'Boston often appears in films. On this walk, you'll discover where.'

The park from Good Will Hunting, the government building from The Departed. The aquaraium from Ted.

They're still there. Exactly as they were. Walk up, look around —and suddenly the city clicks into focus in a way it never did before.

Stops on our Boston tour

Favicon of MovieWalks website and app

Boston Public Garden

Good Will Hunting

The Public Garden. A bench. Two men. Sean and Will. Words that cut deeper than silence. “Your move, chief.” A line that stays forever. And after Robin Williams is gone, the bench becomes more than a place. It becomes memory.

Soldier and Sailors Monument

Central Intelligence

A monument to the fallen rises in Boston. Stone. Silence. Memory carved into history. Two men arrive. Bob and Calvin. One is chaos. One is confusion. A meeting looms. The location is everything. Nothing is simple.

Favicon of MovieWalks website and app

Long Wharf

The Departed 

Boston’s waterfront. Silence before the storm. Queenan and Dignam confront Costello. Words like warnings. Like threats. Like fate. The Departed unfolds in real streets. And Scorsese captures it all—until Boston itself feels like part of the crime.

MovieWalk Boston Common Tour Overview

do you have questions?

Everything you need to know about our film tours

Do I need to book in advance?

You don’t need to make a reservation or plan ahead when you go on a MovieWalk. Just pick a walk, download it, and you can start walking right away or whenever you want.

Can I walk it with friends?

Absolutely. You can go for a walk with whoever you want—alone or with friends. Since it’s fun to follow along on your device, it’s best to have multiple devices for larger groups.

Does it work without internet?

Once MovieWalk has been downloaded, the app does not require access to the mobile network. The only requirement is that GPS is enabled; this feature is free to use. However, please note that you will need internet access if you want to use external links.

How long does the walk take?

Our MovieWalks are usually about 3 kilometers long. The duration of the walk depends, of course, on your walking speed and how long you want to stay at each location. But we estimate that it will take about 2 hours.

How long is a MovieWalk valid?

Once you purchase a MovieWalk, you can start it whenever you wish; there’s no time limit. The walk will remain accessible in the app linked to the account you used for the purchase, so even if you switch mobile phones, your MovieWalks will still be available.

we'd love to hear from you!
