Boston cruise port Is it walkable?

 From Flynn cruise port it’s walkable but long and confusing. Here’s some suggestions 

Take the free SL2 bus when you leave the port building.  It is a 2 minute walk

to the stop. It is free from the ship to south station. Note it is not free on the way back. It’s $2.40 a ride.  

From south station it’s a 15 minute walk to Quincy market  on Altlantic ave or if you want same distance to Boston common going north on congress or Oliver street.

Shopping for souvenirs is everywhere but mostly in the Faneuil hall market. 

Regular stores are on Washington st.

I didn’t like that the water is now blocked by condos and hotels.  Columbus park still has the best views of the harbour.

Mikes pastry on Hanover street still has good but not great Cannolis.  They are $7 each and while still good, the one I had limoncello was not great.

So yes you can and will walk all over Boston, but take the free sl2 bus to save your steps for downtown Boston

Hope this helps
