Awash with colour and historical enlightenment, this autumnal journey promises a distinctive perspective of North America’s most spectacular season.
Overview
Immerse yourself in North America's autumnal splendour on shore and by sea, combining the grandeur of fall foliage with the charm of historic cities and picturesque landscapes. Commencing in Boston, the tour will follow in the footsteps of the Freedom Trail, and present opportunities to savour the fresh, local seafood and gain a bird's-eye perspective of the city from the soaring Prudential Tower.
Leaving the roads behind, you'll transition to the tranquil waters of the Atlantic Ocean as you set sail aboard a Holland America Line ship for a captivating seven-night voyage.

Your journey continues to Bethel, a quintessential New England town that serves as your base for an exploration of the White Mountains, Franconia Notch, and the breathtaking Kancamagus Highway. Characterful, Portland and Kennebunkport, steeped in maritime heritage, are your final destinations as you’ll then return to Boston.
