A plethora of landmarks and cultural sights are seen as this motorcoach tour winds its way through the historic streets and neighborhoods of Boston. Take in a city that juxtaposes antique cobblestone streets, modern skyscrapers, centuries-old residential homes and the colonial spirit of its bustling seaport days.


Faneuil Hall & Quincy Marketplace (optional)
Faneuil Hall, hailed as the Cradle of Liberty, is a Georgian style building adjacent to the two story, 27,000 square foot Quincy Market, considered the social center of Boston. This indoor pavilion has over 100 shops, an abundance of eating establishments, and street performers that stroll through the area.

The 19th-century Beacon Hill area, the State House and the Bull & Finch Pub, inspiration for the TV series "Cheers." The Freedom Trail is two and a half miles of the most historic turf in the United States and includes Boston Common, the Massachusetts State House, King's Chapel and the balcony from which the Declaration of Independence was read on July 18, 1776.
