If you are in Boston or passing through the backroads of New England on a multi day journey, we implore you to stop for a moment to explore the hidden gems along the North Shore. As they say, there is a story at every mile.
Whether you are exploring through the lens of maritime heritage, indigenous culture or eager to take advantage of the culinary and art scenes, this region has an abundance of offerings. Together with tight knit communities of historians, environmentalists, and small business owners, we love to work with these New Englanders to tell their rich stories and share their passion with global visitors.
While we are sharing this full day itinerary idea with you, we welcome you to dive a bit deeper to enjoy well appointed accommodations and turn this into a multi day excursion. Wolfe Tours thrives in creating unique itineraries that are customized for your group preferences.
