YouTube Video Description

Before boarding the Majestic Princess in Boston, we spent 2 incredible days exploring Massachusetts! What started as a rainy morning in Boston turned into an unexpected pre-cruise road trip to Plymouth Rock and Cape Cod—and the sunshine followed us. On Day 2, Boston’s weather cleared up beautifully, so we hit the Freedom Trail, starting at Boston Common and walking the full 2.5 miles past historic sites. We toured the USS Constitution, enjoyed lunch at the famous Union Oyster House, and wrapped up the day at Bunker Hill before heading back to Boston Common. This pre-cruise adventure was the perfect way to kick off our Majestic Princess cruise—full of history, scenery, and a little spontaneity! 👉 Watch as we: Take a surprise road trip to Plymouth Rock & Cape Cod 🌊 Walk Boston’s Freedom Trail from start to finish 🇺🇸 Visit USS Constitution & Bunker Hill Monument ⚓ Dine at the historic Union Oyster House 🦪 💡 About Us We’re Tony & Christina—aka the Lido Hoppers!
