There are few places quite like Provincetown. Wandering writers, fringe artists and adventurous nomads have transformed New England’s Cape into an oasis of colour, flamboyance and charisma, gradually becoming a freethinking haven for the LGBT community. The vivacity and expression exemplified in the mesmerising art galleries is only matched by the spirit and vigour reverberating through the clubs and bars that define Provincetown’s nightlife. The energy come nightfall is relentless, yet the town is always a hub of activity; Commercial Street is flooded with tourists and locals at all times of the day, all year round, tempting visitors into the brilliant galleries, sumptuous restaurants and boutique stores. Many stay for twice as long as they intended, just embracing the spectacle. Shopping and art steal the limelight in Provincetown, but the shoreline holds much of the town’s appeal. Race Point Beach and Herring Cove Beach are hugely popular, especially in the summer when the weather lends itself to a few hours underneath the afternoon sun. Hiking trails decorate the rural landscape for those who have a penchant for embarking on a leisurely stroll whilst admiring the idyllic views.
A bus service is the primary form for public transport, operating in the prominent areas around the town. It is also possible to walk around the town centre, which is especially enjoyable in the summer months.

Widely known as ‘Beantown’ after its proficiency in Baked Beans production, Boston is famed for the superb educational premises located in the city, including two of America’s most prestigious universities – M.I.T and Harvard. The large student population gives the town somewhat of an edgy, energetic vibe, and also contributes to the relatively diverse population. For those that have an active interest in history, there are also numerous museums around the city. Away from history and education, sports is a huge part of the city’s culture, with the Boston Red Sox being one of the most famous baseball teams in the world.
