Lived there for a few years, go see the red socks and do the bars pre game. Trip out to harvard is decent and good bars and restaurants round there. North end great for grub. If the celtics or bruins are playing its also good craic as are the pubs round there

Where is the best place to go scooping?

Would South Boston be the main spot - details - I need details!

Lived over there myself for a while, just take in all in the usual spots like Fanuiel Hall, Quincy Market, Fenway and the likes. Wouldn't bother with majority of South Boston. Around Boylston great area for bars and as said above Harvard not bad but very hipster. Would also recommend the walking tours. Pretty easy city to stroll about.

Lived there for a few years 20 years ago at this stage, walking tour is with a few hours, you an do it yourself, it's marked out very well, the Freedom Trail https://freetoursbyfoot.com/the-freedom-trail/

As a sports fan Red Sox and Fenway is the must do, great little stadium. Any of the bars on Landsdowne Street are great for pre game drinking

The Black Rose is a good spot. The tours are great, very walk able city. Dorchester and South Boston I'd avoid.
