When my wife and I were planning our trip to Boston, we saw the Wang Theatre and emailed to see if we could take a private tour. It ended up being one of the most interesting things we did in Boston. There is so much interesting history surrounding the theater, and our tour guide was able to go in depth and clearly knew the history without it seeming like she was just there to show us around or reading from a script. She was really engaging and answered all of my questions. We saw every floor, including the VIP area, and the guide had stories to tell everywhere. From the architecture, history, and its relationship to music and film, the theater has a rich past that we found fascinating. Thanks for the tour!

5-Tour Guide was very knowledgeable. I especially enjoyed the old amenities available to patrons in the 1920’s. The modern improvements are spectacular!
