Travel: Best Way From New York to Boston
“I loathe the bus. There has to be a more dignified means of transportation.” -Sixteen Candles What’s the best way to get from New York to Boston? It’s not the Delta Shuttle or Amtrak Acela. Forget about Fung Wah and Vamoose. The most fabulous, luxurious and yet relatively environmentally friendly way to get from the Big Apple to Beantown is… the bus. But not just any bus, it’s the LimoLiner. (Even Samantha Baker from Sixteen Candles would approve.)
I’m posting this from somewhere along the Mass Pike on a bus with 28 spacious seats, electrical power outlets, wifi, lunch and beverage service by a pleasant attendant, movies, magazines, uninterrupted cell service (and a cell-free area as well). You can select your seat in advance online, and you can book a 10 seat conference area in back for meeting before the big meeting. I never thought I’d say this, but… I love the bus.
LimoLiner.com $89 one way.

Departure and Arrival Poins: Hilton in Midtown NYC and Hilton in Boston’s Back Bay with optional stop in Framingham, MA.
N.B. If you’re traveling from the Framingham stop to the Babson Executive Conference Center (or back), Veterans Taxi was almost half the price of Wellesley Carriage (508. 653.5027). But if you’re on someone else’s dime or just don’t care, note you can charge Wellesley Carriage to your room at the conference center.
