Legendary Journeys and Adventures

An autumn fall foliage tour paints New England landscapes with bold, Impressionist colors that surprise, delight, energize and mesmerize, and awaken the visionary in you.

This excursion through Grand New England offers more than the visual excitement of a fall foliage tour. Enjoy exclusive filmed vignettes by filmmakers Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan that share personal stories and take you behind the scenes of their films. See American history in a new light in places where it was made, then re-made by poets, painters and icon-makers... the Revolutionary heart of Boston, the Berkshire retreats of Norman Rockwell and Edith Wharton, and the Gilded Age mountain resort at Bretton Woods. Travel through lush forests and fertile fields sweet with fragrant air, rich in tradition and brimming with antique charm. Search out the elusive soul of New England from Boston to Portland, from fishing boats to the summit of Mount Washington... in the taste of fresh lobster and maple syrup, and in the dazzled eye of the beholder.

Omni Mount Washington Resort

Nights 6 and 7

Gilded Age opulence in New Hampshire's White Mountains

Surrounded by the White Mountains in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, the Omni Mount Washington Resort is one of New England's last grand Gilded Age resort hotels still in operation. Since 1902, this palatial hotel has been a magnet for presidents, robber barons and celebrities; Babe Ruth and Thomas Edison, for example, loved to play golf here. In 1944, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund were established right here in the Mount Washington Resort's Gold Room. This historic hotel's architectural grandeur is well-preserved, and the mountain scenery is stunning no matter the season.
