Any “Must Do’s” in Boston?

[Rusty]

We’re heading to Boston for the weekend.   Are there any sights or activities that are mandatory for first time tourists?

You could take a tour of the USS Constitution if you're into history.

Avoid the “Duck Tour” super cheesy drive a bus that is also a boat into the harbor, it’s what they’re known for we did it and wish we passed on it.

Fenway Park, North End, Freedom Trail and walk through Harvard Yard, then you can say you went to Harvard….

That is on the agenda, we enjoy history.  

Sports, not so much.

Never been but from what I heard Boston’s little Italy has some very good food.  From what I heard way better then NYCs.  Enjoy the weekend!

Aquarium was pretty cool and then just walking the street and shops near Faneuil Hall Marketplace.  Lots of really cool street performers and good grab and go food.

You can spend the entire day just going in and out of the shops.  You can grab a map and walk your own street tour as well.  Pretty big park in town that had a huge Marijuana festival last time I was there with my kids!!!!  Dad what is that smell and all the smoke??  Ok guys time to go!!!  Paul Revere house is close as well
