Boston
USABoston blends Revolutionary history with a lively harbourfront food scene and walkable brick-lined neighbourhoods that make it easy to explore at an unhurried pace. It’s a city where you can move from old landmarks to waterfront views to cosy neighbourhood cafes in a single day, with each area feeling distinct but close together. Boston shines in spring and autumn, when the weather is comfortable for walking and the streets, parks, and harbour all feel especially inviting.

How many days do you need in Boston?
4 days is the right length for a first trip to Boston. That covers the Freedom Trail, Beacon Hill and the North End, Harvard and Cambridge, and a museum or a game at Fenway. With fewer days you see the highlights at a brisk pace; with more, add a day trip to Salem or Concord.
