New for Insight’s 2007 USA and Canada program is its 8-day New England’s Spectacular Fall Foliage itinerary.
The undeniable highlight of this tour is Mother Nature’s dazzling display of colourful foliage.
While leaf-spotting hardly sounds like a challenging past time, during the fall season in New England it can be a very rewarding activity. Between mid-September to late-October, visitors flock to New England to see world famous stunning shades of reds, yellows, oranges and browns leaves on the hills and mountain sides of the region.
The joyous explosion of colour that bursts over the landscape of New England each year is nothing short of glorious
