Fall Foliage Tours 2018 - Boston & New England

See New England's Fall Foliage at its Best!
New England fall foliage - Concord, MA, stop on foliage tours from Boston
New England stone wall and colorful autumn leaves in Concord MA, west of Boston - Favorite stop on foliage tours

Boston fall foliage tours take you to see brilliantly colored leaves in some of the most beautiful parts of the New England countryside near the city. 

The advantage to taking one of these New England fall foliage tours is that someone else does the driving. 

Booking.com

You get to relax and enjoy the spectacular scenery, take as many photos as you please, and explore selected locations.

Entertaining, knowledgeable guides, pick-up at selected hotels, and lots of photo opportunities give you the right mix of fun and convenience.

These tours are very popular and book up in advance - so to be sure of getting your preferred dates, do book early. 

Boston Insider Tip:   Fall Foliage Tours

Of course you see gorgeous foliage on these tours - but you also experience the scenic countryside outside of the city.  If you're visiting Boston during September, October, or even early November, don't miss the chance to discover the beauty of New England!

Fall Foliage Sightseeing Tour from Boston

Fall Foliage tour from Boston

Vibrant reds and oranges blaze across New England's countryside as you tour through the rolling hills up northwest of Boston to picturesque New Hampshire villages. 

A delicious lunch in an old Yankee tavern, a visit to an apple orchard, and views of beautiful Colonial churches, farms, and village greens show you the intoxicating beauty of New England.  

If you've never seen this part of New England before, you owe it to yourself to spend a day immersed in the seasonal colors and tranquil landscapes of this unique part of the country.  (And if you've ever wondered why those of us who live here put up with the cold winters, the beautiful places you'll see on this tour will show you why we do!)

Seasonal tour: September to October.

Although not all of these tours specialize fall foliage, you'll see plenty of color when you take them during fall months.

Self-Guided Fall Foliage Tour from Boston

Tour the New England coastline from Boston to Maine

Plan your own fall foliage tour - rent a Zipcar for the day, and take the coastal route north from Boston along Route 1A. 

At Beverly, detour onto Route 127 East to enjoy picturesque Manchester-by-the-Sea, Gloucester, and Rockport, and then pick up Route 133 and head north through Ipswich where you'll turn back onto Route 127 again. 

Go for a walk along New Hampshire's Hampton Beach State Park. 

Once you reach Maine (shown in photo), start looking for a road-side clam shack.  Stop for a lobster roll and enjoy the gorgeous contrast between the blue of the Atlantic Ocean and brilliant coastal foliage. 

Life is good!
