No matter how old you are, aquariums are always intriguing and exciting places to spend the day at–especially the New England Aquarium located at 1 Central Wharf in Boston, MA!

Like the aquarium, going to the zoo is another worthwhile experience for anyone and everyone.

On your day trip here you will be able to spend the day marveling some beautiful, exotic animals! We bet you didn’t know there were lions living in your city, so go check them out!
Fenway Park is a must-see when you are in Boston! If the Red Sox are in town and have a home game, you should definitely get tickets and go to watch! The stadium is electric, interactive and exciting making for a great experience whether you like baseball or not! Also, don’t forget to get your very own Fenway Frank while you are there! If you are visiting on a day when the Sox aren’t playing, don’t worry because you can still pop in for a tour of the park and see one of Boston’s most well-known landmarks!
If you are into shopping and want to see one of the nicer parts of Boston, Newbury Street is the place for you!

Faneuil Hall is one of Boston’s most famous spots and definitely one that makes for a great day trip experience! Walk down the promenade and explore the three historic buildings in the area! If you are looking to shop or eat, there are many great options! You are also bound to see at least one street performance going on, so take a break from walking and watch if you are interested!
If you love Italian food and you are looking for some in Boston, your best bet is to go to Boston’s Little Italy, better known as the North End!

We promise both your heart and stomach will be fulfilled after this experience!
This tour which is original and unique to Boston is arguably one of the top things you should do if you visit!
