Boston Vacations
American history is alive and well in Boston. Massachusetts’ capital was founded by the Puritans in 1630. You’ll find that the city’s pivotal role in the American Revolution is still palpable as you walk along its two and a half mile Freedom Trail in downtown Boston. You can almost hear the hoof beats of Paul Revere’s horse clomping down the street.
