze plek kozen om een van de eerste steden van het land te stichten – en waarom zijn charme vandaag de dag nog steeds standhoudt. Harvard Square is niet alleen het decor van een gerenommeerde universiteit; het is een hoeksteen van de Amerikaanse geschiedenis.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Het bruisende Harvard Square ligt voor anker bij Harvard University, waar statige bakstenen gebouwen een lommerrijke campus vormen. Modeketens, langlopende boekwinkels en indieboetieks trekken bezoekers uit heel Boston, en relaxte bars, New American restaurants en counter-serve cafés trekken een grotendeels collegiaal publiek.
Harvard Yard is het oudste en meest prominente deel van de campus van Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Harvard University is een particuliere onderzoeksuniversiteit van de Ivy League in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Verenigde Staten. Het werd gesticht op 28 oktober 1636 en vernoemd naar de eerste weldoener, de puriteinse geestelijke John Harvard, en is het oudste instituut voor hoger onderwijs in de Verenigde Staten.
John Harvard is een bronzen sculptuur uit 1884 van Daniel Chester French aan de Harvard-universiteit in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Het Harvard Lampoon Building is een historisch gebouw in Cambridge, Massachusetts, dat vooral bekend is als de thuisbasis van The Harvard Lampoon, en voor zijn ongebruikelijke ontwerp.
Deze site werd oorspronkelijk geselecteerd door het landgoed van president John F. Kennedy voor zijn Presidentiële Bibliotheek, maar in plaats daarvan opende het in 1985 als een echt uniek, onafhankelijk luxehotel naast de Kennedy School of Government.
Dit park is een site van de geschiedenis van de Revolutionaire Oorlog en heeft nu velden, fietspaden en een creatieve speeltuin.
Vroege koloniale juristen en presidenten van Harvard College liggen begraven op deze 17e-eeuwse begraafplaats.

Great tour, and Chloe was an amazing guide! She was so friendly and knowledgeable. Chloe did a great job leading us around, telling us interesting information about the restaurants, Cambridge, and Harvard, and she made our experience very fun and enjoyable.

Went on the tour with Chloe T. and two of my roommates! Had a wonderful time learning about the Cambridge area in addition to eating a delicious cheeseburger. Even as a current Harvard student, I learned a lot more about the history of Cambridge! Highly recommend this tour!

Go on this tour for great food and interesting history of Harvard University, the Town of Cambridge and Boston. This was our 4th Secret Food Tour (others were in different cities), and while we have enjoyed them all, this one was the best because of our guide (Sean D.). Sean loves his hometown and its architecture and history (from colonial days to current times), and his enthusiasm shows. Sean kindly gave us great recommendations near our hotel in the Back Bay area of Boston and in Hyannis (our next destination). The food at each stop was very good and plentiful. We liked all the food options, but we especially liked the fish sandwich at the oyster house. We took the afternoon tour and only needed a light bite for dinner we were so full from the afternoon tour. Secret Food Tours is a good way to get a combination of local food samplings and interesting information about the city.
