Pick one city you'd really love to see and spend a few days there--you will have a much, much better time.
For things to do – Boston has a ton – it all depends on what you are
looking to do. I would first suggest that you take a tour or trolley;
it’ll give you great insight as to where ‘touristy’ things are located.
Please note, that Boston is considered a ‘walking city,’ which means,
that even though things may look very far apart on map, in actuality,
the probably aren’t. There are several tours/trolleys to choose from.
One unique tour is the Boston Duck Tour. These tours sell out quickly, so you’ll have to take advantage of this
when you first arrive to Boston.
You’ll more than likely want to partake in the Freedom Trail walk.
If you are looking for ‘greener’ pastures, check out the Boston Common
and Children’s Garden, as well as take a stroll along the Charles River.
Fanueil Hall and Quincy Market are another good stop. Usually there are street performers and music going on.
The Boston Aquarium is another great stop and near the Fanueil
Marketplace. While here, you can also sign up to do a whale watch out of the Boston Harbor.
There are plenty of college campuses to check out – MIT, Harvard, Northeastern, Boston University, Boston College, etc.
If shopping is your thing, check out Newbury Street.
If you’d like to see a show – check out Blue Man Group. It’s a complete one-of-a-kind show. There is nothing like it.
Other things to check out are: Cheers, Christian Science Reflecting
Pool, Copley Square, Boston Children’s Museum, Boston Science Museum,
Isabella Stuart Gardner Art Museum (there are many museums in Boston),
etc.
Best places to eat - The Chart House, The Black Rose, The Purple Shamrock, Tia, Legal Seafoods - just to name a few.
Have a great time.
