Mystery, comedy and action all come together during a performance of Shear Madness. This “whodunit” mystery incorporates suspense and improvisational humor, and this combination has earned the show plenty of praise; the Boston Globe has named it “Best Comedy of the Year” seven times. Shear Madness holds the Guiness World Record for being the longest running play in the U.S.
Watch the opening battle of the American Revolution take place right before your eyes at Minute Man National Historical Park. This hallowed ground is where the war began and where it is relived through reenactments.

During the appropriate seasons, skiing and hunting are allowed as well.
See the city from its streets and from the water with Boston Duck Tours.

All the while, you'll have a tour guide telling you all about everything you're seeing.
