BLT Accommodation

We use a combination of hostels, hotels and cabins on the Northeastern BLT. Most cabins are multi-share rooms sleeping 4 to 6 people with shared facilities and hostel nights are generally arranged on a single sex, multi-share basis, subject to availability. Where possible we will keep the group together and try to accommodate couples; however twin rooms cannot be guaranteed. A sleeping bag is not required on this trip.

Private Departures

Why not arrange your own TrekAmerica departure? For groups of 8 or more, we can offer private departures on any of our published itineraries enabling friends, families or organizations to enjoy our classic "Trek" style of travel at special rates. Although tours will run as per our standard itinerary shown here, slight modifications may be considered and dates can be chosen to suit your needs. (Subject to seasonal/operational restrictions). So contact us today and start planning your own adventure.

Flexible Itinerary

Our routes have been carefully chosen to include the best night stops and highlights. However, as local conditions and passenger requests vary, no two trips will ever be the same. With the guidance of your Trek Leader you may modify certain nightstops and highlights to give a truly unique experience!

Itinerary update

Departures between 01 September and 31 December will spend 1 night in Toronto and 2 nights in Stowe. This will allow for more time to enjoy fall colours in Sept-Oct and winter sports in Nov-Dec.

Local Payments - All meals paid individually in local restaurants.

• Day: 1 New York Area & Ithaca

  Situated by Cayuga Lake, largest of the Finger Lakes, this town has a young-at-heart buzz to it, thanks to its plentiful students. Taste the wine and cider samplings of this rebound region or take a short hike to one of the most popular waterfalls in New York.
  Accommodation: Budget Lodging included

• Day: 2-3 Toronto

  Glimpse the crashing Niagara Falls and make the last few paces into Canada across nearby Rainbow Bridge. No freestanding structure on earth stands taller than the CN Tower, so get up and gawp down over this pretty city by Lake Ontario. Browse trendy stores and cosy cafes on College and Queens Street, and don't be too surprised to see an A-lister: TO (that's Toronto, Ontario) is Canada's answer to Hollywood.
  Accommodation: Budget Lodging included

• Day: 4-5 Montreal

  With more French speakers than anywhere outside of Paris, expect a little European flair. Museums, galleries, eateries and clubs mix a cocktail of the best bits from both continents. Don't miss out on the "Underground City" including 30km devoted to all things retail, or adventurous jet-boating!
  Accommodation: Budget Lodging included

• Day: 6 Stowe

  During the winter, this 'Ski Capital of the East' puts on an incredible winter spread, but remains a highlight with hiking, biking and swimming during summer months within the same mountain range. Stowe isn't complete without a stop by the Ben and Jerrry's ice cream factory! You Chunky Monkey!
  Accommodation: Budget Lodging included

• Day: 7-8 Boston

  Here in 'Beantown' relive the revolution along the Freedom Trail and explore Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall. Later perhaps a bite to eat in an Italian North End trattoria, a seasonal brew in an authentic Irish pub and your best dance moves in a lively, late-night hangout.
  Accommodation: Budget Lodging included

• Day: 9 New York Area

  We head back towards the 'City that never sleeps'. This tour is not scheduled to spend any time in New York City so make sure you book extra hotel nights and explore the sights and sounds of the Big Apple on your own. Splurge along Fifth Ave, hit the top of the Empire State Building, or soak up the trendy, laidback vibe of Greenwich Village before heading home. Now, that's what you call a storybook ending.
  
  Tour ends at approx 17:00 hrs in the New York Area on day 9.
  
  Note: This tour uses budget hostels chosen for their proximity to city centres. Rooms will be dormitory-style multi-share with separate quarters for men and women. All hostels provide a blanket and pillow so a sleeping bag is not required on this tour.
