New Englands Fall Colours

The splendid autumn leaves of New England provide the landscape of colour for this eight day holiday. This is truly a spectacular time of year to see this beautiful part of the US, when the leaves transform from green to a thousand shades of flame reds, fiery russets, rich golds and deep ochres. We journey through the States of Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island with their graceful colonial towns, thousands of miles of beautiful coast line and cities filled with superb museums. New England offers a unique charm along with a warm and friendly welcome to all its visitors

A range of local hotels, subject to availability, can be offered to suit individual requirements.
