X2 on the suggestion of GeoCaching!
What fun it is to get to use maps (and a GPS unit) to get to look for hidden treasures and then to be able to leave something for the next people!
There are geocaches EVERYWHERE urban and the countryside!
You can use the website, or an Apple app or a Android SmartPhone app;
GeoCaching.com
Or use other websites!
Fascinating and ultimately educational stuff and a 12 year old boys interest would probably be piqued!
There is also a GeoCaching type activity called CHALLENGES:

This also sounds fun to do on any vacation!

Geocaching Challenges turn every location into an adventure. Go somewhere, do something. That’s the basic idea behind Geocaching Challenges. You might be challenged to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, sing a song in the middle of Times Square, or take a picture of yourself walking through the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Are you up for it?
