Day	Travel station	Arrival	Departure
1.	New York (New York, USA) Excursion tips (3)
	New York - the huge, vibrant city by the Hudson River and the unofficial capital of the world - is without a doubt one of the most fascinating cities in the USA. Around 12 million residents from all over the world call New York home. The city is divided into five districts, Manhattan being the heart of the city and the most famous district. Probably just about anyone coming to New York thinks first of Wall Street, Broadway, the Empire State Building, Fifth Avenue and the many museums, Central Park and the Statue of Liberty. All of this can be found in New York City, indeed in the "small" district of Manhattan. "The Big Apple", as the city is also known, is a melting pot of cultures and nationalities, from rich to poor - the ultimate city of contrasts. The subject of many songs, and yet more literature, New York is in a constant state of flux. It is a centre for the economy, the arts and architecture that each of the 25 million visitors annually will experience differently, but which captures the imagination of every single one of them.

3.	Newport (Rhode Island, USA) Arrival: 08:00 Departure: 18:00	08:00	18:00
	One of the largest holiday resorts on Rhode Island is Newport, which is considered to be the sailing capital of the East Coast. Newport is a very pretty and historic American town. Designed in the early colonial era (founded in 1639), the narrow streets and colonial houses bear witness to its rich architectural history. There are still lots of beautiful wooden houses dating from the 17th and 18th century. The town is also famous for its excellent beaches, yacht regattas, music and art festivals. Tourists can visit many of the impressive manor houses, some of which were based on European castles (e.g. those once owned by Vanderbilt and Astor).
4.	At Sea

5.	Saint John (New Brunswick, Canada) Arrival: 07:00 Departure: 17:00	07:00	17:00
	Saint John is New Brunswick's most important port and trading town. This was also where the area's history began in the early 17th century. In 1604 the Frenchman Samuel de Champlain discovered the mouth of a wide river during a sailing expedition in the Bay of Fundy; he called the river 'Saint Jean' in honour of John the Baptist. The first French settlers soon followed, and settled at the coast where they made a living from farming and fishing. The Bay of Fundy with its plentiful fish stocks where Saint John lies is a popular place for whales to come in the Summer months. June to September are the best months to watch these giant sea mammals.
6.	Portland (Maine, USA) Arrival: 07:30 Departure: 20:00	07:30	20:00

7.	Boston (Massachusetts, USA) Arrival: 08:00 Departure: 19:30 Excursion tips (3)	08:00	19:30
	Boston, capital of Massachusetts and the gateway to New England, is laden with history but at the same time vibrant and bursting with energy. Indeed, Boston - with a population of just over half a million - is one of the most interesting cities in America in terms of both history and culture - as well as one of the most beautiful. Unlike most major cities, it still has countless historical buildings and areas, and is among the architectural must-sees of America. Historic buildings, picturesque cobbled streets and relaxing parks meet with modern high-rise buildings, giving a surprisingly harmonious overall effect. A section of the Berlin Wall can be viewed at the harbour, from where you can also set off on a whale-watching trip.
8.	At Sea

9.	Norfolk (Virginia, USA) Arrival: 10:00 Departure: 20:00	10:00	20:00
	With a population of 270,000, Norfolk is the largest city in the state of Virginia. It is also the largest US Navy base in the world. The prominent position of the marines in the city is documented in the Naval Museum. The Chrysler Museum is also worth a visit, as it has an excellent collection of European and American paintings and sculptures. Directly before the city lies Virginia Beach, a popular destination for holidaymakers with its beaches and range of water sports facilities. Hampton is situated on a tongue of land opposite Norfolk. It was founded in 1610, making it the oldest permanent settlement of English origin in the USA. Visitors will also enjoy the highly interesting Virginia Air and Space Centre.
10.	Baltimore (Maryland, USA) Arrival: 08:00 Departure: 18:00 Excursion tips (2)	08:00	18:00
	With approximately 800,000 inhabitants, Baltimore is the largest town in the state of Maryland and one of the most important seaports in the United States. It is also an important industrial and trading centre whose economy is based largely on research and development (in particular pharmaceuticals, medical supplies and medical services). You can also find the house and grave of the writer Edgar Allan Poe in Baltimore. As regards the parts most often frequented by tourists, the port's image has changed considerably over the last few years. Many areas have been renovated and new buildings have been constructed, giving Baltimore a very positive appearance. The Inner Harbor, located on an extension of 320 kilometre long Chesapeake Bay, has become a centre for tourism. The Fregatte Constellation, the U.S. Navy's first ever ship, dating back to 1797 and the oldest boat at sea in the world, is anchored at pier 1 of the Inner Harbor. Of the many museums, the "Baltimore Museum of Art" (with a large number of post-impressionist works), Walters Art Gallery and the City Life Museum, a housing block with buildings representing the city as it was in the 19th century, are particularly worth seeing. Mount Vernon Place has houses and squares from the 19th century, as well as many cultural institutes. This is also where the Washington Monument stands, from where you can enjoy an excellent panorama view of Baltimore and the surrounding area. In the Summer, the Fort McHenry National Monument is the venue for special military parades and ceremonies. The Water Taxis, which connect all of the sights in the harbour area by boat are another of Baltimore's unique features.
