Even though traveling with your friends, family, and loved ones can be incredibly enjoyable, you can still have an equally amazing time exploring a new environment on your own. If you’re traveling solo for the first time this holiday season, you’re likely wondering what you can do to occupy your time while making the most of the city you’re in. Take a look at our brief list of solo travel activities
Spa Day
Yes, a spa day can be fantastic with a partner or a friend, but there is nothing like dedicating a whole day of traveling to luxurious self-care and pampering. In Boston, there are plenty of high-end spas you can visit for a few hours of R&R. Indulge in a Swedish massage to relieve your muscles of the stress of traveling; get a facial to quell the effects of “airplane air”; receive a mani-pedi with holiday colors to stay in the seasonal spirit. There are an abundance of ways you can take advantage of local spas and create a day you’ll remember long after you leave the city.
Go To a Concert
Who says you need a concert buddy to have a good time? When visiting a new place, you’ll often be exposed to different types of music and subcultures you’re not too familiar with. Boston and the surrounding areas have a huge music scene, and venues like The Sinclair, the Royale, and Big Night Live routinely host shows throughout the week that are lively and enjoyable for every taste. Purchase a ticket and experience all the immersive tunes Boston has to offer!
See A Sports Game
You’ll never really know a city unless you’ve been to a home game for one of their sports teams. Boston is home to some of the most talented and successful sports teams out there, like the Celtics and the Bruins. Better yet, events like these are the perfect spaces for making some new friends! You may even make it on the Jumbotron if you’re lucky.
Join a Cooking Class
If you’re a certified foodie, traveling can be a totally delicious endeavor. Joining a cooking class allows you to enjoy the flavors of a new place while getting hands-on experience crafting the local cuisine. Boston is a melting pot of different cultures, which means you can learn how to craft Italian food, Mexican dishes, and even Haitian or Cape Verdean cuisine. Checking out websites like Eventbrite and Groupon can lead you to a ton of local cooking classes where you can pick up lifelong skills you’ll impress your family back home with.
