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.

Head out on a Boston Lobster Tour to fish for lobster and learn about the Boston Harbor. Along with a narrated history of the area, you'll get to see lobsters, sea urchins, star fish, and crabs up close. Bring your camera because your trip on the water offers some pretty great views of the city.

Sure, New York City and Hollywood are where the movies are made, but Boston has been the production spot of quite a few films. Let the people at On Location Tours take you on an excursion that shows off the spots in Beantown where movie magic has been made. Highlights include seeing the original Cheers bar and the park bench from Good Will Hunting.

Experience an excursion in Harvard Square, a commercial and recreational center for Harvard students, city residents and visitors. Along with being a hub for arts and entertainment, and home to a number of attractions, shops, eateries, and places to stay, The Square is also a historically significant location. It was here that George Washington took command of the Continental Army, it is where the first printing press in America was located, and it has also been the grounds for many student protests – among many, many other things.
