Boston is a city full of history and noteworthy sites.  Visit two of Boston’s beloved institutions with us – Boston Public Market & the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum.  The Boston Public Market is an indoor, year-round marketplace featuring about 30 New England artisans and food producers housed under one roof offering fresh foods, prepared meals, crafts, and specialty items. Visitors can find seasonal, locally sourced food from around New England, including fresh produce, meat and poultry, eggs, dairy, seafood, baked goods, specialty items, crafts, and prepared breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. Everything sold at the Market is produced or originates in New England.  Enjoy time to shop the market (bring your cooler!) and enjoy lunch on your own. 

Then spend the afternoon exploring the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum with an hour long docent tour of the galleries. Housed in a stunning 15th-century Venetian-style palace with three stories of galleries surrounding a sun filled interior courtyard, the Museum provides an unusual backdrop for the viewing of art. The mid-winter courtyard features masses of tropical and subtropical plants with many shades of green punctuated by abundant bright orchids. The Museum's preeminent collection contains more than 2,500 paintings, sculptures, and more. The galleries house works by some of the most recognized artists in the world, including Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Raphael, Manet, Degas and Sargent.
