20+ Free Things to Do and See in Boston in 2025

"Founded in 1636 as the oldest university in America, Harvard offers free tours where you can learn about its history, architecture, programs, and myths; afterwards I like to wander Harvard Square, enjoy the eclectic offerings, and listen to street musicians (Tracy Chapman got her start playing here)." - Matthew Kepnes
