Boston Getaway Roundtrip from Philadelphia
Independent roundtrip rail getaway to Boston from Philadelphia
Amtrak Vacations runs this three-day, two-night independent getaway roundtrip from Philadelphia to Boston on the Northeast Regional train, included in the Coach-class fare. Once in Boston, two nights at a hotel serve as a base for a hop-on-hop-off sightseeing tour, with time built in to explore at your own pace. The description points travelers toward the Freedom Trail, Newbury Street shopping, and dinner at one of Boston's seafood restaurants, all covered on your own rather than as a guided excursion. Because the operator does not publish a day-by-day itinerary or name the specific hotel for this package, exact timing of the sightseeing is left to the traveler. The trip suits independent travelers looking for a short, self-guided rail break rather than an escorted tour.
