Boston Getaway
Independent three-day Boston city stay, rail booked separately
Amtrak Vacations sells this Boston Getaway as a two-night, three-day independent city stay, meant to be paired with rail travel booked separately. The package covers hotel accommodations in Boston and a hop-on-hop-off sightseeing tour that takes in the city's historical neighborhoods. The description points travelers toward the Public Gardens and Boston Common, shopping on Newbury Street, dining in the North End, and walking the Freedom Trail on their own time. Because the operator does not publish a day-by-day itinerary or name specific hotels for this package, the trip works best for independent travelers who are comfortable planning their own sightseeing schedule around a simple hotel-and-tour base.
