Educational Field Trips in Boston

Our published Boston programs run from 2 days / 1 night up to 6 days / 5 nights, so Boston works as either a short regional trip or a full week. Length is not fixed, though — if none of the published programs fits your calendar, your Travel Consultant will build one that does.

Boston trips are anchored by the Freedom Trail and the Revolutionary-era meeting houses, and most groups add tours of the area’s renowned universities. Newport, Rhode Island and Salem, Massachusetts are common add-ons for groups with an extra day.

Yes. Every itinerary is built around your group, and our Travel Consultants customize the stops, pacing, and inclusions to your curriculum, grade level, dates, and budget. Planning is free until you decide to proceed with a trip.

Every Landmark trip is private to your group. No other group is merged with yours, the itinerary is entirely your own, and your Tour Director is assigned exclusively to you for the whole trip.

We prefer that trips are booked at least 60 days before departure. Shorter timelines are sometimes possible depending on what you are looking for, so it is always worth calling or emailing to ask.

A Landmark trip is quoted as a package: the private group tour, your custom itinerary, transportation, hotels, attractions, meals, and a professional Tour Director. Gratuities for your Landmark Tour Director, and for any step-on guides, are not included in the trip cost and should be budgeted for separately. Your Travel Consultant will walk you through exactly what your trip includes before you commit to anything.

Safety is our first priority. Students receive safety bracelets and a safety briefing at their first meeting with their Tour Director, groups move in chaperone groups or on the buddy system, and the group does not leave an attraction until two separate headcounts have been completed — one by a Tour Director and a final one by the head chaperone. Overnight security at the hotel is available on request.
