Boston friends: as the weather gets nicer and nice

Boston friends: as the weather gets nicer and nicer, it's time to start planning those day trips!

Growing up just outside of the city, I like to think I have perfected the art of day trips from Boston. Some of my favorite memories are driving up to Rockport and spending the day near the water, or popping over to Hingham to embrace the suburban coastal town vibe.

Do you have a favorite day trip to take from Boston? Let us know in the comments! - Sara

It's timeless, gorgeous and ready for you to see! Niagara Falls is a place I grew up visiting, and one I hope to bring my daughter to in the near future. A couple summers ago we went for a quick trip to the falls from Buffalo and had a blast. Here's some updated tips and guides on what to do! 🌊

Find the link to the article below, or simply visit the Pure Wander homepage to find our post on Niagara Falls!
