  • Itinerary

DAY1 New York - Finger Lakes - Niagara Falls (394 miles)

We’ll depart from New York City in the morning, heading north through the beautiful Delaware Gap to Watkins Glen State Park in the heart of the Finger Lakes region. Walk through Watkins Glen Canyon to see the picturesque gorge, passing over and under waterfalls and along a vast stretch of woodland. We’ll continue past Seneca Lake and its miles upon miles of vineyards to arrive at Niagara Falls in the late afternoon. At night, make sure not to miss the unforgettable illumination of the Falls, as colorful lighting transforms the raging waters.

Then we’ll experience the power of the Falls aboard the Maid of the Mist boat ride (summer) or the Journey Behind the Falls tunnels (winter), both offering a unique, not-to-be-missed perspective of this natural wonder. At noon, we’ll depart south to New York State. On the way, we’ll enjoy an afternoon shopping excursion at the Woodbury Commons, one of New York's best shopping venues, with discounts of as much as 40-60% on products in over 230 brand name stores, including Ralph Lauren, Armani, Calvin Klein, Gucci, and many more! Finally, we’ll make an evening arrival at our hotel in New Jersey.
