Secondo me può essere una buona base per visitare il resto della città. E' ben servita con i mezzi pubblici .

Sorry, just saw this. Hope you had a good time

I can’t really answer that, but there are good maps for the Metro and bus system!

Yes, the North End is very safe for travelers, very walkable and is the heart of the the historic sites in Boston. Your history geek will love it there! The Freedom Trail winds all through that area and the food is incredible!

As mentioned there is wide variety of places to dine, take a walk and check out menues.

I love the Harborside Inn, as it's a quick walk over there and a great location.

Sorry to be so late with this response, been traveling :-) If you're looking for a true "lobster bake" you won't find that at a restaurant. Those types of things need to be catered. There are lines most everywhere unless you choose to eat dinner at 5 pm, you'll be seated immediately.

There are several parking lots along the wharf by the north end which is a super easy walk to Quincy Market like lewis wharf and all are safe - any of the three are where I park and there are great restaurants and things to see along the greenway as you walk over to quincy market. There is also a parking garage across the street from The Bostonian Hotel and beside quincy market. Its expensive but you are right at quincy market.

First things first, if you are coming in from Logan Airport and know how to work subways, you do NOT have to pay a penny getting into Boston. Take the SL1 (Silver Line 1) airport shuttle from any arriving terminal to SOUTH STATION. There, the RED LINE will take you to any other colored subway line: FREE (you are already in the subway at that point). So, once into Boston for FREE, you're best option to see many things: take a trolley tour. Old Town or City Line; the former has two-hour tours, the latter one-hour tours. Both leave from the Long Wharf/Boston Aquarium that is only a 10-minute walk from South Station. Otherwise, if you want to walk and see the most, get yourself to Boston Common/Boston Public Garden area. If you want history, get on the "Freedom Trail," a 2 1/2 mile red brick line that will walk you to 16 different historical sites. If you want to go more contemporary (Boston Public Library, Commonwealth Mall, Newbury Street, Trinity Church), walk west on Comm Ave/Boylston St/Newbury St/Huntington Avenue. Simply put, west of Charles Street = contemporary Boston, east of Charles Street = historical Boston. Why? West of Charles Street did not exist until the 1800s. East, inclusive of Boston Common, Beacon Hill, etc., that is where Boston was way back in the pre- and post-Revolutionary War period. Welcome, and have fun....
