Besides operating Boston's four subway train lines, the MBTA operates 13 suburban Commuter Rail lines, five boat routes, and 170 bus routes serving 175 cities and towns in 3,244 square miles of eastern Massachusetts.

 

Boston Subways
The four underground train lines and one limited-access bus line of "the T" (the MBTA rapid transit system) are useful to visitors, and at a fare of $1.25 for most rides, something of a bargain. More...

Commuter Rail
MBTA Commuter Rail trains take you on suburban excursions to Concord, Salem, Gloucester, Rockport, Plymouth, Worcester, Providence RI (Attleboro-Stoughton Line) and several other interesting places. More...

City & Suburban Buses
The MBTA operates Boston's city buses, and also 170 bus routes that connect the center of Boston with many suburban towns.

Boats
Most of the MBTA boat routes are for commuters, but visitors may find useful the boats running from Long Wharf (Boston Marriott Hotel) to the Charlestown Navy Yard (USS Constitution, "Old Ironsides"), to Logan Airport, and to the Boston Harbor Islands.
