In Massachusetts, you’ll delve into history on a sightseeing tour of Boston and visit laid-back Cape Cod with its vibrant towns and windswept dunes. You’ll discover the timeless allure of Martha's Vineyard, see historic homes in Rhode Island and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of New Hampshire’s White Mountains.
