Exceptional New England

Welcome to New England! Check into your room at your seaside resort and enjoy time at leisure to relax on the white sand beach and take in striking views of Montauk and Block Island in the distance. In the afternoon, visit Newport to embark on a private cruise aboard a fully staffed vintage motor yacht, complete with a raw bar and lobster lunch. Admire the town’s famed stately mansions from the water, spectate a local sailboat race, or sail around little-known Jamestown for a true insider tour. 

Cross the border into Massachusetts and make your way up the Cape Cod peninsula, famed for its pristine beaches, quaint villages and delectable seafood. Check into your seaside resort and enjoy some time to discover the magic of the Cape at your own pace. You may elect to head out on a private fishing charter or whale watching excursion, or join a local foodie guide for a tasting tour of this bountiful region’s gourmet

Work your way back down the Cape before kicking off the Maine leg of your road trip as you proceed to Ogunquit. Wabanaki for “beautiful place by the sea,” Ogunquit has attracted beachgoers and artists alike for centuries. As evening approaches, step aboard a private lobstering vessel for a hands-on lobstering experience. Try your hand at baiting traps, hauling up catches and handling live lobsters as you learn about the importance of the lobster industry to Maine’s cultural fabric. 

Continue heading north as Ogunquit’s picturesque shores give way to the natural splendor of Acadia National Park. Arrive in Bar Harbor in time to drop off your bags and grab lunch, then delight in an aerial survey of the park aboard an authentic 1930’s biplane. See if you can spot all seven of the nearby lighthouses from the air then once back on terra firma, enjoy the evening at your leisure. Spend your final day in Maine on a guided tour of Acadia National Park with a naturalist driver guide. Explore Acadia’s natural treasures, including pristine woodlands, rocky beaches and glacier-scoured granite peaks as you keep an eye out for the local resident wildlife.
