New York, Boston and the Best of New England 10 Days

New York, Boston and the Best of New England 10 Days

Visit the most European parts of the United States of America on an iconic journey from New York City through Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Maine. 

 

Stay in Manhattan for three nights and learn about the world's most fascinating and diverse city from our experts. You'll visit Brooklyn, Central Park, go to the Metropolitan Musuem of Art, see Times Square, the Statue of Liberty, go all the way to the top of the Empire State for the best views, see Little Italy and all the other special areas of this great city. Then we move onwards to Rhode Island and Massachussets where you'll explore the stories around the Boston Tea Party, Founding Fathers of the USA, Freemasons, and see all the historical places, including the Italian-American north end, where you have to sample a Mike's Pastry! A mixture of Irish, Polish, British, Italian and Portuguese cultures open up in front of you in the capital of New England. 

 

We'll get the chance to explore many parts of New England (including stunning coastline) that the Americans like to keep to themselves, for some reason Europeans are not aware of the beauties of Cape Cod and Maine. No longer the case, we're here to show you the best of this delightful seafront area.

    Detailed Itinerary:

    Fly into JFK International Airport or Newark International, Meet and Greet, transfer to your Manhattan Hotel. We'll do trips to Brooklyn, The Bronx, Harlem and the rest of Manhattan so you get to understand the many fascinating fascets of this incredible city. You're going to have a driver and guide on three of the four days. The rest of time you'll want to explore your own interests - the Guggenheim, the Met Musuem, the Museum of Modern Art, Greenwich Village, Chinatown, Little Italy, Central Park and some of the best restaurants and bars in the world. We like McSorleys but that's just personal choice. The Jewish delis, the Italian restaurants, the Irish bars, New York has it all. 

    Day 5

    Today we'll cross the George Washington Memorial Bridge over the Hudson and we'll go through New Jersey and Conneticut on our way north east to Rhode Island and Massachussets. It's less than four hours to Boston and we'll stop along the way for lunch. Today we'll check into the hotel and do a panoramic tour of Boston. There's a huge amount of history to get through here, it was one of the fist cities in America and its story is long and complex. Not to mention the fact that the city has the best colleges in the world - Harvard, Boston College, MIT etc. Boston is one of the most innovate cities in the world and you'll feel it. 

    Day 6

    This morning it's a walking tour of the historic Liberty Trail, see the North End (Italian), try some of the delicacies at Mike's Pastry, and then a visit to the JFK Library. 

    Day 7

    Today we head out for Cape Cod south east of the city and stop in Provincetown at the very tip. This place has been a refuge for hippies, artisits, chefs (Anthony Bourdain included), musicians and the gay community over time. It was originally a major fishing port and whilst still is still an important activity, most people come for the beautiful scenery, the historic buildings, the beaches and the food scene. We love it here, it's so relaxing and laid back. 

    We follow up with Hyannis Port and visit the JFK musem. If we're lucky we'll see the family homestead. Onwards to Plymouth and Salem for more history, and witches!

    Day 8

    Today we're off to the north east of Massachusetts and into Maine with Portsmouth and Ogunquit on the horizon. Today it's a chance to catch our breath and enjoy the shore, the sea and the great walks that these afford. Overnight in Ogonquit for two nights. 

    Day 9 

    Today is local exploring and a nature trail with a local specialist. 

    Day 10

    We head back down to Boston and flights leave from Boston Logan International Airport. We hope you've enjoyed the best of New England, the most historic and culturally complete area in the United States.
