Days: 1
New York City
How about an instant overview of NYC? We've included your entrance to the Empire State Building. So ride the subway and the ear popping elevators for crisp evening views right across Manhattan
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 2
Ithaca
Situated by Cayuga Lake, largest of the Finger Lakes, this town has a young-at-heart buzz to it, thanks to its plentiful students. Taste the wine and cider samplings of this rebound region or take a short hike to one of the most popular waterfalls in New York State.
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 3-4
Toronto
Glimpse the crashing Niagara Falls and make the last few paces into Canada across nearby Rainbow Bridge. No freestanding structure on earth stands taller than the CN Tower, so get up and gawp down over this pretty city by Lake Ontario. Browse trendy stores and cosy cafes on College and Queens Street, and don't be too surprised to see an A-lister: TO (that's Toronto, Ontario) is Canada's answer to Hollywood.
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 5-6
Montreal
With more French speakers than anywhere outside of Paris, expect a little European flair. Museums, galleries, eateries and clubs mix a cocktail of the best bits from both continents. Don't miss out on the 'Underground City' including 30km devoted to all things retail.
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 7
Stowe
During the winter, this 'Ski Capital of the East' puts on an incredible winter spread, but remains a highlight with hiking, biking and swimming during summer months within the same mountain range. Stowe isn't complete without a stop by the Ben and Jerrry's ice cream factory! So arrange your own day's adventure or just wander the quaint clapboard town itself.
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 8-9
Boston
Here in 'Beantown' relive the revolution along the Freedom Trail. Later perhaps a bite to eat in an Italian North End trattoria, a seasonal brew in an authentic Irish pub and your best dance moves in a lively, late-night hangout.
Accommodation: Hostel included
-
Days: 10
New York
One last blast of the Big Apple could mean a few circuits of Central Park or one last stroll along 5th Avenue. Now, that's what you call a storybook ending.
Tour ends at 14:00 hrs in New York on day 10.
What type of accomodation can I expect on the Northeastern BLT? The majority of our nights will be spent in hostels.
