Day 2: Newport
Travel along breathtaking Ocean Drive en route to famous Bellevue Avenue, an especially beautiful sight during the holiday season. The stately mansions of Bellevue Avenue, once referred to as "summer cottages" and now designated National Historic Landmarks, date back to the mid-1800s and reflect the opulence of America's Gilded Age. Glittering white lights, evergreens and thousands of poinsettia plants welcome you when you tour three of the historic mansions: the Breakers, the Marble House and the Elms. Spend your afternoon strolling along famous Thames Street, dotted with galleries and boutiques. This evening, enjoy dinner at The White Horse Tavern, America’s oldest tavern.

Spend time at leisure to explore the many restaurants, shops and historical sites that Portsmouth has to offer. Later, arrive at the hotel where you will enjoy tonight’s elegant dinner* in the main dining room.

Day 4: Bretton Woods - Bethlehem - Bretton Woods
The White Mountains paint a tranquil winter scene as you drive through the countryside to a Christmas tree farm. Soak in lovely vistas of 1,400 protected acres and learn about the history of the farm as you sip on a cup of hot cocoa. Then, step back in time for an old-fashioned horse-drawn wagon ride. This afternoon, join your fellow travelers for holiday activities at the hotel.

The remainder of the evening is yours to enjoy at leisure in this captivating city.
