Freedom Trail

Itinerary

Day 1-2, New York & Washington DC

See where modern historymakers shape the future. An evening tour shows off the seat of US power, awash with icons like the White House, Jefferson Monument and Capitol Hill. When it comes to DC's museums "Land of the Free" is spot on barely any of them, sensational Smithsonian included, will cost you a dime. Later, switch from culture to clubbing in the oh-so-cool lounges around Dupont Circle.Accommodation: Camping included

Day 3-4, Bear Country & Niagara Falls

Here in Pennsylvania, there are more black bears per square mile than anywhere else in the States. Keep your cameras on standby, folks! Then to the edge of Lake Ontario and America's greatest national attractions, Niagara Falls. The sensation of crashing water is stupendous, the noise immense. Wait 'til you're down on the water aboard "Maid of the Mist", where the cascades pound,churn and foam right before your eyes. That's what you call a front row seat!Accommodation: Camping included

Day 5, Berkshire Mountains

City folk just can't resist hiding out here in summer and you'll soon figure why: cycle trails snake through forested hills and meadow walks skirt clapboard farms. This is 100% New England.Accommodation: Camping

Day 6, Boston

Welcome to Bean Town! Relive the Revolution along the Freedom Trail or let Faneuil Hall's street performers, stores and eateries tell their own Bostonian tale. Lounge and watch the locals from the lawns of Boston Common, then pop across to the famous pub Cheers.Accommodation: En-route hotel approx US$45 pppn in multi-share rooms paid locally.

Day 7, New York
