Description

Take a Bite Out of History in Boston, Massachusetts for Four Days & Three Nights at the Fairmont Copley Plaza for Two, Including a North End to the Freedom Trail Food and History Tour (Land Only)


Boston is the epitome of the historical and the contemporary in North America, with its unique blend of colonial history and cutting-edge innovation. It's a place where you can explore diverse neighborhoods, visit civic landmarks, walk along historic trails, browse iconic museum collections full of amazing artifacts, enjoy the performing arts, view inspirational architecture, and dine on traditional New England fare. With this trip you're invited to take a walk through antiquity along the Freedom Trail and bite into incredible Italian food as you stroll through the city's oldest neighborhoods of the North End, all while you stay at Boston's most celebrated address, Fairmont Copley Plaza in the historic Back Bay!


Combine two attractions Boston has to offer—delicious food and rich heritage—on this brilliant half-day tour that starts in the popular North End and continues along the Freedom Trail to give you a comprehensive introduction to the city! Snack your way through Boston's historic Little Italy, trying fresh bread at a hidden bakery and tasting Italian meats and cheeses at a proper salumeria. Learn about some of the most influential events that have happened in Boston, including Paul Revere's midnight ride, when you step inside the hallowed walls of Old North Church. A taste of pizza awaits at a neighborhood favorite and then the North End food experience winds down with samples of the best Italian pastries along the back streets.


You'll begin the second part of your journey and pass by the city's first skyscraper, Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market, the Old State House (the site of the Boston Massacre), Downtown Crossing and Old City Hall. Your tour will take you to one of the most historic places in the country, King's Chapel Burial Ground and King's Chapel, as well as Massachusetts State House, where on most weekdays, you'll have a chance to see the government at work inside the inspiring and beautiful structure. The tour continues through Beacon Hill, where you'll have a chance to take in the quintessential architecture of Boston's red brick row houses. Finally, you'll arrive at the beautiful Boston Public Garden, one of Boston's favorite green spaces, where you'll see locals walking the dogs, playing with the kids and enjoying lunch in the shade.
