Arrive in Boston, one of the oldest cities in the United States. Founded in 1630 and rich with history and culture, learn about the stories and historic sites of the American Revolution on the Freedom Trail before embarking Scenic Eclipse in the early afternoon.
According to the locals, once you have been "on island," you will never want to leave. Martha’s Vineyard is a charming and beautiful place, surrounded by pristine sandy beaches and brightly painted cottages. Take a walking tour of Oak Bluff or discover the African American heritage. Visit a local oyster farm or join a bus tour.
The city that never sleeps will leave you with endless memories. Take the opportunity to explore New York like a local, or join the Hop-On-Hop-Off Bus to see the sights. Alternatively, go for a bike ride in Central Park.

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
