Boston holidays

History on foot and harbour time between neighbourhoods.

Boston combines a walkable historic core with neighbourhood food and waterfront interests. Choose a few historical stops, then leave time for parks, cafés and an outing across the river if it appeals.

Boston

Make it your kind of trip.

Historic route

Use part of the Freedom Trail as a framework, allowing time at the sites that most interest you.

Harbour pause

Build in a waterfront walk or a suitable boat outing between city visits.

Across to Cambridge

Consider a separate half-day for a different neighbourhood perspective rather than rushing there between appointments.
