Perched seven stories high, Rooftop at The Envoy is Boston’s most popular rooftop destination in Seaport; a skyline escape where sweeping harbor vistas meet a social-driven, elevated lounge. The Skyline View Bar pours craft cocktails, microbrews, and wines, letting guests toast under city lights or over the harbor’s glow. Cozy fire pits anchor lounge seating, offering warmth and ambiance as evening deepens. The Harbor Lounge delivers more intimate corners that feel private yet close to the action.
Para Maria brings globally inspired comfort food to the heart of Boston's Seaport. Helmed by Cuban-American Chef Tatiana Rosana, a Bar Rescue expert and two-time Chopped champion, the restaurant features three distinct dining experiences: the bar & lounge, the main dining room, and an energetic patio. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the menu surprises at every turn with favorites like Ahi Tuna Salad, Korean Chicken Wings, Lobster Mac & Cheese, and Sweet & Sour Salmon.
Link to Virtual Tour Boston is a playground for every generation, and The Envoy Hotel, Autograph Collection, located in the Seaport, puts the city’s most imaginative family experiences within easy reach. The itinerary practically writes itself: hands-on museums, waterfront adventures, and plenty of room to follow curiosity wherever it leads.
Just one block from the hotel, Boston Children’s Museum turns play into possibility across three floors of hands-on exhibits. Send bubbles soaring, experiment in the STEAM Lab, climb through a three-story sculpture, take the stage, or design something entirely new in the Art Lab. Every room gives curious minds another way to investigate, create, and discover together.
Some of Boston’s best views begin once you leave the shore. Cruise past historic landmarks and the city skyline aboard a narrated Historic Harbor Cruise, venture into Massachusetts Bay for the chance to spot whales in the wild, or brave Codzilla, a high-speed thrill ride packed with sharp turns, 360-degree spins, and plenty of splash-worthy moments.
Come face-to-fin with sea turtles, playful penguins, graceful rays, and thousands of colorful marine animals at the New England Aquarium. Climb the winding path around the four-story Giant Ocean Tank, get hands-on at the touch tank, and watch curious harbor seals at play. Set along Boston’s waterfront, it’s an easy outing that inspires wonder long after you’ve left the water’s edge.
From crackling lightning shows to hands-on engineering challenges and immersive planetarium experiences, the Museum of Science proves curiosity has no age limit. Whether your family loves robotics, dinosaurs, or visits to nearby galaxies, there’s always something new to investigate together.
Steps from The Envoy, Martin’s Park welcomes children of all abilities into an inclusive waterfront landscape built for movement and make-believe. Raise the flag aboard a play ship, wind through a timber maze, race down tunnel slides, cool off in the water garden, and strike a few notes at the interactive instruments tucked along the park’s paths.
At Museum of Ice Cream Boston, dessert becomes an immersive world of unapologetic fun. Move through interactive playscapes, pose for candy-colored family photos, leap into the famous Sprinkle Pool, and sample your way through as much ice cream as you can eat in 90 minutes.
Choose a driver name, assemble the family pit crew, and prepare for lights out. At F1 Arcade Boston, racers seven and older can settle into full-motion simulators and go wheel to wheel at their own difficulty levels. Live timing keeps the competition moving, while shareable plates and a dedicated kids’ menu fuel the post-race debate over who really earned the checkered flag.
Whether you’re lifelong Red Sox fans or experiencing Fenway Park for the first time, there’s nothing quite like game day in Boston. Cheer alongside generations of fans, grab a classic Fenway Frank, sing along during the seventh-inning stretch, and soak up the energy inside one of baseball’s most beloved ballparks.
Slow the pace and see Boston from a different perspective aboard the iconic Swan Boats in the Public Garden. For more than 140 years, families have glided across the lagoon aboard these pedal-powered boats, passing weeping willows, blooming gardens, and storybook scenery along the way. It’s one of those timeless Boston traditions that’s just as memorable for parents as it is for little ones.
