Overview

See all of Boston and Cambridge from the comfort of a heated and air-conditioned modern minivan. This is a full-day driving tour that takes you through every highlight of the area. The drive will include sights such as the Old North Church, Paul Revere's house, Faneuil Hall, Boston Common, Beacon Hill, Bunker Hill Monument, USS Constitution, Harvard, MIT, Copley Square, Boston Public Library and so much more! The tour is mainly driving, however we will (optionally) stop a few times to briefly (2-3 minutes) get out of the car for photo opportunities! Listen to stories about Boston's past, learning about the American Revolution and the city's duality of religious morals and corruption. Hear stories about the local mobsters. The tour takes a break in the middle for free time for lunch and souvenirs. Lunch options include the oldest tavern in America, the oldest restaurant in America, an artisanal food & goods market with 20+ vendor options (chowder, lobster rolls, doughnuts, coffee, ice cream, etc), and more.
