[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

I visited Boston,Massachusetts last year for one week in October of 2023❤❤❤I visited some of these amazing places that is mentioned in this remarkable video in 2023❤❤❤

[@donbelenger817]

I would also recommend visiting the Boston public library, it is absolutely beautiful inside.

[@ohiorichkidbeats]

I'm finally at the stage of my life where I'm ready to be a TRAVEL MASTER🤙

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

Welcome to Boston,Massachusetts to shows these amazing places in the city one year ago in New England State in 2023❤❤❤

[@M1911jln]

I've lived near Boston for over 30 years. I've never heard anyone refer to the North End as "Little Italy". Yes, it is an Italian neighborhood with lots of great restaurants. But we just call it the North End, not Little Italy.

[@rcossenzo]

I love this city! ❤

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

Thanks you so much for this remarkable video about Boston,Massachusetts to shows these amazing places in New England one year ago in 2023❤❤❤

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Things I loved about living in Boston's Back Bay: 1: Newbury Street 2: Omni Parker House Hotel (the longest continuously operated hotel in America) Famous for creating Boston Cream Pie, Parker House Rolls, and coining the phrase "Schrod, as in "catch of the day".My mother told me that Schrod (with an H) was haddock, and Scrod (without the H) was cod. 3: Walking along the Comm Ave "mall." 4: The Charles River 5:Copley Square 6: The Boston Public Library. I'll think of more. BRB...

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Oh, I see. You're one of those internet A-Holes I hear so much about. @mericanmodi8479 🤣

[@lenam3618]

Beutiful Boston !!! And it's best places to visit Classic City, with a distinctive character and charming city !!!. The Gold City of New England and historic sites. Thank you so much for the invitation and tour ❤️ 💕 💗

[@Angelus13AOV]

I’ve always been fascinated by Boston and I’ve always wanted to visit with my family. I just need to figure out how much I should save up to visit with two adults and one child, as well as how many days we should devote to visiting to see everything and finding somewhere to stay for each night. It’s going to be an undertaking but we’ve never left our home state to explore the U.S, and I told my wife the first place I want to see is Boston.

[@ThePittsburghTraveler]

Boston is an outstanding foodie town! Seafood of course but the most outrageous pizza you will ever eat! Yes Boston pizza is better than Chicago pizza hands down!

[@BrinaSmith-qz9hj]

No 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

I agree! I really miss my Massachusetts pizza!

[@arammaleki]

Any specific pizza 🍕 places to go?

[@ThePittsburghTraveler]

Regina’s Pizzeria@@arammaleki

[@philiposbrooks3337]

Falled in love with Boston for watching this video almost unconscious

[@savannahcampbell1669]

Boston is a Good City

[@serenity4me2day]

Jeff, Great tour of Boston, another place I haven't experienced. Thanks 🛫

[@danielmaher7108]

Boston is really beautiful, and a fascinating place to visit. But in the winter it has the coldest weather I have ever experienced.

[@samibahig1702]

I love Boston !!!

[@stephenlight647]

One of the best things about Boston is that if you are reasonably healthy, it is an entirely walkable city. You can visit the Public Garden/Boston Common (next to each other), the North End and the USS Constitution entirely on foot. I could go on a long rant about the very brief nature of the video, but I appreciate the effort. One thing I have to mention is that is that the USS Constitution is unique not because it is the oldest ship afloat, but because it is the oldest COMMISSIONED ship. It is still on the active roll of the US Navy and is staffed by current US Navy crews.

[@kenb3552]

It's not the oldest ship afloat - that goes to HMS Victory in England which, unlike Old Ironside, is decommissioned - but it is still older than Old Ironsides as it was launched in 1765 and Old Ironsides in 1797. BTW - you will find many articles and statements on the internet claiming Old Ironsides to be the oldest vessel "afloat" - and these are just factually incorrect.

[@glass1258]

Thanks for the tour around my hometown 😊

[@TheGreatWasian_]

You’re so lucky to have Boston as your hometown

[@TamNguyen-lu9fd]

[@tamtamtamatim.4860]

Thank you from cambridge ma 🇱🇧 🇺🇲

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Cheers was not filmed there, however it WAS based on The Bull and Finch Pub. It's actually very different from the Cheers set. There was a restaurant that was Faneuil Hall adjacent that was a replica of the Cheers set. Many people from outside of Boston thought it was the actual Cheers.

[@willisapril]

On occasion they did film some exterior scenes outside the bar. Frasier was going to comit sucide, Where they meet John Kerry and mistake him for a news reporter, Cliff and Norm making Frasier's cae alarm going off, They meet the Kennedys and many more some of these are uploded on You Tube.

[@sanjibsarkar1081]

Very Nice City. Thank you so much.

[@TBgunsandbutter]

Boston, is the best 😊 but every time i am up in Mass. it's one of two routes from Logan International, and that's Ted Williams Tunnel to I93 South or Callahan Tunnel to Tremont Street to Columbus Avenue enroute to the Almighty Roxbury, Dorchester, Matapan, Jamaica Plains Empire

[@iteachmy3]

the GO city pass is a 2nd option for one price that includes lots of attraction admissions.

[@cortezmiller1899]

Boston is nice, wouldn’t mind visiting.

[@phillm156]

Whatever you do in Boston….it’s vastly easier and more enjoyable without a Car!

[@alexanderblack827]

Boston is known for Fenway Park, TD Garden, Southie, North End, Harvard University, Beacon Hill and Chinatown.

[@willisapril]

Are there any skinny people in Boston?! Food looks delicious 🤤. Haven’t been to Boston since 2001 but seeing this I can’t wait to get back again, great video 👍😊❤️

[@alexcantu2255]

Awesome video

[@bswill5077]

wow

[@michaelpelham9699]

For a day trip, going Plimouth Plantation, now called Pawtuxet, is very educational, fun and interesting. Have a list of questions about the Pilgrims and enjoy being part of the Pilgrim experience with historical characters. Also the Wampanoag village is attached to it. Great experience.

[@acidburnisive]

Wow looks great

[@shamlove0]

i need visit there

[@yesgonzalez223]

Thank you for all the detail very well put together. I will be making a trip in June and was wondering if you had any insight on whether or not Boston and most of its locations are dog friendly. Not talking service dog.

[@Sumera80]

Sir appreciate you. I like your videos about USA

[@ryangoldberg7721]

starting to plan for a vacation in Cohasset. Boston Massachusetts 2024 I'm seeing friends

[@TheHiredGun187]

@<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="0">0:00</a> Ok my familyline is from Boston, but I grew up in Key West,Florida and Jacksonville, FL thanks to the US Navy and my dad skills on rebuilding jet engines. I moved here in 2001. Let's see your Best Thing...compared to my best things. GO..GO Edit 1: Goto Saugus, MA and see Saugus Iron works open daily during the summer from 9am to 5pm. Hit Salem, MA and all the haunted things that go bump in the night. (Don't go near halloween...place is a mad house) But Salem, MA has the Bit Bar...a bar dedicated to old style video game cabinets. Really worth checking out...but parking in Salem, MA is a mess.

MIT and Harvard are located in the city of Cambridge

[@williammoore27]

Greetings from Atlanta! The Big Peach, the big city of the South!🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑

[@internalhappiness5238]

your not from Atlanta. If you were you'd know that Atlanta is small and doesn't claim metro areas like northern cities. You're not even Southern.

[@TheGreatWasian_]

⁠@@internalhappiness5238what the fuck are you talking about🤣metro areas are not just a thing that northern cities do. Even small cities in the south do that, like Greensboro for example. Atlanta does have a metro area btw and it has a population of over 6.4 million people.

[@taiboubatradecom]

❤ thanks to remember me this Nice city..i Love it ❤

[@jasongreggbaker9883]

I'll be there in 2 weeks

[@improperbostonian6722]

Welcome to America's History cradle. Best fried clams on the planet on Massachusetts north shore they come from salt water marshes. Boston still uses it's Gas Lamps from (1828) The Omni Parker House at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="848">14:08</a> is were Boston Cream Pie was created and is still served there since (1856)

[@bartel-shop]

I like it ;)

[@jilldawson89]

Go to Da Nang, Nha Trang, or Phu Quoc in Vietnam, and you can eat better lobsters, oysters, and other seafood that are more delicious at cheaper prices while you enjoy some breathtaking views of the beaches and surrounding areas.

[@chzaheerbabarwarraich4914]

Dear MS Hi,How is everything. Nice eating places, including lots of fresh sea food. Best Wishes and Profound Regards Ch Zaheer Babar Warraich Advocate.

[@beingkitschroeder2507]

Have you been to the Edgar Allen Poe house in Bay Village? My sister and I actually looked at an apartment there in the 80s.

[@urmom4816]

if you live in Bosten Dorchester i reccomend going to downtown boston its a really cool place its worth visiting i can tell you all about it i live here myself

[@michaelpelham9699]

Fairly good description. The Old North Church was shown briefly, but the historical significance was not mentioned. “One if by land, Two if by sea!” You should mention that a large part of Chinatown was actually the Combat Zone and what that was until about the 1990s Lol. And a short jaunt across the bridge to Cambridge would be very interesting, as well as a train ride to Quincy to visit John Adams’ house.

[@liamfrancis7132]

What is the island hopping tour called?

[@antoniomenjivar6556]

I hope to visit one day I like how old it is

[@PaulsWanderings]

The reason This Old House was always around New England is because it was produced by WGBH which is the public television station in Boston.

[@StevensIndifference]

I like going to modern pastry to get shot at. Then I like going to mass and cass to hit up the tents and score some dope.

[@Gianilamuelas]

[@rosea2350]

I’m moving to Boston from a small town in Texas. Big cities scare me but I hope to find some good book stores there, museums, and pizza. Any recommendations for those?

[@AndresGarcia-py7el]

Books: Brookline Booksmith, Harvard Bookstore, MIT PRESS Bookstore, Porter Square Books. Pizza: Regina’s, Frank Pepe, Many places in Northend (little Italy). Museum: I’ve only been to 1, but it was pretty amazing, Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum. Welcome to Boston!!

[@CrAzYnAdEz]

I can't help you regarding book stores. Unless you count libraries in which the Boston public library next to trinity church is pretty cool. For museums I personally like the museum of fine Arts and museum of science. For pizza the top 2 best are arguably most famous are Santarpio's in East Boston and Reginas in the north end.

[@kenb3552]

Brattle Street Bookstore - meet the proprietor, Ken Gloss, who you will often see appraising books on Antiques Road Show. It's going to be a big change - get used to everything being "old". :)

[@MarilynMorris]

What is the best way to get around Boston? Rent a car or Lyft/uber? We will be visiting in March.
