Notes
This trolley wasn't really worth it. We probably would not have done this but we had the Go Boston Card and tickets for the 2-day trolley were included. Not recommended if you expect to hop on and off. OK for a tour around Boston but the Duck boats cover most of the route.

Long running interactive comedy murder mystery.

74 Warrenton St

Notes
We bought half price tickets for the show at the discount ticket office near Fanueil Hall. Stage 2 at the Charles Playhouse will probably seat 50 people but there was less than 20 there that night. It was a fun show and we laughed a lot.

We needed a small piece of luggage for the return trip home since we expected to be over the weight limit for a single bag. This place is crazy. I'm not a big shopper but you could easily spend several hours in this place. We found a small suitcase discounted to $20 bucks.
