New England Holiday featuring the historic Omni Mount Washington Resort

Bundle up for a festive journey through charming, historic locales of New England. Get ready to stroll through Boston’s old, winding city streets, strewn with sparkling lights and feel the cheer in the chilly New England air. With no scheduled activities today due to varied arrivals, spend the day exploring Boston as you wish.

This morning, take a panoramic tour of Boston to see the historic city’s Old South Meeting House, Boston Common, and the quaint cobblestone streets and Federal-style rowhouses of Beacon Hill. Then, step out to explore Faneuil Hall, the true heart of Boston, with free time for lunch — maybe try a local favorite like clam chowdah as you admire the dazzling lights of its towering Christmas tree. Later, soak in the festive atmosphere of Snowport, a European-style outdoor Christmas market in Boston’s Seaport District. Shop for one-of-a-kind goods as you meander through rows of local vendors and sip mulled wine. This evening, gather for a welcome reception at a local restaurant and then take your seat at the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Enjoy a special performance by the Grammy-nominated Boston Pops, featuring holiday classics, singalongs, and even an appearance by the big man in red.

After a relaxed morning, set out for New Hampshire’s White Mountains. Arrive at the historic Omni Mount Washington Resort. Discover this iconic hotel, all decked out for the holidays, where world-class amenities and grand architecture await. This evening, join a private history tour of the property, which has hosted the likes of Thomas Edison, Winston Churchill, and several U.S. presidents. After, enjoy dinner at your leisure in the hotel’s elegant dining room.

This morning, visit a Christmas tree farm in the appropriately named town of Bethlehem. Discover the farm’s contributions to forest conservation and live out your Hallmark movie fantasies as you take a scenic horsedrawn carriage ride while staying warm and cozy with a blanket and hot chocolate. After, enjoy free time for lunch and shopping in the picturesque town of Littleton. Back at the Omni, the afternoon is yours to soak up your surroundings, perhaps taking time for breathtaking mountain views from the wraparound porch or staying snug by the roaring fireplace. This evening, join a festive cookie-decorating class with tips and tricks from one of the resort’s chefs.

Say goodbye to the snowcapped White Mountains and discover a coastal holiday scene — you’re on your way to Newport, famous for its Gilded Age mansions and ocean scenery. Arriving in the area this afternoon, it’s your choice! Visit Blithewold Manor* to explore the historic estate, beautifully decorated for the holiday season -OR- take a spin around the fascinating Newport Car Museum, where over 100 automobiles on display double as works of art. This evening, settle in at your waterfront hotel on Newport’s Goat Island.

Discover Newport on a panoramic tour, following Ocean Drive for stunning coastal views and glimpses into the area’s rich history. Step inside The Breakers, the grand mansion built by the Vanderbilt family. Immerse yourself in the mansion’s holiday magic, with its opulent rooms adorned with Christmas trees and a 15-foot poinsettia tree in the Great Hall. After, head to Newport’s charming downtown and enjoy free time on your own for lunch and some last-minute holiday shopping at the many boutiques along the waterfront. Tonight, join your fellow travelers for a cheerful farewell dinner at a popular local restaurant.

Your tour ends today. May the memories of your holiday adventure be joyful!
