Top tips for your trip to Boston
Boston has four distinct seasons and can be colder than other places. Autumn, from September to November, is a popular season. It's when the trees change colour, making the perfect backdrop for a campervan in Boston. We wouldn't recommend visiting during the winter, as the snow and ice can make driving difficult. Summer is good; although it can get hot, it's perfect for exploring the coast.
- Driving in Boston
Some streets can be tricky, and the traffic can be bad, especially at peak hours. The best thing to do when you rent a campervan in Boston is to park outside of the city and take public transport into the city. You will likely be heading straight out of the city to the surrounding areas.
- Nature and outdoor activities
Boston is the perfect location to explore some of the great places in New England. The Charles River Reservation is ideal for getting on the water for kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding. The Blue Hills Reservation is only 15 miles outside the city, which is excellent for mountain biking or hiking.
- Family fun
In addition to all the outdoor activities in the area, plenty of other attractions entertain the children. Boston's Children's Museum is a great place to spend a few hours, with plenty of hands-on fun to take part in. If your children love animals, then the New England Aquarium makes a good day out.
Campervan offers for families in Boston
If you want to go on a family camping holiday in Boston, we recommend a large motorhome. Alcove models are very popular with families with children, as the motorhomes are spacious and have several sleeping and seating areas.
Best Campervan routes in Boston
Boston to the White Mountains
Hire a campervan in Boston and then drive the 180km to the white mountains - a great weekend adventure along the I-93 highway. The White Mountains are the perfect place to explore if you love the outdoors. The whole area is a campervan dream. There are hiking trails for all abilities, some amazing waterfalls, and plenty of wildlife. We recommend heading up to Mount Washington, the tallest peak in the northeastern US, where you can get up Mount Washington Auto Road.
Boston to Acadia National Park
Acadia National Park is about 450km away from Boston. It’s a fantastic drive along the coast for most of it. This gives you great views of the ocean and the chance to check out some of the coastal towns along the way. Our tip would be to break this trip over a few days and take your time. Two stops we recommend you call along the way are Portland, Maine, which is full of lovely old buildings. Camden in Maine is also worth calling, with its beautiful harbourfront and the fact that you could even hike up Mount Battie.
Boston to Niagara Falls
For a once-in-a-lifetime road trip, rent a motorhome in Boston and drive 750km along the I-90 to Niagra Falls, which is right on the border of New York and Canada. The drive is lovely and goes through some of the most scenic landscapes in Massachusetts. Along the way, stop at Albany or Syracuse for a break. Once you arrive, you could find a campsite near Lake Ontario. Overall, this route has something for everyone.
Sites of interest and excursions in Boston
Cape Cod
Cape Cod is only 100km away and could make the perfect place to head for if you only have the campervan for a short time. It’s not quite a road trip, but it's far enough away to feel like an adventure. Cap Cod was made for campervan adventures. It's a peninsular that extends into the Atlantic Ocean, full of seafood restaurants, lighthouses, and some great little villages. We recommend heading for Provincetown, right at the top, where you could book a whale-watching tour.

Boston has several toll roads, including the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90). Most tolls are collected electronically via E-ZPass, and many campervan rental companies provide a pass to simplify payment.
Several national and state parks near Boston, such as Acadia National Park in Maine and White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire, are perfect for campervan travel. Many of these parks have campgrounds that accommodate campervans.
You pick up your camper van for hire in Boston and travel to other states. There are no border checks between states, and most campervan rental agreements allow interstate travel. However, check if your rental insurance covers all the states you plan to visit and be aware of toll roads and varying driving laws in each state.
It’s highly recommended that you book campsites in advance, especially during peak seasons like summer and fall. Popular destinations near Boston, such as Cape Cod, the White Mountains, and Acadia National Park, often fill up quickly.
