East Coast Tours
Our flights depart from London and arrive in Boston where you will start your exciting holiday in the East Coast of America. At Great Rail Journeys we believe that the travelling should be a major part of your overall trip and so we aim to provide you with the most comfortable rail travel that is available. From the comfort of your seat you will be able to relax as you watch some of America's most impressively stunning scenery pass you by. Our East Coast USA Tours take you for journeys on some unique railways. From the Cape Cod Central Railroad that passes by marshes and through woodland, to North Conway's Scenic Railroad 'Notch Train' for a round trip through mountains and valleys with the added enjoyment of a running commentary of the sights and their histories. There is also a special trip on the Mount Washington Cog Railway which dates back to 1869 and takes you to the top of Mount Washington, Eastern USA's highest peak, where the views across the White Mountain Range are simply awe-inspiring. Our East Coast USA Tours are accompanied throughout by your professional Tour Manager who will have plenty of knowledge about each destination that you visit and will be available to offer assistance should you require it.
Spectacular colours and beautiful mountain scenery come together on an autumn adventure on America's East Coast. We stay in Cape Cod, Boston and the White Mountains, experiencing the region's terrific scenic railways on a seasonal tour that brings out the very best of stunning New England.
