JOIN US FOR THE 18TH ANNUAL HERITAGE HOMES TOUR | A JOURNEY THROUGH BOISE'S HISTORIC EAST END!

Discover History and Heritage!

We are thrilled to announce the long-awaited return of our Heritage Homes Tour (HHT) after a five-year hiatus! The 18th Annual Heritage Homes Tour will be held in the charming Historic East End Neighborhood, featuring six private homes that offer a rare glimpse into their unique architecture and fascinating hidden histories.

This year’s HHT is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to explore the architectural beauty and historical significance of these private residences. Thanks to the generosity of the homeowners, these privately owned homes will be opened to ticket holders, with Preservation Idaho volunteers providing historical and educational insights.

Whether you’re a history enthusiast, an architecture aficionado, or simply curious about the stories behind these iconic homes, the Heritage Homes Tour promises a rewarding experience that celebrates the rich heritage and cultural importance of the neighborhood.

Don’t miss out! Get your tickets today and be part of a journey through time in Boise’s Historic East End.
