Item Description

From swan boats to famous residents and delicious stops along the way this is the ultimate Boston package for the family.  Whether you are new to the city, a tourist, or a long time Bostonian there is no better way to get to know the city of Paul Revere, Tea Partys, and The Boston Red Sox.

Start your day with four tickets for a tour with Boston by Foot will show you that Boston is a walking town!  With over 200 docents, Boston By Foot offers the greatest variety of walking tours in Boston. These tours are researched and written by the volunteer guides who donate their unique interests, specialties and time to this program for the sole purpose of sharing their passion for Boston's history, architecture and culture.  A great opportunity to get a classic overview of the city or a more focused look at one of Boston's unique neighborhoods.

Then go experience a springtime essential with four passes to the Swan Boats. For over 130 years have acted as a welcome sign of Spring, they grace the waters of the Boston Public Garden, the first botanical garden in the United States. Famed in the stories Make Way for Ducklings and The Trumpet of the Swan, the Swan Boats are the only boats of their kind in the world.

Head to Picco in the South End for lunch where everything is homemade including their unbeatable pizzas.  Besides the perfect pies, Picco also serves creative salads, over-stuffed sandwiches, and mouth-watering desserts like Chocolate Souffle or Fire Roasted Apple Tart.  But for the ultimate sweet tooth satisfaction everybody at Picco screams for ice cream.

With elections in the air, take a visit to The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum dedicated to the memory of our nation's thirty-fifth president and to all those who through the art of politics seek a new and better world.  The Museum portrays the life, leadership, and legacy of President Kennedy, conveys his enthusiasm for politics and public service, and illustrates the nature of the office of the President.

After your busy day around town, settle in to another Boston landmark overlooking Boston harbor.  Anthony's Pier 4 has the freshest seafood, delectable prime steaks, and succulent Maine lobsters, there is something the whole family is sure to enjoy!
