Vibrant and exciting, there is nowhere else quite like the Big Apple! Famous for sights that include the Statue of Liberty, Central Park and the Empire State Building, plus top-class Broadway shows and the elegant shops of Fifth Avenue. The six states of New England are the most historic in the nation, from the early settlements of the Pilgrim Fathers to their celebrated role as the birthplace of American independence. Boston, a city of enormous charm, is many people’s first taste of New England and its small-town atmosphere combines gracious 18th century townhouses; winding, cobble-stoned streets and modern skyscrapers. Washington D.C. is a vibrant city offering a fantastic blend of sightseeing, shopping, entertainment and dining opportunities. Tour the White House or climb the Washington Monument for wonderful views of the Mall. Spend your days in historic Georgetown or exploring the free museums.Do make time to venture further, as the relatively short distances between major points of interest make New England absolutely ideal for touring.
