On Day 2 board a Hop-on/ Hop-off Trolley tour to learn about the city’s historic sites and modern gems. Visit some of the highlights that are of most interest; perhaps a tour of America’s oldest commission warship, the USS Constitution, or a visit to the Mapparium, the world’s only stained-glass globe to see the world from the inside. Why not take the T to Cambridge or stroll around Harvard Square, stomping ground of students from Harvard University, MIT and more.

Lasting approximately 3.5 hours, a state of the art vessel whisks passengers to Stellwagon Bank National Marine Sanctuary.
