Look for the glass-and-metal awning that extends over the sidewalk—this is right beside the Surface Rd & Hanover St bus stop. Above the entrance, you’ll see a sign that reads “Massachusetts Department of Transportation”. This is the correct door and the spot where your guide will be waiting.

Ilan was our tour guide and he did an exceptional job. He was knowledgeable, a great listener, and had so many unique historical facts & stories that we were engaged for the entire tour. Our brains hurt trying to absorb and remember all of it! Thank you Ilan!
