So, is it time for that anniversary or birthday? Maybe you are wrecking your brain trying to decide what to get for that fancy person in your life who seems to just have everything already! How about getting rid of the idea of yet another diamond bracelet or set of golf clubs and going for a gift experience?

This time around, give that person the gift of an unforgettable experience that they have always wanted to experience but never had the chance to. If you live in Boston or that special person loves the city then you are in luck because Boston experiences are sure to provide the best moments!

Why Gift Experiences Are Better Than Material Gifts

Let’s face it: buying a fancy sweater or jewellery does not necessarily require thought. It is a typical gift anyone can get, and well, everyone does. A gift experience, on the other hand, is a whole different ball game, and here is why:

• Moments and memories vs. stuff: When you gift some experience, you give that person a moment they will remember for a lifetime, not stuff that will collect dust in the attic or be forgotten on a shelf.
• The connection: Gift experiences can be experienced together, thus creating some epic bonding moments that will connect you for a lifetime.
• Tailor-made: When considering an experience gift, you think about what the person likes and give the person their version of the perfect day. Carefully curate the ideal date or vacation with experiences they are sure to enjoy.
• Personal: Want to show that special loved one that you know them inside and out and you listen, then give them an experience gift. Did they mention some obscure activity once, like a balloon ride? Then surprise them and give them an adventure of a lifetime while showing you know them.

Why Boston is the Perfect Place for Gift Experiences

Nothing says history, culture, and old money like Boston. Boston is a city chock full of the finest museums, theatres, and galleries around. A state that quite literally helped form the United States as we know it today. Thus making it the place to just have some great experiences for a history buff or a lover of the finer arts.
Unforgettable Boston Gift Experiences

Private Whale Watching Tour

Say that the giftee loves marine life, a whale-watching tour would be the way to go. Even if they don’t necessarily love marine life, seeing a whale in real life is still really impressive.

Gourmet Chocolate-Making Class

There is nothing more romantic or dare we say sexier than making gourmet chocolate. Making this a perfect gift for something like an adversary. Or maybe that special person loves chocolate, so this is the ideal excursion to gift them. And there’s something to be said about eating chocolate that you made yourself — a very “Willy Wonka” experience for the foodie.
