  Full Itinerary

1. Arrive New York City
Tour begins: InterContinental The Barclay New York at 6:30 P.M
. From "discovery" in 1609 by explorer Henry Hudson, through centuries of ideas and innovation, to the dawn of the 21st century, New York City has defined and shaped the culture of America. Your legendary hotel enjoys one of Manhattan's best addresses – 48th street, close to Park Avenue. We invite you to join us this evening for a welcome reception and dinner. Meals D

2. Discover the Best of New York
Statue of Liberty
Travel first "downtown" to discover the diversity of New York's many neighborhoods. Stroll along the tree-lined streets of Greenwich Village; one of the oldest sections of New York, it was once the mecca for creative artists, as well as a Bohemian enclave. Travels through Soho include a glimpse of elegant shops, chic restaurants and art galleries. Make a poignant visit to Ground Zero and St. Paul's Chapel, and see Little Italy, Chinatown, City Hall, Trinity Church and Wall Street. Following lunch at the historic South Street Seaport, you have a choice of afternoon sightseeing. Embark on a tour of Manhattan sites including Battery Park, Grand Central Terminal, Lincoln Center, Central Park, Fifth Avenue, and Zabars, a landmark gourmet shop on the Upper West Side. Alternatively, join us for a fascinating "insider" Broadway theatre tour. Experience the sights and sounds of Broadway this evening when you attend a production chosen from a selection of shows.
Note: first choice of show may not always be available; choices will be provided at time of booking for your selection. Meals B

3. Hudson Valley or New York Art

Two choices await today! Travel north to the Hudson River Valley where New York City's wealthy industrialists built magnificent homes along the river's beautiful shores. Visit Kykuit, home to generations of the Rockefeller family; it is the "crown jewel of the Hudson." The estate features a gracious classical faηade, English country house interior, an extensive collection of American art, and magnificent landscaped gardens. You'll also visit Philipsburg Manor, a late 17th-century – early 18th-century milling, farming, and trading complex. Your other choice is to spend the day in New York City exploring the role of public art in the shaping of the city. See examples of outdoor public sculptures with a local art expert who then takes you "inside" an artist's studio for a behind-the-scenes visit. Both choices enjoy a sightseeing journey by boat late afternoon for a different perspective. Meals

4. Newport / Arrive Boston
Cliff Walk
Your sojourn in New York City ends when you travel through Connecticut to Newport, Rhode Island. The former shipbuilding center has long maintained its seafaring heritage throughout different eras of prosperity, from colonial days of the 17th and 18th centuries to the excesses of the Gilded Age. Explore the famed "Ten-Mile Drive," boasting exquisite estates from the early 1900's, followed by a choice of a visit to William Vanderbilt's elaborately ornate Marble House or a stroll along the dramatic Cliff Walk, combining the natural beauty of Newport with a legacy of architectural history. Arrive in Boston for an evening at your leisure. Meals

5. Boston by Land or Sea

Follow in history's footsteps as you embark on two days exploration of the "Cradle of American Independence." Step back in time on a sightseeing visit that takes you to Back Bay, Copley Square, Boston Public Garden, Boston Common, Old South Meeting House, Faneuil Hall and Old North Church. Three sightseeing choices in and around Boston await this afternoon. Embark on a whale watching cruise that might provide a glimpse of the Pilot, Minke or Humpback whales; or alternatively, cruise the waters of historic Boston Harbor for a look at New England's sea and wildlife. Your third choice is a "North End Market Tour" where you discover the many secrets of one of America's oldest Italian neighborhoods and its cuisine in the company of a local chef. Meals
B

6. Cape Cod or Art & Literature

Journey out of Boston to the delightful town of Provincetown on Cape Cod, where you can explore beautiful beaches or the town's art galleries at your leisure. A different choice awaits on a tour of Boston's literary heritage with a local historian, who will immerse you in Boston's rich literary connections, including Louisa May Alcott and Henry David Thoreau. Your final selection is a venture into the world of art with visits to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the Isabella Stewart Gardiner Museum. We invite you to join us this evening for a farewell reception and dinner. Meals
