Day 1
|
New York - New Haven - Newport - Plymouth - Boston:
|
Depart from NYC in the morning for the tree lined campus of Yale University. Stroll along the grounds of this centuries old ivy-league institution. After lunch, the tour continues to Mystic Aquarium, then you have chance to see the Belugas Whales. Then the tour continues to Newport in Rhode Island, crossing the famous Newport Bridge to visit the Breaker Mansion. At Breaker Mansion, visitors can experience the past wealth of America's Gilded Age. Built for Cornelius Vanderbilt, the 11-acre estate features entire rooms that were crafted in Europe and shipped to the building site, as well as prime examples of Renaissance art. Then we are heading to Plymouth, Many of us know at least a little it -- about how the Pilgrims left Europe on the Mayflower and landed at Plymouth Rock in December 1620. However, unless you really see it in person you could hardly believe how tiny The Mayflower (a replica) seems and how dangerous life was at the time. You will be more proud of the settlers' accomplishments.The tour arrives in Boston in the evening, where we will have the opportunity to visit downtown Boston and Quincy Market. Situated between Boston's financial district, the waterfront, North End, Government Center and Haymarket, the vibrant Quincy Market is one of Americaoldest gathering place. There will also be an opportunity to partake in Boston most famous export - the lobster - during dinner. |

We continue our tour of Boston in the morning by visiting the pristine campuses of Harvard and MIT, both world-class educational institutions. We will also visit prominent sites in Boston such as the State House, built between 1795 and 1797 on Beacon Hill overlooking the Boston Common, and recently featured in the major Hollywood film "The Departed" The tour will head to Mother Church and Trinity Church, both major centers for Christian faith in America and sites of powerful examples of religious architecture. There will also be an opportunity for an aquarlium tour, where you can view some of the world's most fascinating and magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. The tour returns to New York in the evening.

| This was my first experience with Go-to-Bus and it was.... incredible. Our tour guide, Barry, was very amiable, knowledgeable and reliable. He catered to all of our attention. I feel that if we would have done this trip on our own, we would have never been able to accomplish all that we accomplished seeing/visiting in two days. The tour was very organized and I feel very, very fortunately to have had Barry as our tour guide. My husband, sister and I are all looking forward to taking our next tour experience with Go-to-Bus. |
