Leisure

Discover this great city from the Skywalk Observatory in the Prudential Center…a nice viewpoint for discovering the birthplace of the American Revolution, or from the port so as not to do like everyone else! From Back Bay to Beacon Hill, and from Newbury Street to North End, Boston achieves surprising cocktails, with a blend of history, culture, shops, restaurants, cinemas, bars and wild discos. From guided visits of the Freedom Trail to the masterpieces of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, from shopping trips to Harvard Square, Newbury Street and Quincy Market, you won’t have any chance to end up going around in circles. And, for the weekend, Newport, Salem, the Niagara Falls and New York are so close, don’t hesitate to get out there and explore!
