      Itinerary

      Day 1
      Peak's Island

      Your grand adventure will take place on Peaks Island! Peaks Island is part of Portland and is easily accessible by means of a short ferry ride. Known as Maine’s Coney Island, the population of Peaks Island greatly increases over the summer months. Spend the day exploring Peaks Island. The coastal views, history and all things Peaks Island will make for a perfect summer destination.


      Relax as you are swept all around the island on an electric golf cart for your guided tour. You will experience the spirit of Peaks Island by seeing and learning about the unique perspectives of island life, leisure activities and picturesque cottages. You’ll see interesting homes, unique shops, unparalleled ocean views, World War II forts, and maybe even a deer or beaver.


      Lunch will be enjoyed at the Inn on Peaks Island. The inn itself is idyllic and features true Maine island charm.  For your entrée, choose from the following: Baked Haddock Florentine (with Roasted Fingerlings, Lobster Creamed Spinach and Buttered Lump Crabmeat), or Garlic Teriyaki Tips (with Garlic Parmesan Mashed Potato and Seasonal Vegetables), or Chicken Marsala (with Herbed Linguini and Garlic Bread).  All entrees include:  Mixed Greens with Seasonal Vegetables, Fountain Soda, Iced Tea, Coffee, and Dessert.

      Also today, spend some time on your own. For your free-time, perhaps you’ll want to shop or even watch the boats.

      It was really wonderful the tour and the Culinary institute. Disappointed at the FDR library and Museum... cafe and gift shop not open

      Good value. Accommodations and meals were good, and the tour guides (Loretta and local guide) and bus driver were excellent (van driver from RI to CT, not so much). Itinerary was full and interesting and there was still plenty of time to explore on your own.

      There were many highlights to this tour that were unexpected (even though on the itinerary!) Lunch at Parliament House was fabulous as we had amazing food and got to see the inside of this beautiful building. We got to see lots of the old town and the tour of Castle Frontignac was outstanding. Loretta the guide from TofD was very caring with some of the more frail guests. The Ice Hotel was well worth a visit. Our VIP tickets for the parade gave us a fantastic view and we had a fabulous time. I thought the local guide could have spent a lot less time talking about history and more about Quebec today.

      Quebec City is amazing! We had an excellent time. The highlight was the Canadian tour guide that we met upon arrival and showed us the different sites. He was amazing. The Tours Of Distinction guide was disorganized and not engaged. She was helpful at times but could have much better.
