Fenway Park opened in 1912, making it the oldest ballpark in the major leagues, and it remains the beating heart of baseball in Boston — a quirky, intimate, history-soaked stadium tucked into the city's Fenway neighborhood. The park's most famous feature is the Green Monster, the 37-foot left-field wall topped with coveted seats, but Fenway is full of idiosyncrasies: the lone red seat in the right-field bleachers marking the longest home run ever hit there, Pesky's Pole down the right-field line, and the hand-operated scoreboard built into the Monster.
Guided ballpark tours run year-round and take fans into the historic venue when it's quiet — typically including a visit up to the Green Monster seats (schedule permitting), the grandstand, the press level, and other vantage points, with guides recounting more than a century of Red Sox lore, from the long championship drought to the dramatic 2004 title and beyond. Because access depends on the baseball calendar and events, exact routes and stops vary, and availability is broadest outside game times and in the offseason.
For baseball fans, it's a near-mandatory Boston stop, and even casual visitors find the history and the Green Monster compelling. It's in the Fenway neighborhood near the MFA and the Gardner Museum, with the lively Kenmore Square nearby. If you'd rather see a game than tour the empty park, that's a separate ticket through the team.
What to Expect
Format
Guided walking tour of the ballpark led by a guide, into areas closed on game day. Routes vary with the schedule and often include the Green Monster seats.
Best Time
Outside game times and in the offseason for the fullest access. Availability tightens during homestands. Tours run year-round.

Tips
Check availability against the Red Sox schedule — routes and access change when the team is home. This is a tour of the park, not a game; game tickets are separate. The Green Monster seats are the highlight when the schedule allows. Pairs well with the MFA and Gardner Museum nearby.
