Hey all, I'm headed to Boston, next Saturday for a few days, then a day in Salem (to see the witches)
Has anyone been to Boston?
Any tips on what not to miss?

Going to Boston, any tips?
- Thread starter bbradk
- Start date
quincy market in the downtown area is a don't miss, full of pubs and restaurants although it is much better in summer during patio season. also take a walk by fenway, go over to cambridge and see the harvard and mit campuses, and brookline where jfk was born. downtown boston is really nice, especially the colonial part. there is a "freedom trail" (i think its called) that links many historic revolutionary sites. if you're a history buff. You're kind of between seasons sports wise, since redsox are in playoffs, and bruins and celtics haven't started yet.
Boston is a little confusing to drive in so watch out. also not sure if they're finished the so-called "big-dig" project (burying the I-90 freeway). otherwise, have fun.

"Don't drive downtown. The roads and drivers are a disaster."
I agree!
And yes fresh yummy sea food.

DO NOT drive in downtown Boston - you will be frustrated. It is a place that you can walk around downtown and not have to walk for every to get anyplace.
Good restaurants? Ye Olde Oyster House is one of the best seafood places in town. It is one of the places that JFK used to have a permanent table.
I have stayed at The Copley Square Hotel which is not too bad.
If you have time, take a drive to Cape Cod to the south or Cape Anne in the north (north of Salem).

Wow, thank you all so much for giving so much great advice!!!
This should be a fun trip, luckily I'm not driving, just do the cab thing.
As for seafood, I don't know if it can get as good as Newfoundland, I was there in June, and it was incredible.
I'm not going to be at any boutique hotel, the prices are crazy!!! found a place in Charlestown for 80.00 us a night called the constitution.
Again thank you to all for the valuable advice.

From Toronto? Drive to Buffalo, get on the NY Thruway East and follow the signs to Mass. and Boston...
Great city -- but too bad you can no longer see a game at the "Gahden".
Enjoy !!
For SPs, the best advice is to check out www.eros-boston.com and go with the visiting escorts. The Boston scene is pathetic and expensive. You're best bet is a SP thats visiting Boston as part of a tour from like Miami Companions or something like that.
As for MPs, forget about it in Boston. Crap, all crap. If you want anything half decent you'll have to drive to Conneticut or Rhode Island for an AMP.
