A charming city rich in American history, culture, and innovation, Boston is where cobblestone streets meet Ivy League intellect — all complemented by scenic river views and exceptional vegetarian food.
About Boston
Boston blends historic landmarks with modern vibrancy. Home to Harvard and MIT, it's a haven for curious minds, while the Freedom Trail and Beacon Hill capture the essence of early America. Explore the boutique shops of Newbury Street, kayak on the Charles River, and enjoy delicious vegetarian meals at top-rated restaurants. Whether strolling through historic alleys or enjoying a rooftop dinner with skyline views, Boston’s energy is both intellectual and inviting.
My Experience
We arrived in Boston after NYC and checked into The Newbury Boston, where the rooftop dining views were stunning. Shopping along Newbury Street felt like stepping into a fashionable local storybook. One of the highlights was the Segway tour zipping past the Freedom Trail and through the Seaport was both fun and informative. We kayaked on the Charles River under clear skies, and dinner at Oleana and Veggie Galaxy was comforting and creative. The city felt walkable, calm, and full of old-world charm.
