Boston isn't the old style city many people think of it as, it's a great mix of the old and new offering a variety of out of the ordinary activities which makes it a great vacation destination. Visiting I.M. Pei's John Hancock Tower or shopping the always chic Newbury Street offerings are phenomenal, but everybody does that and you demand something different. Here are a few hidden treasures in the Boston area.
Spectacle Island in Boston Harbor is a place nobody thinks of going when they visit but regret missing once they're gone. Hop on the ferry, do a little birdwatching, or just kick back and relax surrounded by unimaginable beauty. Pack a picnic and watch the busy city from afar while you lay back and relax.
If you like great food, Ten Tables restaurant on 597 Centre St. in Jamaica Plain should top your list. Ten Tables has just ten tables and ten menu options, but they are phenomenal options! Watch them cook before your eyes from the open kitchen a meal unlike you've ever had. You can eat and be treated like royalty for under $30.00 per person. For an out of the ordinary Boston area dining delight this is the elite choice.
See Boston in a unique way, try a Watson Adventures Scavenger Hunt. These are great fun for the whole family. Follow clues to locate amazing sites, having more fun than you imagined possible along the way. They offer fourteen different hunts you are bound to love. For a completely out of the ordinary way to see Boston and some off the beaten path sites, Watson Scavenger Hunts are the only way to go.
Make the most of Boston! See what's on the big map, but take the road less traveled too and try things nobody thinks of. You'll have more fun, and learn and see more about Boston if you do what is out of the ordinary on your visit.
