What's this trip about?

    Come explore the magnificent scenery, rich history, and iconic lighthouses on this coastal tour of New England. Visit six states, from New York to Maine, seeing both big cities and quaint towns, each with their own history and character. This coastal adventure begins in the exciting and diverse city of New York. Enjoy a guided sightseeing tour with highlights including the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Wall Street, and Central Park and then have time to explore the ‘Big Apple’ on your own. Stop in the delightful seaside town of Mystic, Connecticut on the way to Rhode Island, the smallest of the United States. Spend a day in Newport, the summer playground for America’s barons of industry during the Gilded Age and see the opulent mansions that were their summer homes. Continue north to Plymouth, Massachusetts, site of the first Pilgrim settlement in 1620 and historic Plymouth Rock. Travel to Provincetown, on the tip of Cape Cod, an old whaling port transformed into an eclectic, coastal resort full of art galleries and interesting shops. Experience Boston on a guided tour of all the must-see sights like Faneuil Hall and the Old North Church and then have time to walk the Freedom Trail or discover the North End, Boston’s oldest and most iconic immigrant neighborhood. Head up the coast to Maine and the seaside town of Portland with its cobblestone streets, scenic waterfront, and lobster fishermen. From the breathtaking ocean views, the big cities and charming small towns, the history and the lighthouses, this coastal trip to New England will provide memories for a lifetime!
