Day 1 - New York, New York
Everyone loves New York and there are a million reasons why. Here are but a few: the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, Grand Central Station, the Ellis Island National Monument, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum, Times Square, Broadway, Greenwich Village, 5th Avenue and Central Park.
Day 2 - Newport, Rhode Island
During the 19th century, Newport served as the summer playground for the rich and famous. Residents displayed their fabulous wealth in the form of palatial estates overlooking the Atlantic. Today, these extraordinary and meticulously maintained homes line the city's famed "Mansion Row" and are a must-see for any visitor.
Day 3 - Portland, Maine
Portland offers all the amenities of a big city: art districts, a vibrant waterfront, museums, parks and diverse shopping opportunities. But within minutes, you can be enjoying the view from an historic lighthouse or tasting a juicy, local lobster.
Day 4 - Bar Harbor, Maine This coastal attraction has retained much of its charm since its glory days of the 1900s, when America's elite vacationed here in opulent summer cottages. Surrounding the rock-bound harbor is the world-famous Acadia National Park where the opulence of nature is on display.
Day 5 - Halifax, Nova Scotia Admire the rugged coastline that surrounds Halifax, the world's second-largest natural harbor. This beautifully preserved city is Nova Scotia's capital and was founded in 1749. Take steps through history and climb to The Citadel to witness the Old Town Clock.
Day 6 - Saint John, Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick Saint John's history is evident in its weather-worn look, passing the tests of salt air, sea winds and a devastating fire that have all contributed to making Saint John the greatest little city in the east. Be sure to look for your ship in the port against the beauty of the Bay of Fundy from Fort Howe lookout.
Day 7 - Fun Day at Sea! This is our last day at sea, so take advantage of the down time before we get to New York! All that stuff you didn’t do on ship? Today’s the day to fit it in!
Day 8 - New York City, New York Often hailed as the most exciting city in the world, New York is a place you have to see at least once in a lifetime. It’s home to one of the world’s biggest and best gay scenes. You’ll find endless iconic locations. So many movies are set in New York - it feels like you’ve already been before you even arrive. The New York gay scene used to be centered around Greenwich Village, along with New York’s bohemian scene. The biggest gay scene in New York today can be found in Hell’s Kitchen. Some of our favorite Hell’s Kitchen gay bars include Industry and Flaming Saddles. All are popular with tourists. If you’re planning a big gay night out in New York, Hell’s Kitchen is the place to be.
