Tour de la côte de Nouvelle-Angleterre au départ de Boston
Une prise en charge est possible le matin dans certains hôtels du centre de Boston si elle est pré-organisée au moment de la réservation. Sinon, rendez-vous dans le centre-ville de Boston et montez à bord d'un autocar climatisé de luxe pour un voyage sur la côte nord, entre Boston et le New Hampshire.
Profitez d'une vue imprenable sur la côte rocheuse parsemée de marais, de plages et de ports. Votre guide vous expliquera l'importance de la région du Massachusetts au niveau historique, culturel et économique.
Lorsque vous traversez la frontière principale, arrêtez-vous dans la ville de Kennebunkport pour profiter de temps libre dans l'un des nombreux restaurants. Les rues bordées d'arbres de Kennebunk dévoilent une architecture des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles construite par les marchands et les capitaines de bateaux.
Vous continuerez votre voyage le long de la côte jusqu'au phare de Nubble, anciennement appelé phare du cap Neddick. Situé sur le cap Neddick, près de la York River, ce phare du XIXe siècle est un exemple classique de phare pittoresque. Assurez-vous de prendre des photos du site !
Vous vous rendrez également près de Walker Point pour découvrir la résidence d'été du président Bush. Retournez à Kennebunkport pour plus de temps libre. Explorez les alentours, flânez dans les magasins, et détendez-vous sur le trajet du retour vers Boston.

Our driver "Captain" was awesome, He knew the history of the area and many important facts about the coast, weather patterns, homes, light house, foods, personal information about lighthouse. I Hope that tour would include stopping at "Stonewall Kitchens" and a few Antique stores just before Kennebunk instead of so much time at the small Kennebunk town on their future trips. It was a wonderful day even though it was not the best weather, thanks to our guide.
This is a tour that allows you to really unwind in the quaint beachside towns of New England. While the nature and timing of stops don't really allow you to get a suntan, it does give you a lovely break from the hustle and bustle of Boston. Don't miss the cat and dog supplies shop in Kennebunkport!
If you don't get picked up by the service (which refused to pick us up even though there was a pickup point less than 5 mins from our hotel that we were not told of), you are automatically in the back of the queue to board the bus. By the time we got on the bus the entire right side of the bus was full, so we sat on the left. We discussed with a group behind us, that it would be ok because we would go up the coast and back down so no big deal. That was not the case. EVERY single view and photo opportunity was on the right side of the bus. Therefore our entire journey was looking through others phones or heads and a completely obstructed view. I tried to find a number to call and discuss but to no avail. Our tour guide was nice, but I'm sorry I'm not there for him. I'm there for the views. The only ones we got to see were the lighthouse that was under construction (when we got off the bus) and the stop for lunch. Again, if you can't sit on the right side it's not even worth it.
My son and I really enjoyed the tour. The driver/narrator was very informative. We learned many interesting facts and got to see places we probably wouldn't have seen otherwise
Even though it rained most of the day, our driver kept us happy and showed us many nice places. And to go in October is just the right time to see the colourful Indian Summer.
This tour is well worth the time and cost, very organized and on time. Our driver, Susan, was great and the scenery was spectacular especially on the Maine coast. Kennebunkport was a lovely quaint town to enjoy lunch and browse in the shops.
After a frantic few days, my friend and I were looking for a more relaxing way to spend the last day of our vacation. I have never been to Maine and read some good reviews about this tour. Viator was a pleasure to deal with every step of the way, including patiently talking us through to the departure site, when we got turned around. The tour, itself, couldn't have been better. Our driver was excellent, smooth safe driving, warm and courteous, and a fascinating tour guide. He gave us plenty of insight into the history behind all the sights that we saw and knew when to sit back and just let us enjoy the view. And what a view! Magnificent coastlines, wooded areas, beautiful houses and stunning rocky beaches. The stops we made were well chosen and well timed. We were always able to enjoy ourselves, without being rushed. On the way home we asked to be dropped off at the Blue Line and were cheerfully accommodated. We finished the day feeling happy and peaceful. I recommend this tour absolutely.
