Answer 3

Well I know most places say you need to be 25, but the thing of that is, if you are under 25 they actually just charge you extra per day for added insurance. BUT, I don't know if that is only 21+ as well. Try Dollar Rental. They are most well known for being lienent with the under 25 thing at least, maybe they will also rent to someone who is 19. . . Another note though, you don't NEED a car at all in the city. Unless you plan on making day trips, like to other areas of the state or far outside Boston, you'll end up paying a HIGH rate for a crappy rental car, and then daily parking at your hotel and not using the car. Boston can be easily navigated with the train system, or walked. And taxis are easy to come by and not too expensive if you want to splurge for that for some trips. Even if you wanted to go somewhere like Cape Cod, etc there are bus lines. It might just save you money. . .Enjoy your trip!

Answer 4

Boston has a wealthy record and a diverse neighbourhood; it's a legacy of arts, tradition, and knowledge; Boston has something for anyone therefore find what Boston can offer you with hotelbye . The three-mile Freedom Trail brings you past - and into - 16 of the city's principal historic monuments and sites. It's simple to follow along with, by the line of red bricks in the sidewalk and by footprints at block crossings. The path may take you to Old Granary Burying Ground where Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, and John Hancock are buried; may get you to King's Chapel Burying Ground, the Boston's oldest cemetery; Old South Meeting House where in actuality the ringing speeches of patriots spawned the Boston Tea Party and the Old State House, Boston's oldest community creating and your website of the Boston Massacre.

Answer 5

Boston Duck tour is really great. Takes you all around city and the drivers are crazy. Plenty of museums to go to and don't forget the aquarium. Look in yellow pages and you may be able to find a billiard place. Bowling establishments sometimes have pool tables. It's there. Ask.
