Stroll along the 2.5-mile historic Freedom Trail and learn about America’s history, explore Boston Common’s beautiful green space and see the 'The Embrace' – a bronze sculpture that commemorates Martin Luther King and his wife Coretta. Take a swan boat ride or grab a coffee and soak up the city’s atmosphere. Enjoy fresh seafood by the bay or head down to Little Italy and sit outside under the lights listening to the music play from the restaurants. To help you see all of Boston’s sights we have included the one day Boston Old Town Trolley tour.
