The fun begins as soon as you board your “DUCK”, a W.W.II style amphibious landing vehicle. First, you’ll be greeted by one of their legendary tour ConDUCKtors, who will be narrating your sightseeing tour of Boston. Then you’re off on a journey like you’ve never had before. And as the best of Boston unfolds before your eyes, your ConDUCKtor will be giving you lots of little-known facts and interesting insights about our unique and wonderful city. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, it’s time for “Splashdown” as your captain splashes your DUCK right into the Charles River for a breathtaking view of the Boston and Cambridge skylines, a view you just won’t get anywhere else.
Then we’ll walk across the street to Faneuil Hall Marketplace. Four great places in one location – Faneuil Hall, Quincy Market, North Market and South Market, all set around a cobblestone promenade where jugglers, magicians and musicians entertain the passers-by.
Dine at a restaurant or at one of the many outdoor cafes. In addition, you’ll find thirty international food merchants inside the Quincy Market Food Colonnade – the largest food hall in New England. So, stroll, shop, eat, laugh, wander, wonder, and explore it all.
After lunch, walk back across the street to the New England Aquarium, home to thousands of aquatic animals - from northern fur seals to giant Pacific octopus to little blue penguins. They also offer a wide range of exhibits, including the largest shark ray touch tank on the East Coast and the Giant Ocean Tank, a four-story coral reef home to Myrtle the green sea turtle and hundreds of other Caribbean animals.

Join us for a day of fascinating history right in our own back yard. Orchard House is most noted for being where Louisa May Alcott wrote and set Little Women in 1868. This noble home also has a rich history stretching back two centuries beforehand, as well as more than 100 years of life as a treasured historic site. Discover the many ways in which the family impacted literature, education, philosophy, art, reforms of all kinds -- and each other. The home was constructed circa 1650, and then witnessed the "Redcoat Line of March to the North Bridge" on the 19th April 1775! Revel in the resilience of this dear old house, and marvel at the bravery of its inhabitants throughout three centuries. This tour will introduce you to the family members themselves, the household items that held meaning to them, their individual and collective achievements and lasting impact, as well as their influence on characters in the beloved novel, Little Women.
Afterwards, we’re off to lunch to the Horseshoe Pub & Restaurant, a premier gastro pub. Choose between Beef Tips, Baked Haddock, Chicken Parm, all entrees served with mashed potatoes/pasta, salad and dessert, coffee, tea & soda.
Lastly, we stop at the American Heritage Museum, chronicling the history of the American soldier from the Revolutionary War to modern conflicts. Told through over 85 large artifacts throughout the museum, the museum maintains one of the largest collections of operating tanks and military vehicles. Hear and experience the personal stories of those that fought through the World War I trench experience, engaging docents who crewed tanks, and the moving story of the crew of the M1A1 Abrams on display.

Arrive in Hyannis and take the 1-hour high-speed ferry aboard Grey Lady to Nantucket Island, a 50-square mile island with windswept beaches, sand dunes, blinking lighthouses and a charming pace of life. It’s marked by its unpainted cedar-shingled buildings, many surrounded by manicured privets. The wharves and cobblestoned streets of the town are lined with restaurants, high-end boutiques and steeple churches.
While on the island enjoy a fully narrated historic 1.5-hour tour of Nantucket. This tour offers a truly interesting riding tour of America's most scenic little island. In just over an hour, become acquainted with the "Little Grey Lady," famous as the world's foremost whaling port in the 18th century. The continuous narrated tour covers close to 65% of the island including: The Old Mill, "Sconset" Village with its rose-covered cottages, Low Beach, Sankaty Head Lighthouse, Cranberry bogs and Nantucket moors.
After your tour, enjoy lunch on your own with free time after. You can do a little shopping, visit the town’s Whaling Museum that recounts the island’s role as a 19th-century whaling hub, visit some of their historic houses, or maybe you just want to go to the beach. There is something for everyone.
We’ll make a quick stop for dinner, on your own, at the Cape Cod Mall before ending a great day with great memories.

Our first stop is Len Libby Candies, a rare candy store where everything is still handmade. Walk past the endless variety of taffy, brittles, chocolate, and cookies to lock eyes with the real star of the show: Lenny, a life-sized chocolate moose. Lenny, weighing 1,700 pounds, has stood proudly (and somehow uneaten!) for over 25 years. There is also a whole corner dedicated to blueberries infused with honey, teas, chocolates, and even caramel popcorn.
Then we are off for a delicious lunch at DiMillo’s On the Water, serving the freshest seafood since 1954 aboard Maine’s only floating restaurant. Enjoy amazing views of the harbor from every table. Choose between the Baked Stuffed Chicken Breast served with fire roasted apple & cranberry stuffing, pecan panko crumbs with maple cream, Broiled Haddock topped with seasoned bread crumbs and lemon butter, or Honey Baked Scallops baked with ritz crackers crumbs & honey butter. Your entrée will include vegetable, potato, bread, coffee, tea, and soda. Don’t forget about dessert: Maine Blueberry Cobbler. Yum!
Then we’ll hop on Casco Bay’s Mailboat Run, a 2.5 to 3-hour cruise, the locals’ favorite way to experience Casco Bay. This true working boat carries passengers, mail, and freight to Little Diamond, Great Diamond, Long, Cliff and Chebeague Islands. As the oldest running service of its kind, their Mailboat run not only delivers the mail and other goods to islanders, it offers landlubbers a glimpse at the realities of island life and the opportunity to adventure along Maine’s rugged coastline. Please note there is no food onboard, but plenty of seats and a bathroom. Bring your favorite beverage/snack for the cruise and watch the crew load and unload the cargo; it’s always interesting. This is a terrific and inexpensive way to see the islands and get a feel for what living there is like, so hop onboard!

A fun dining experience like no other! It’s lobster at Fosters Downeast Clambake in York Harbor, Maine! This authentic Maine clambake is truly a crowd pleaser, beginning with the Lobster, served with clam chowder, steamed clams/mussels, corn on the cob, red potatoes & onions, and delicious Maine blueberry cake for dessert. If Lobster isn’t your thing, you have the option of a Half of BBQ Chicken grilled to perfection in their own sweet and sour hickory sauce. Self-serve lemonade, iced tea, and coffee are included, with a full bar available as well.
Next, we’ll make a photo stop at Cape Neddick “Nubble” Lighthouse, considered to be one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world. This 41-foot lighthouse sits on the summit of Cape Neddick Nubble, a small offshore rocky islet overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It is commonly known as "Nubble Light" or simply "the Nubble". As you enter Sohier Park from Nubble Road, you will immediately see Nubble Light sitting atop the large rock island a few hundred feet off shore. While the lighthouse and grounds aren't open to the public, you can view and snap a photo of it from Sohier Park on the mainland and visit their small gift shop for souvenirs.
Then, we arrive at Short Sands Beach, a tiny, relaxed beach with a promenade offering dining options, shops & arcades, plus bath facilities. Visit Goldenrod, a candy store, homemade ice cream shop, and restaurant, located in the heart of Short Sands Beach since 1896. Home of the mouthwatering sensation Goldenrod Kisses, their own salt water taffy made in full view of spectators. As the sweet aroma of boiling sugar and molasses fills the air, one bite of a Goldenrod Kiss will take you back to a time to when things were simpler.

Enjoy the beach rain or shine! Our stops are Hampton Beach or York Beach – you pick. You get off where you want and spend the day!!
Hampton Beach, located in New Hampshire, is easily the busiest beach in the state and where all the action is. The Atlantic Ocean is the main attraction, with its clean water, miles of sandy beach, and spruced up bathhouses. But don’t forget to take a stroll along Ocean Avenue, where arcades, T-shirt stands, and souvenir shops elbow for space with fast-food joints, fried-dough vendors, and candy shops. So much to do, where to begin?
Next, we arrive in York Beach at Short Sands Beach, a small beach with calm waters. Take time to visit The Goldenrod: part restaurant, part ice cream parlor, part candy store, complete with huge taffy-stretching machine in the front window that kids will love watching. Famous for their saltwater taffy, you should pick up a box to take home for a souvenir. After the day ends, we will head back home. Trip goes, rain or shine!
