bino42965 Posted August 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I am sailing on the Grandeur to Boston in October. I am really wanting to take a tour of Fenway Park. I have looked for excursions but haven't seen anything. Can someone please let me know if you have toured the park while on a RC cruise or I could go about doing it without getting left in Boston?

What is the exact date Grandeur will be in Boston and what are the exact port times? If the Red Sox are in post season play, you might not know until the last minute if there is a timing conflict. Tours are given hourly on a daily basis, but tours stop 3 hours before game time. https://www.mlb.com/redsox/ballpark/tours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LINDAE3213 Posted August 12, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The day our ship was in there was no home game...Sept 2015. We took taxi from ship pier directly to Fenway and took the tour. Then we walked to Cheers then Faneuil Hall and eventually headed back to ship. Unless things changed at the pier it is a bit of a walk from ship to taxi stand area. And the taxi cost around $20 one way. It is do-able, just check the schedule and go early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie12820 Posted August 12, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I’d definitely recommend an Uber or Lyft to get to Fenway and back. This season is looking pretty good so chances are there will be post-season games happening. [emoji6] Fenway is definitely a site to see, I totally recommend it!

maggieq Posted August 12, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 12, 2018 We did the Fenway park tour last October. Booked it online and took a taxi there and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1025cruise Posted August 12, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 12, 2018 At this rate, the Sox will definitely be in post season this year :) I had a customer with a location near Fenway. We were scheduling some night work, and I was being very mindful of the post season play in terms of scheduling, as in I didn't want to be there if there was a game.

poocher Posted August 12, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Smack in the middle of post season which begins 10/3. Hard to tell exactly which days will have home games at Fenway but a distinct possibility on 10/13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyrab Posted August 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted August 12, 2018 We visited Fenway park last October when on Vision of the Seas cruise. Took the HOHO bus & got off there. We also visited the TD hockey & basketball spot. It was my sons day. I went along for the ride. A bit of a walk to get to the hoho booth but on the way back they bring you right to the door. They were also very mindful of cruise ship passengers. If any cruisers missed their ship it would ruin their reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiffymom Posted August 13, 2018 #13 Share Posted August 13, 2018 We took the hop on off trolly. They drove right by Fenway. You can get off at that stop. Catch return later. Not sure of tours but at least you will get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
