New England’s miles of sandy beaches, majestic coasts, and rolling surf invite relaxation. The Islands of New England tour spends eight days exploring New England’s charms, from the cobblestone streets of Nantucket to a dry harvest cranberry bog. Step back in time at Plimoth Plantation to sample traditional recipes from that period, learn some Pilgrim etiquette and enjoy a Thanksgiving feast where you’ll learn to “eat like a Pilgrim.” In Provincetown, the choice is yours – set out on a whale watch cruise or embark on a scenic adventure through the iconic sand dunes of the Cape.

Visit Boston and Providence, the Gilded Age mansions of Newport, the lively artist colony of Provincetown, and the beautiful islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Complete your New England experience as you indulge in a traditional seafood and lobster feast.

The “land of fire and ice” is a place of many wonders, including the rare opportunity to see the spectacular aurora borealis – or northern lights. This tour will bring you on a search for that once-in-a-lifetime moment. Take an exhilarating evening northern lights cruise.

On three evenings in Vik - on foot, or with the assistance of our motor coach and driver - you will venture out away from the light pollution to where the views of the sky are ideal (the northern lights can be viewed only in clear skies). Travel to the “Golden Circle,” home to many of Iceland’s most renowned natural wonders. Spend time at Thingvellir National Park, the nation’s most historic area. Gaze at the spectacular Gullfoss waterfall – one of the world’s most incredible cascades. At the Lava Exhibition Center, learn about Iceland’s volcanic history and its impact on daily life. Explore Skógar Museum and see traditional turf-built homes. Walk on a black volcanic sand beach. See Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon filled with floating icebergs. Relax in the warm, mineral-rich water of the natural geothermal pool, the Blue Lagoon. Spend your evenings gazing at the night sky in search of the elusive and dazzling northern lights.

Greenwood Dog Park Membership Rules & Etiquette: Use of the Greenwood Parks Dog Parks are not a right, but is a privilege. Please do not allow unacceptable or irresponsible behavior to ruin the experience for others. The Greenwood Parks Dog Parks strive to provide a fun environment for owners and their dogs. By using the Dog Parks, users must understand that they assume all responsibility and liability for the risks of unleashing their dog(s) in this facility. Greenwood Parks Dog Parks are not a supervised facility. Users therefore are required to abide by the rules and etiquette at all times while on the premises. Owners and individuals accompanying them use the facility entirely at their own risk and that of their dogs. The future of these facilities and others like it depends on members behaving responsibly and obeying all the rules. Canines and their owners are expected to behave with common courtesy and respect for the property as well as other park users. We realize that owner socialization is a great added value to the experience, but please remember that the dog owner’s first priority is the proper supervision of his/her dog.
