ACCESSIBILITY IN BOSTON

ONE CHOICE WE CAN ALL AGREE ON?

BOSTON IN THE SUMMER

In Boston, our differences bring us together—literally. Here, music, food, sports, history, art, and the coastline cater to every conceivable summer itinerary. And it's all walkable. 

You can visit the world's oldest family-owned jazz club one night, take a sunset sail the next, and spend your days taking in the unique summer vibe of 23 neighborhoods. 

When it comes to summer vacations, we want different things - which makes Boston the one choice we can all agree on.
