What to Expect

Oliver Wendell Holmes called the residents of Beacon Hill “the sifted few.” Incredible wealth built the neighborhood, and many original families are still there. For over two centuries, Beacon Hill has been home to Boston’s ruling class. Artists such as Henry James, Robert Frost, Louisa May Alcott, and Silvia Plath long graced the same streets as politicos and bigwigs such as Henry Cabot Lodge, Daniel Webster, and Charles Francis Adams. Between the architecture and personalities, this tour gives a glimpse into the life of the typical Boston Brahmin.
