LOCATION HIGHLIGHTS
TRAVEL GURU SUMMARY
Driving is the best way to experience this fascinating area of the USA - its landscapes and historic villages. The trick is not to bite off more than you can chew - and to plan an itinerary that gives you time to relax and enjoy the different destinations en route rather than spending days on end in the car.
DONT MISS...
Head to the sand dunes in Cape Cod near Provincetown and sit on the sand while you enjoy a delicious lobster roll and watch the sun set.
