Day 1-3
Arrive in Boston
Arrive in Boston, the largest city in New England and one of the oldest in the United States. Explore the Freedom Trail, encompassing the city's most historic landmarks including Faneuil Hall, Paul Revere's home, the Old North Church and the USS Constitution in Boston Harbour. Take a leisurely stroll around Boston Common - a true oasis in the city. Of course, no visit to Boston would be complete without sampling the New England Clam Chowder - we recommend the Atlantic Fish Co. Restaurant.
Day 4-6
New York City
Transfer from Boston to New York City by the iconic Amtrak train. Get the best seat and watch in wonder as the fantastic scenery passes by. After arriving in New York City, head out to explore its many fascinating sites and incredible sky-high architecture. Why not visit the One World Observatory to get fantastic views of the city, enjoy a show on Broadway or marvel at the hustle and bustle of Times Square? Other options include shopping at Macy’s and Bloomingdales, two of New York’s landmark retailers, and strolling through the beautiful Central Park. There is truly so much to see and do here.
Day 7-13
Cunard Line
Leave New York in style as you board The Queen Mary 2 for your homebound transatlantic cruise. This remarkable ship is full of style and elegance. Whether you are looking for complete relaxation or entertainment and glamour, you will find it here. You’ll be able to enjoy the outstanding entertainment on offer, indulge in the Canyon Ranch Spa Club or, if the mood takes you, kick back with a good book in the vast on-board library. With elegant staterooms and suites, and many sumptuous restaurants and bars, you’ll make fabulous memories that last a lifetime.
