Mötesplats
Turen samlas inne i Boston Public Garden – mittemot 67 Beacon Street (02108) – bredvid statyerna Make Way for Ducklings, som ligger i nordöstra hörnet av parken.
Bostons ledande roll i den amerikanska kampen för kvinnlig rösträtt finns på de trädkantade gatorna i dess eleganta stadsdel Back Bay. Detta mästerverk av viktoriansk arkitektur upplevs bäst till fots, i en liten grupp, med en lokal guide! Din 2,5-timmars tur reser från Boston Common till historiska Back Bay, och besöker landmärken som du måste se, som Public Garden, Newbury Street och ikoniska Copley Square.
Vår rundvandring går djupt in i åren 1870 till 1920, tumultartade decennier som kulminerade i att kvinnor fick rösträtt i USA. Gå i fotspåren av produktiva aktivister och finansiärer och besök den politiska slagmarken för grupper som är för- och mot rösträtt.
Med ett fängslande berättande tillvägagångssätt ger Hub Town Tours den perfekta introduktionen till Bostons roll i främjandet av kvinnors rättigheter. När vi reser förbi viktiga landmärken och historiska hem delar din guide fängslande berättelser om Bostonborna som samlade Women's Suffrage Movement.

Great tour, great guide -- highly recommend
Fantastic tour! A great overview of the women's suffrage movement and Boston's role in it. I'm familiar with Back Bay, but this tour made me look at it through a different lens. Maura was an incredible guide -- extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic about the subject, and just a pleasant companion for the walk. Kudos to Hub Town Tour for putting this together -- the Boston Women's Heritage Trail doesn't get the attention it deserves. Take this tour now!
Operatörens svar
Wow, thank you for this fantastic review and five stars for Maura! We're thrilled to know not only that you enjoyed the history of Boston's fight for votes for women, but also that you got that new lens on the beautiful Back Bay neighborhood. Maura is a superb local historian--and history graduate student--and also wonderful company. We appreciate the kudos, as Hub Town Tours is proud to share this important part of our city's history!

Highlight of our trip to Boston!
Kaitlin did an excellent job! Made the tour fun and was able to answer our questions! We did their Freedom Trail tour the day prior with Ted and immediately signed up for the Women’s Suffrage tour the next day. I would definitely book with Hub Town again, definitely a must do if you’re in Boston!
Operatörens svar
Wow, thank you so much for five stars for Kaitlin, and for sharing your whole Hub Town Tours experience! We love being your "must do" and hope you will join us again: we cover three Revolutions in Boston, the other being Abolition and the Underground Railroad on historic Beacon Hill! Kaitlin is an excellent historian, passionate about sharing Boston's Suffrage effort to gain votes for women, and about sharing the beautiful, historic Back Bay. She brings a performer's talents to her stories and loves to answer questions. We're very happy you had two great experiences on our tours.

Fantastic tour
My friend and I had a fantastic time on this tour in August 2026. Zoe met us promptly at the public gardens in Boston, and from there we proceeded on a several hour tour of Boston that was both rich in history as well as enjoyable in scenery. Zoe's knowledge of suffragette history in New England was impressive, inclusive, and detailed. Zoe lives in Boston and has intimate knowledge and great enthusiasm for the city, which really shines through on the tour. We had an enjoyable time walking through the Boston public gardens, Back Bay neighborhoods, visiting the houses of prominent activists, visiting the beautiful Boston public library, and walking through a farmers markets. Great blend of lecture, walking, viewing, and resting along the way.

Fascinating walking tour
We were thoroughly impressed with this interesting and informative tour. We have lived in Boston for about 30 years, and we feel like we know the city and its history fairly well. This tour, however, opened our eyes to a whole layer of history with which we were mostly unfamiliar. We are very grateful to have the new insights that our knowledgeable guide Zoe provided with such clarity, enthusiasm, and intelligence. The emphasis on concepts such as "the political is domestic, the domestic is political" and the difficulty of maintaing coalitions are important not only to the evolution of the women's suffrage debate but also--without question--to the painful issues that face us in the current day.
Thank you for this tour which was very meaningful and inspiring for us and which we are encouraging our friends to take as well.

Zoe is a such a talented, insightful educator and guide, and she loves what she does. We are thrilled to know you found her stories important and inspiring, and we so appreciate your recommending this tour!

Awesome tour!!
We absolutely loved our tour! Our tour guide, Zoe, was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The tour was a great length and the weather was perfect for walking around Boston! We all learned so much about the women of Boston that influenced the suffrage movement. I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
Operatörens svar
Thank you so much for this excellent review of Zoe's tour! Our Votes for Women tour focuses on the struggle for equal rights during the late-19th and early 20th centuries, a struggle which eventually led to the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920. These stories remain so relevant today, and we're thrilled you enjoyed hearing them with Zoe!

Understanding Boston's Contribution to Progressive Thinking: The Women's Suffrage Movement
The "Votes for Women History Tour" provides an excellent synthesis of the various cross development of women's suffrage movement in the Boston area. The 2.5 hour walking tour through beautiful Back Bay Boston introduces various personages, such as Abigail Adams, Lucy Stone, Phyllis Wheatley, and a host of others, where biographies and activism and impacts are explored. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The guide provided a highly interactive and lasting experience. Highly recommended!
