Tour the highlights of America's east, from famous cities to scenic Appalachian forests and mountains, charming small-town flavour to wondrous Niagara Falls grandeur. Relive the rich history and experience the modern excitement and gentle beauty of this fascinating region.
Leaving the "Big Apple" behind, the first stop is the nation's capital, Washington, DC, and an evening tour of the illuminated monuments. The following day is free to explore the famous Smithsonian Museums, the Capitol Building, or even the White House itself.
Next, travel through the bear country region of Pennsylvania (home to continental America's densest concentration of bears) en route to the shores of Lake Ontario. Stand at the brink of Niagara Falls, before touring along the base of these thundering waters on the Maid of the Mist boat ride.
Then onto the rolling forests of the Berkshire Mountains in eastern Massachusetts, and finally, the historic city of Boston. Walk the Freedom Trail to relive some of America's revolutionary history, visit the town of Cambridge across the Charles River and stroll through Harvard Square, watch performers and musicians entertain the crowds at Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market, then relax on the lawns of Boston Commons before sampling the nightlife of this vibrant city. Finally, complete the journey with a return to the 'city that never sleeps', New York.
