Lighthouses Aren't the Only Reason People Found Their Way Here
New England and eastern Canada have an unmistakable charm, history and natural beauty all their own, and there's no better time to visit than the fall. The foliage is brilliant in every imaginable color, lighthouses dot the coastline, and there's always an authentic lobster bake going on somewhere.

Boston, MA Known as "the Hub" since its pre-revolutionary days as "the Hub of Civilization," Boston is still an exciting, vibrant city. Home to some of the world's greatest universities and colleges, there is always something happening there. It's an extremely walkable city with an easily accessible public transportation system, making it easy for tourists to explore.
Bar Harbor, ME Charming cobblestone streets and quaint storefronts make Bar Harbor a delightful New England vacation destination. But it's what's just down the road that makes it truly unique. Acadia National Park, just a short drive from downtown Bar Harbor, is a triumph of the Parks System Conservative Program and offers a spectacular display of nature at its finest. Rocky cliffs and jagged coastline open to beautiful ocean views and stony beaches, perfect for a mouthwatering traditional Maine lobster bake.
Eastern Canada From the bustling excitement of Halifax to the quaint, quiet pace of Saint John's, North America's oldest city, eastern Canada is a large and varied region. Echoes of Europe are visible in its charming streets and architecture. And nature is an essential part of everyday life, with hiking, white-water rafting and kayaking giving people ample opportunity to explore.
