Or is there a better day trip to take within 2 hours of Boston?


The Cape really isn’t a day trip unless you take the ferry to P-Town. Rental car wouldn’t be needed. The exception being if you’re beer people, in which case there’s the Treehouse in Sandwich. But I’d send you to the one in Charlton anyway.

What time of year? What are you looking to do?

Edit: sorry just saw in a couple weeks so ignore the when question. But the what is still relevant.

Yeah, we'll be there the first week of October. Not sure I understand you're what question. What are we doing in Boston in general or what do we plan to do on our day trip?

The Boston trip was a last minute vacay we planned. Just going to chill, sight see, etc. We went for the first time in 2019, but I got food poisoning, so spent most of the time praying to the porcelain god.

As for the day trip, I just figured 5 full days in Boston a bit too long, so a day trip to see something else might be fun. We just want to go somewhere for the day to sight see. I went to Newport with my family when I was a small child and remember the mansions being pretty awesome. Wife has never been, so I gravitate toward Newport. The wife said something about Cape Cod b/c it's supposed to be really nice, but I don't know anything about Cape Cod or what there might be to see or do there for a day.

I don't drink, so breweries or other alcohol related stops not needed. Thanks Abita. I know you're the foremost authority on all thing Boston.

Treehouse is only 20 mins from the ferry in Plymouth tho.. could take the P&B down there and head to the cape from Plymouth, which is a cool town worth visiting too.
