Boston is one of the oldest cities in America, so it goes without saying that it’s steeped in history. While it might have started out as a key seaport, it’s come a long way since then and is now considered to be one of the most innovative cities in the world. It hasn’t lost that old fashioned charm though. The largest city in New England still boasts cobbled streets and pre-Revolution landmarks. Spend a few days here as part of a larger tour of the East coast, or it can easily be the main focus of your holiday.
The Freedom Trail is one of the most popular activities in Boston and simply cannot be missed. The three-mile long route takes in all the sites of Old Boston. There are guided tours which come with a costumed tour guide, but you can just as easily download a map and create your own itinerary.
Of course, the newer side of Boston will give you a completely different view of the city. Head to the Institute of Contemporary Art for something a little different or go to Back Bay and hit the shops. You’ll find everything from high street to designer in this part of the city, so it’s well worth a visit if you’re looking for a new wardrobe. Newbury Street is home to the stylish boutiques, while Filene’s Basement on Boylston Street is perfect for the bargain hunters.
Contemporary city life is perfectly captured at Faneuil Hall, while Quincy Market is enlivened by clowns and magicians. Take a wander round the city to relax in the floral gardens and green parks or walk the famous Boston Common for an afternoon of fresh air and beautiful sights. Of course, you can’t visit Boston and not pay a visit to Fenway Park, the home of the star baseball team, the Boston Red Sox. Grab a drink and a stadium tour or even better, get tickets to one of the matches for an unforgettable experience.

Where you stay is the heart of your holiday. Location reigns supreme but do you prefer resort facilities or unique and boutique? Historic and old world or modern and shiny?
We aim to present choices across the spectrum but there are many hundreds of places to stay and not room to feature them all. Do speak to your Bon Voyage travel consultant and click the video for our take on this important topic.
We would rate the Bellagio as one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. Fabulous, glitzy, exciting. We loved having breakfast at the poolside café... one of our best experiences ever. If it hadn't been for you we wouldn't have had the suite or cabana and we loved them. We both agreed that the hotel was the best for us and you had suggested that so well done!
