Biggest mistake to avoid in Boston
- Driving/Parking inside the city : Use a public transport but avoid driving inside the Boston city as you will waste a lot of time. Trust me, we made the same mistake. Boston city has this strict parking rule that after every two hours you have to change your parking spot. You cannot park in one spot for more than two hours during the day. Because of this, exploring the city became a bit tedious for us.

Watch this video to see my 2 days of Boston in 2 minutes. I came across three excellent musicians in front of Prudential Center performing so beautifully that standing in the middle of the bustling Boston listening to the live music felt like a vibrant scene from the movie of my travel life.
That’s all for Boston! Next on our ultimate New England road trip was the wonderful coastal drive of New Hampshire. Do let me know in the comment section below if you liked this straightforward itinerary for 48 hours in Boston.
