Attaché you guys shou l d come to Guangzhou in China，great city and a perfect combination of history and modern metropolitan.

[@deadforever]

Boston is the most European feeling city I've been to in the US (and that makes perfect sense for obvious reasons). Love it. If it wasn't so expensive maybe I'd want to live there too .

[@emilkagorski5915]

Taking the Silver Line shuttle from the airport to South Station is free! Very important detail that seemed to have been left out.

[@NIKSTERDXB]

this travel channel is so underrated . Thanks for the brilliant tips .

[@attachetravel]

+Nikkhil Malhotra Thank you very much...tell your friends! ;-)

[@Tim_Raths]

Going to Boston in April (2020) and can't wait to go. This video was very helpful.

[@Artattack1987]

As a Bostonian this was the first video that drew me to your channel. I have to say I love your videos and think you guys deserve way more attention. It's so interesting to see local and distant cities from a tourist point of view. I've been a subscriber and avid consumer of new content ever since. Keep up the great work! You guys are awesome.

[@abbyjoyce8610]

Absolutely love these travel guides all the critical info delivered with great personality (and no usual self indulgent you tubbing in sight!). We watched all the ones for the US before we left Australia and we've used them again as a little intro into each city. Would be great to hear more about nightlife and some cool activities. You should definitely do a show in Melbourne Australia! Thanks again 😊

[@Thewoldster]

Thanks for doing the AMA yesterday! Enjoyed the read. Another great video too.

[@attachetravel]

+Thewoldster no problem, thanks for watching!

[@johnnesbitt688]

This the only travel guide I watch. Keep up the great work lads.

[@stationshelter]

There's a dunkin donuts every 100 yards in New England.

[@bigoofinthechat5496]

yep

[@vancegodin4149]

"da duknkie"... a co-worker there called them.

[@Beckala67]

Dunks is what they call them at ZooMass Amherst.

[@ronhanisco8697]

LOL

[@PaulR1355]

Love your episodes, I was wondering why you didn’t talk about surrounding areas of Boston such as Cambridge? Harvard, etc. while it’s not the center of Boston it’s so close that most travelers would venture out. Thanks guys!

[@rebeccaabdon1948]

Barking Crab was my favorite part of my visit to Boston last summer!

[@jessielucky5530]

Why I feel so excited when watching your video?

[@smithereens388]

So happy to find out you made a video on Boston, seriously considering moving there!

[@NeptuneC]

The song in the beginning reminded me of The Departed, such a fantastic movie

[@viboronne]

Helped me a lot, im travelling to Boston on May from Argentina. Im still struggling with tipping system, to tell you the truth. Well, hope to see you guys visiting Buenos Aires, im sure our food will BLOW-YOUR-MIND!

[@attachetravel]

+Lucas Villar I'm excited to head to Argentina!

[@kookymunster75]

I am so glad I found your video! I'll be going in 2 months and I've never been. This video has been most helpful!

[@markprobets483]

Really enjoy your travel guides.. Spot on. I'm from London and have visited many of the cities on your guide channel and it's always entertaining and informative. I'll be visiting Boston with a friend in May.. Thanks again...

[@aps-pictures9335]

Hah the humour is much appreciated, great vid as always Attache team!

[@philbuarque]

Dude, you're the best travel channel.

[@peterjharnden]

Brilliant! Thanks for all the really useful and interesting information

[@TatuNerd]

You're back man. Congrats for the channel. Keep doing a good job.

[@attachetravel]

+Artur Rossi Thanks!

[@colefayemi573]

Great video as always. I was surprised seeing that you did Boston since it is my hometown. Keep up the good work!

[@attachetravel]

+Cole Fayemi Thanks!

[@kaseywaggoner5487]

Great video as usual. Keep up the good work!

[@attachetravel]

+Kasey Waggoner Thank you!

[@TravelClast]

nailed it again ... great picks in boston!

[@nashrougvie3691]

visit the suburbs. The Boston area is unique because of the way it developed, which is different from other parts of America. A lot of the suburbs developed at the same time as Boston, as opposed to developing as a result of Boston. this means that A lot of these surrounding cities have their own very unique culture and can be just as fun to explore as Boston. They are cheaper too, because they aren't as big as Boston. you can take the commuter rail to visit some of these places. I'd recommend: From South Station, Plymouth (Plymouth line), Quincy (Plymouth/ Kingston Line, as well as Braintree- bound red line trains) and from North Station: Salem (Rockport/ Newburyport line), Gloucester (Rockport line), and Newburyport (Newburyport Line). All of these places have a really vibrant restaurant scene and rich history. fares are about $10 per person on the commuter rail, and all of the cities are pretty walkable.

[@joshbucton2475]

Very useful information, thank you.

[@Alecostauk]

I'll be visiting Boston in April. I'll take your advice.

[@BloggerMusicMan]

I completely second that. Even Cambridge and Sommerville have so much to offer (though Salem is also amazing). The neat thing about Boston is that you can walk (yes, walk) from MIT in Cambridge to the north shore of Boston in about a half-hour. It's an extremely walkable area.

[@jw5481]

The roti canai is just the tip of the iceberg at Penang. The satay and coconut rice are also amazing

[@JohnWayne-po9ij]

Very nice video Thank you for making such good content

[@ronhanisco8697]

I am an ironworker in Boston and I rebuilt the SCJ. Also built the new Liberty hotel behind the jail. Proud of that. It was very challenging, but we got it done. Now I can't afford to eat there. LOL

[@jgr8210]

See you in August!!

[@de.aleksiutin4787]

Thank You for that video) Really helpful and interesting!

[@shubhampipada3130]

[@doctorwhofan290]

Hey +Attaché ! Fancy doing a vid on Geneva soon. I just got back and I'm feeling strong nostalgia for the beautiful city

[@attachetravel]

+doctorwhofan290 that's definitely on the list!

[@Chris_Listenfelt1401]

Avoid driving in Boston at ALL COSTS!!! The T is by far the best and most convenient way to get around

[@ronhanisco8697]

If you don't drive there every day, you will die. LOL

[@sunnyplace729]

Thanks for this video! We used your advice and took the Silver to South Station, then got the T right to our hotel. We mostly walked after that. We also booked Sunday brunch at Stephanie's on Newbury based on your recommendation, and didn't regret it. Of course, since I'm originally from the East Coast, Dunkin Donuts was a daily stop.(regular has always meant "with cream and sugar" to me!) My only regret is not getting to Clink for a drink. Next time.

[@lizziapple9867]

Damn why couldnt you post this 2 weeks ago when I went and cluelessly wandered around! haha

[@rckymusic]

You live you learn..lol

[@notthegoatseguy]

I had a day to spare in Boston and my tip would be to WALK! I took the commuter train in from Plymouth and didn't use the subway at all. It is such a dense, neatly packed city that you are just going to love walking. And public bike share stations are everywhere in the downtown area.

[@rckymusic]

Thanks for the video. Really informative

[@kitimbomaurine7477]

Nice guide good for a tourist

[@rickwest2341]

lived in Boston, work in the Seaport district (Summer St) for 50 years, never heard of that brewery

[@danielcunliffe1177]

[@attachetravel]

Thanks Daniel!

[@TheCrazyDcoolest]

Can't wait for that Portland episode. Hipster city USA.

[@GreenGaslight]

The airport info at the start of the videos is super handy! Just found your channel but going to watch loads of these tonight on the TV :)

[@yourefired807]

Hopefully you all made a New York travel guide to while you were up there ! :)

[@amretjeetsingh2736]

[@andrzejlisowski5482]

Great job! Lovely video. I would suggest to make a video on Kraków in Poland which with 12,5 mln tourists in 2016 quickly moved to the first league of the tourist destinations in Europe.

[@carrefamily01]

Great video of Boston. Good people, good beer.

[@LtNduati]

Native New Englander/Mid-Atlantic person, and longtime Attache viewer, usually always use Attache videos as the underpinning of my strategic plan just before departure and in long-term location research. Probably the best macro review of locations anywhere on the internet, and reat for final prep prior to arrival. I moved to Boston in March 2022. A lot of this video still holds up quite well. A few updates to note as of August 2022 include. 1. Uber is ubiquitous and taxi's are nearly nonexistent. I am a junior executive at a large Boston nonprofit, and handle travel frequently for the Executive team, in addition to my own work travel which has really ramped up since May 2022, and is only accelerating since then. Taxi's are usually cheaper in off-times (think eaarly morning, and late evening), but Ubers are cheaper at every other time. 2. Logan still has terrible parking and woeful connectivity to Downtown, despite being in downtown Boston. It also has very limited restaurants, and all are pricey. 3. Boston is pricey, everything costs something, it doesn't even matter. Ubering from the outskirts (Brighton/Cambridge/Newton) is costly. Typical fare from Brighton to Logan is around $40/$50 in 2022 dollars. 4. the MBTA (aka the 'T') really fell off since the pandemic. the Green and Orange line are closed until Oct. 2022, and have had ludacris mishaps and failures since 2020. Trains with conductors still on-board have run away (brake failures) on multiple occasions since 2022 began. Orange line subways/trains and a few buses in depots have caught fire for no apparent reason. Moral of point 4, do not, under any circumstance rely on theT to be an option nor to deliver. It is cheap, but when it often goes wrong,alternative options are astronomically expensive. 5. Boston is absolutely not worth visiting if not on business travel or on a long layover. It will cost a fortune, there's about three days worth of things to do, see, or eat, and the traffic is horrendous so only plan one to three trips per day if relying on uber, lyft, or taxi. Public transport is mostly busses and still subject to traffic like all other cars. 6. Outside of DC, Boston is probably the next best long layover destination if continuing on to somewhere else. Logan is in the middle of the city, and via car/uber/taxi/lyft extremely close. On a day or so long layover, the pricey nature isn't really a factor, and there is enough to do near downtown and near Logan that it's not too difficult to leave, explore, and then return for your next segment

[@itsavgbltpta]

Cool stuff! I love your guys' style. :) And I definitely think you should take a trip to Chicago!

[@attachetravel]

[@Jimbodisfan]

I'm from NJ near Philadelphia and Boston is one of my favorite cities to visit. Please do a video on Philadelphia, if you haven't already.

[@KateLove21]

Visit the Mapparium (a huge inverted 1930s glass globe that you walk inside.) And the Ether Dome at Massachusetts General Hospital ... a surgery theater where the first use of ether was demonstrated. They have a mummy and a human skeleton in there too. Two really neat and somewhat obscure places.

[@Harish]

Love these videos! Toronto travel guide please.

[@attachetravel]

+Harish Nandan Thanks! Toronto is definitely on the list.

[@jaydiz-cm8zi]

I wish you would come to my city, but seeing as Newark, NJ is way to close to NYC I guess I will need to be satisfied with the NYC Travel Guide when it comes out.

[@diabreucruz]

Do Lisbon, Portugal... and while you're at it, do Porto as well. :)

[@Danielscottza]

I think Cape Town would be awesome for a next adventure!

[@gryffith1378]

Nah Cape Town sucks and is extremely boring, it's basically a big retirement center, there's nothing to do there.

[@Danielscottza]

Might be boring, but it's still beautiful.

Unfortunately, I live in such a small village in Switzerland that it's not even worth to film there. But I live close to Basel and Zurich so I would really looking forward to see a video from a Swiss city. And to get to Switzerland, use SWISS Int. Air Lines; the best Airline in Europe! ;-)

[@shinesbrighter]

In Canada, we generally tip around what the tax amount was (13-15% depending on province), you can tip more, obviously. I oftentimes feel the need to tip higher in the US, as I hear the norm is 15-18%. It's a little annoying, but that's also partially because my CAD is worth so little at the moment 😬. Also, come visit Toronto!!

[@gryffith1378]

[@Yanevernoinoz]

Thanks for the advice on adding a tip to the bill and that it should be 15%. Question ..... how much should I tip for services who do not have a bill for example, a porter or bell boy? Thanks

[@notthegoatseguy]

15-20% (really should be 20. Boston has the second worst housing market in the US, right behind San Fran, which is currently the most expensive in the world) when you are at a sit-down restaurant where you are being served directly. I also add $2 per alcoholic drink (servers often have to tip out to a bartender) for the first drink, and $1 per drink after that per person. Be more generous if you are asking for a very special or specific cocktail or whatnot. Many of the more reasonably priced hotels won't even have a porter or bell boy. If you are staying at a 4-5 star hotel, I'd start at $5 and add a dollar per bag if it is more than a couple. Concierge: $5 the first time, $2-3 every use after. Maid: $5 per day at a moderately priced hotel. $10 if staying at 4-5 star. Leave a note on the pillow saying "For Service") Taxis (don't take taxis in Boston, they are very, very expensive) or rideshare: I'd stick with 10-15%. Rideshare (Uber, Lyft, etc...) really are underpaid when you break it all down. If my trip is $12 I'm definitely tipping $3. Cafes or really any restaurant where you order at a desk/counter and you grab the food yourself: There may or may not be a tip jar or a tip option for your credit card. You can leave a buck or two but aren't obligated to, but it does help the workers out. The good news is Boston has a great public transit system with buses, BRT, bike shares, commuter trains serving the metro area, and a subway for the city and nearby suburbs. And it is so walkable. you may never have to use a taxi, you can carry the bags yourself, and a concierge is nice and all but the Yelp app works on your phone.
