Things to do in Boston, Massachusetts (MA): The Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals

February 22, 2022 Almeta Stockton

Walk the Freedom Trail the first time you visit Boston and you'll quickly get a sense of this coastal city's revolutionary spirit and history. But make sure you also explore some of Boston's fine museums (try the Isabella Stewart Gardner, featuring masterpieces displayed in their collector's mansion) and old neighborhoods (like the North End, Boston's Little Italy). You can't claim to have experienced real Boston culture, though, until you've watched a Red Sox game from the bleachers.

Real fun, self paced, cheap. You can pause and stop for a snack! Hanging out in Newport is always a good time. I learned a lot about Newport.

I rented a bike for the day. Great bike - helmet, bike pump, flat kit, and lights included. Had a nice conversation about places to bike, and was given a map with several bike trails and places of interest. Friendly, professional, convenient and quick, and the bike was a sweet ride.
