The Greater Boston Area
Boston has a rich colonial history, and is a city alive with diversity. During your visit you may want to take in such sites as the Freedom Trail, Park Street Church, Faneuil Hall, The Old South Meeting House, Salem Harbor(from which the first American Missionaries embarked) and Plymouth Plantation (a re-enactment of the Plymouth Colony circa 1627).

Don't forget to get a taste of Italy by stopping by the North End, try some real Clam Chowdah, or to catch a Red Sox game while you are here! A great way to see a large chunk of the city in a short amount of time is by taking a Duck Tour.
