Highlights of New England

After getting your bearings in Boston, you’ll pick up your rental car and head north through some of New England’s most historic and scenic states. From Maine and Massachusetts to New Hampshire and Vermont, this is where salty seaside villages and cosy mountain towns invite you to stop for the night and soak it all in. There’s no end of colonial mansions and seafaring heritage to admire with artists’ workshops and maritime museums adding to the rich blend of freedom and discovery. Throw in some optional whale watching trips, seafood suppers and hikes in Acadia National Park, and you’ve got all the makings of an epic road trip. Self-drive is the most flexible and affordable way to experience New England’s highlights without having to stick to a strict group schedule. If this is the type of road trip that you’ve always wanted to do but never quite got round to, well, here’s your chance.
