Road trip the right way
The London Standard
|January 30, 2025
The tradition of the great American road trip is nearly as old as the relatively young nation itself, though the idea of which state to visit and which region to explore can be daunting. With its diverse landscapes and an array of charming towns and villages, Massachusetts is an ideal place to set out on a US road trip
-
Not only is the New England state readily accessible to visitors from the UK, but the ease of travel between regions allows you more time to explore the fascinating variety of histories and cultures you'll soon discover. Here's a curated guide to three of the most exciting and idyllic road trips in Massachusetts -the open road awaits.
Greater Boston and North of Boston
Culturally inclined travellers and avid history buffs should consider a road trip through Greater Boston and the north of Boston. Massachusetts is called the 'Spirit of America' for its defining role in the American Revolution, and road-trippers will have the opportunity to explore the nation's colonial history on their journey. Start your trip off in Boston and walk the Freedom Trail before heading out on the 30-minute drive north to Salem.
