About this title

Synopsis

Insight Guide New England is a comprehensive guidebook to one of North America’s most exciting regions. Full-color photos throughout combine with the lively text to help you discover the best of this historic region. The natural beauty and lively cities of Massachusetts, the ski slopes and mountain trails or Vermont and New Hampshire, and the coastal waters of Maine are all covered. Our inspirational “Insight recommends” section outlines top attractions and activities not to miss, while features by local writers cover a whole range of subjects – including how to spot the best of the fall foliage; crossing the historic covered bridges; exploring Boston’s Freedom Trail; spending a day luxuriating in the mansions of Newport, Rhode Island; and the best tips for viewing New England’s wildlife. Eleven Places chapters cover the entire region, with full-color maps that are cross-referenced to the text for ease of use. Evocative accounts of the history and culture combine with lively descriptions of the main towns and cities, all illustrated with full color photographs. The extensive Travel Tips provide all the planning information you’ll need, such as how to get around, how much to budget for your trip, and selective listings on where to stay and where to eat.
