Cape Cod tours

David & Mark's verdict

Nowhere in Cape Cod lies more than six miles from the sea. Soak up the atmosphere of a "proper" seaside resort, or explore the protected dunes of the National Seashore. Easily reached from Boston, the Cape offers whale watching, ferry trips to the nearby islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard and old sea captains' houses.

North America Travel Service says

The six states of New England are primarily known for their fiery autumnal show of spectacular reds and golds. But there’s so much more, year-round, including majestic mountains, crystal-clear lakes and a coastline of rugged cliffs, fishing villages and idyllic beaches.

A short drive from Boston, Cape Cod boasts scores of beaches, small fishing ports and charming villages filled with quaint boutiques. Antiques stores dot the shoreline.

The historic whaling town of Provincetown is worth a visit, as is Plymouth Rock, which marks the Pilgrims’ 1620 landing site. Take a scenic ferry journey to Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket Island, seaside towns reminiscent of a bygone era.

One of the best ways to experience this spectacular destination is on a luxury escorted tour. Our Cape Cod & The Islands 8-day itinerary takes in all of the Cape’s highlights, staying in some of its finest hotels and dining on local delicacies in the best restaurants, accompanied by a knowledgeable tour director.
