This exciting escorted tour begins in the capital state of America, Washington, DC and includes visits to Pennsylvania, Niagara Falls and New York.

The Big Apple, Niagara & Washington, DC Escorted Tour starts with an introduction to Washington, DC’s famous landmarks such as Lincoln Memorial, Washington, DC Monument, WWII Memorial, The White House, the United States Capitol. You will also have time to do your own exploring of this iconic city, filled with fascinating museums and enjoy the lively cafes and restaurants, great shopping and lots of fun things to do. The Georgetown neighbourhood is home to some of the city’s most notable residents, and of course, culinary gems waiting to be discovered.

From Washington, DC your escorted tour holiday continues to Pennsylvania Dutch farming country, one of the largest settlements of Amish people. Your local specialist will take you through the faith, culture and way of life of the Amish people who reject modern technology. Experience one of the most interesting subcultures in the United States first hand as you visit their farms, bakeries, markets, quilt shops and mills.

Cross the border into Canada and arrive at beautiful Niagara Falls. See both the Canadian and American Falls as you cruise to the base of Horseshoe Falls and gasp in awe at the majesty, colours and roar of the Great Lakes. You’ll also have some free time here to explore the Niagara-on-the-Lake region in your own time where a visit to a local winery to taste ice wine is highly recommended.

Then the last stop on this tour is The Big Apple…the city that never sleeps! See Time Square, The Rockefeller Centre, shop at Macy’s, take a stroll in Central Park and visit the 9/11 Memorial. You’ll have lots of free time for you to follow your own interests in the city that never sleeps.
