Picture it. UNBELIEVABLE drives through the foliage, the imposing White Mountains of New Hampshire, Vermont’s Green Mountains (ablaze with color), the serene Adirondacks in New York, historic Plymouth, Mass, delicious lunch overlooking Cape Cod, a stroll in charming Lake Placid, Ten-Mile Drive in Newport, Rhode Island, fascinating history in Boston and so much more.
We have operated this tour for over 20 years. We know that you are on this tour to see the fall colors, and we know where to find them! This itinerary is timed to enjoy the foliage from almost every day on this tour (Boston and Plymouth turn a bit later). Temps are pleasant, fall is in the air and it is a GREAT time to be on THIS tour!
This one fills fast. Don’t wait!
A chance to visit ALL of the New England states plus upstate New York in the beauty of autumn
This is the perfect time to be in New England. We have operated this tour at this time for decades and have always enjoyed lovely fall colors in many parts of this interesting itinerary. But the tour is about much more than beautiful fall colors – the history and charm of New England – especially in October – make this a MUST on your bucket list.
October 5: This morning we’ll meet at the airport for our flight to Boston, Mass. Upon arrival, our comfortable motor coach will be waiting. Our bus is new, air-conditioned, restroom and DVD equipped with a great sound system. After checking into our hotel, we’ll enjoy a delicious dinner at Pulcari’s Italian Restaurant in Woburn. D
October 6: Today we’ll enjoy Boston, perhaps our country’s most interesting city. We’ll be met by a local guide this morning who will show us his historic hometown. We’ll begin in Lexington and Concord where the Revolutionary War began. It is spectacular any time, but in the fall the scene is magnificent. After lunch at Quincy Market (a delightful place to browse), we’ll see the city sights such as Paul Revere Home, Old Ironsides, the Old North Church and more. There’s just something special about Boston. That feeling is enhanced in the glory of the autumn foliage and the crisp fall feeling in the air. We’ll stay in the Boston area again tonight. B
October 7: Here we go! This morning we’ll head north on I-95 across the New Hampshire border to beautiful Wolfeboro, on the shores of scenic Lake Winnipesaukee. We’ll board the George Washington and enjoy lunch during our 75 minute cruise across the lake to Weirs Beach where our driver will meet us. We continue north into New Hampshire’s White Mountains. We’ll drive along a portion of the Kancamangus Highway which is a 45 minute stretch of incredible fall vistas. We’ll make several picture stops along the way including a perfect covered bridge, Rocky Scenic Gorge and a delightful stroll to Sabbaday Falls. On our way to the hotel, we’ll see the beautiful Mount Washington, Bretton Woods, Crawford Notch (dramatic scenery) and the Silver Plume Falls. The beauty in this area cannot be overstated. The combination of green pines and maples of every color against the granite of New Hampshire are our country’s most famous fall scenes – you’ll see why. Our hotel tonight is in Gorham at the Town and Country Inn in the midst of the White Mountains. We’ll have a four course meal at the resort which sits on a beautiful golf course surrounded by tree-covered hills. B, D
October 8: Today we continue our scenic journey. After a delicious New England-style breakfast, we will enjoy some of the most spectacular fall foliage of the tour (nature permitting). We will drive to the north making a stop in the town of Stark with its famous church and covered bridge. We’ll continue into Vermont and enjoy lunch in St. Johnsbury. We’ll also visit a fun maple syrup museum/gift store (and a surprise!). We’ll continue west and make a fun browsing stop at Cold Hollow Cider Mill outside of Montpelier. We’ll stay outside of Burlington, VT tonight. B, D
October 9: We continue to the shores of Lake Champlain and take a short ferry across the lake which will take us into the beautiful Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York. Our first stop is the famous Ausable Chasm, a deep gorge formed by the river. We’ll follow the scenic Ausable River toward Lake Placid where we’ll enjoy lunch and a chance for some browsing. Lake Placid is one of the region’s charming towns in a picturesque setting. If time and weather permits, we’ll ascend to the top of Whiteface Mountain for spectacular views. From Lake Placid, we’ll work our way south. Our drive today is one of the most scenic drives of the trip as we make our way through the vibrant color. Part of our journey takes along the shores of Lake George. The area is heavily wooded with different views around every turn. We’ll have a rest stop in the town of Lake George in a postcard setting. Our hotel is in Latham, New York. B
October 10: About an hour from our hotel is the delightful town of Stockbridge in the fabled Berkshire Hills. We’ll visit the Norman Rockwell Museum and spend some time seeing a renowned display of Americana. It contains the largest collection of Norman Rockwell paintings. Mr. Rockwell spent many years in Stockbridge. The museum is a highlight. We’ll then travel scenic highway 20 through Springfield into Old Sturbridge. This is classic New England. Old homes, town church, tree-covered streets and that “Old England” feel. We’ll have a late lunch (about 2:00) at the historic Publick House which was established during the Revolutionary War. The history and the food (served in period costumes) are unforgettable. We’ll take a late afternoon drive along scenic route 169 in northern Connecticut as we make our way in to our hotel, arriving at our hotel by 6:00. B, L
October 11: Welcome to Rhode Island! We’re one hour from Newport, where we’ll spend most of the morning. Newport has long been the favored vacation site of the rich and famous. A local guide will join us and show us the famous “Ten-Mile Drive”, which boasts exquisite estates from Newport’s memorable “Gilded Age”. After lunch, you can go through The Breakers, the most palatial of all the estates in Newport (once the seaside cottage of the Vanderbilts). We’ll then enjoy a one hour drive into Plymouth, Mass which is a great place to end our tour. You’ll have time to wander along Cape Cod and enjoy dinner on your own. B
October 12: We’ve enjoyed an incredible autumn experience to this point and we’ll finish the tour in style. We’ll show you the area with a local expert to show us the historical sites and more. Lunch is included at the Waterfront Grill overlooking Cape Cod. We then return to the airport for our flight home. We’ve completed our circle and created some lasting memories along the way. It will be an autumn to remember! B, L
