THE ENTIRE EAST COAST IN LESS THAN A WEEK? New York, Boston, Richmond, DC, Charleston, Savannah, St. Augustine, Atlanta, or Disneyworld in 6 days ... yes, I said 6 days ... It CAN be done! If you are like me, you want to see as much as you can in the shortest amount of time. Day 1 – Fly from wherever you are to Boston for the earliest start. Rent Car. Begin.
Now, if you somehow flew into Logan Airport, got the car, and took the duck tour by lunch, then you are in good shape. But if you had a long flight, relax! There is still plenty of time. Because the duck tour covered much of what we wanted to do, you really don’t need to be out of Boston until the late afternoon.
If it is not 3 PM yet, we have a bit more time … If it is 3 PM – start driving South! DON’T HAVE TO, BUT IF TIME PERMITS – I prefer to walk the Freedom Trail of Boston. (Click for full Freedom Trail Tour) For the exception of the USS Constitution, the Freedom Trail is very walkable with some of the attractions right next to each other. If you have an hour to spare, you may want to check out Old Ironsides herself, and get onto the boat. Boston, also has a great hands on Science Museum. You may want to check that out before going on the Ducktour, since it is near where you get your tickets. There is also a great Children’s Museum … but honestly, if you are doing this type of tour with a 5 year old, you are out of your mind.

MUST
SEE – If you are pressed for time, and of course we are (we have to be
in New Jersey by nightfall) you have to take the world famous
Ducktour. Tickets are 29 dollars, and you can get them at
Baseball
fan or not, you WANT TO SEE Fenway Park. If there is a day game, and
you somehow got tickets, then great job. But, even if the Sox are out
of town, then you can still take the Fenway Park tour. It’s only $8,
and you get to see more of the ballpark than you would if you paid
$300 with a ticket broker for a game. The tour will take you
throughout the different seats, including the Monster Seats! I have
taken this tour twice. Once, they brought us on the field to the
warning track. Another time, it was close to the gametime, so we
settled for the Monster Seats.
