You can also travel west of Boston to discover Lexington, the home of the Minutemen and an important historic suburb in the New England area.
Another important destination for historic day trips out of Boston is Plymouth, the famous site where the first Pilgrims of the Mayflower landed on American soil, which now features a full size replica of the iconic vessel for visitors to explore. Your car rental can also take you to the region's famous fishing and whaling villages, including Nantucket and Woods Hole, which offer idyllic beaches. The town of Salem - now more well-known as the site of the infamous Witch Trials - also makes for an enjoyable day out, filled with historic 17th century houses and 19th century mansions.
