wyofuncrusier Posted May 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hey all Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for day trips (tours) out of Boston to see the fall foliage. I know this something that my mom would like to do after our cruise in October. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted May 16, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Im assuming you wont have a car. I found this for you - http://www.viator.com/tours/Boston/Fall-Foliage-Sightseeing-Tour-from-Boston/d678-3978TOUR11?SSAID=333659&aid=463296857 Don't know anything about it but it sounds reasonable. If you rent a car, I can make other suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruckerDave Posted May 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Just be aware fall colors can be hit or miss. All depends on the weather. Peak viewing time can shift from one year to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jethrojam Posted May 21, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Very hit or miss, and you would want to be as far away from the city as possible You can rent a car from enterprise in south boston which will cost you about 15$ cab each way including tip. So including everything probably about 70 for the day and you can go wherever you want. My suggestion is to go to walden woods or blue hills if on a weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted May 21, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The Lexington/Concord area is near me and would be a good choice on Coumbus Day weekend. It will be busy, but the only totally crazy place would probably be Walden Pond. From South Boston or the airport it's a straight shot out the Mass Pike to route 128 and then anither 10 minutes north to route 2A which is the Battle Road. The national Park headquarters is here plus lots of places to stop and pull off. Downtown Concord and the North Bridge will be busy, but not totally unmanageable with some patience. There is also the Concord Museum, the Alcott House, Emerson House, and Thoreau Farm. If this is of interest, I can offer suggestions and strategies.
