For Boston, as touristy as the Duck Tours are, they give a nice overall perspective of the city and surrounding area, so that actually may be a good place to start, and hey, if you hate it, it's not that long! Lots of good museums, like the Museum of Science, and the Gardner museum. North End is full of good (italian) places to eat, and is conveniently close to the shopping in the fanuiel hall area. Which reminds me that the aquarium is also pretty good and close to that area. You could always go on one of the harbor cruises, or rent a car and go down to the Cape...
