Itinerary

DAY1 Boston City Tour

We start our tour in the morning with a short drive from Boston to Cambridge where we’ll tour two of the world’s top institutions of higher education. Harvard University, founded in 1636, is the oldest and most historic of the nation’s colleges, boasting buildings that have stood since its earliest days. MIT perennially ranks among the top engineering and technology schools in the world, and is known for its culture of innovation. We’ll then visit the Massachusetts State House, which dates back to the earliest years of America’s independence, presiding atop a hill that overlooks the Boston Common. After a Harbor Cruise* on the Charles River and around the Port of Boston, we’ll admire the library that was dedicated to John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States before completing our visit to Boston at Faneuil Hall, a bustling shopping and dining district where we will have a uniquely Bostonian experience for dinner.

Standard Hotel: Comfort Inn/Days Inn or similar

DAY2 Boston - 1000 Islands - Niagara Falls (623 miles)

We depart Boston in the morning, for our destination, the Thousand Islands, a string of approximately 1,800 islands that span the U.S.-Canada border, stretching for over 50 miles from the mouth of Lake Ontario downstream of the St. Lawrence River. When you arrive, you will be able to explore the archipelago aboard the Thousand Islands Boat Cruise*, which will take you around some of the most beautiful scenery that the region has to offer, through waters that were once patrolled by pirates, now dotted by seafaring vacationers. You will hear the various legends surrounding the islands and witness the many historic sites that contribute to the lore. Following the cruise, our journey continues to Niagara Falls, where, in the evening, passengers will have the option of a special Night Tour* of this natural wonder, as the Falls can be quite spectacular when they are illuminated after dark.

Standard Hotel: America Best Value Inn or similar

DAY3 Niagara Falls Sightseeing - Boston (466 miles)

This morning, we head to Niagara Falls from out hotel. Those who are interested in a special adventure may like to try the Maid of the Mist boat ride*, a one-of-a-kind experience which will take you amazingly close to the wall of cascading water as it rains down from above. After drying off, we’ll then head to Goat Island, the oldest state park in the U.S., which offers spectacular views of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. Not to be missed is the IMAX Experience Niagara Falls*, which will provide you with perspective on the lore, legends, and daredevilry associated with this wonder of the world. After lunch, our bus will begin the return journey back to Boston. Our approximate arrival time in the city will be 9:00 pm
