Experience the beauty, feel the history and taste the vintages in a region vastly known for its pristine lakes, unspoiled forests and dotted with vine-covered hills. This is the Finger Lakes Region and waiting to be explored.

Day 1: To Waterloo, NY
Today our journey crosses the
1000 Islands Bridge and continues through the rolling hills of Upstate New York to the picturesque Finger Lakes Region. We will continue on to Waterloo and check into the Holiday Inn for the next three nights. Tonight enjoy a relaxing and leisurely dinner at the hotel.

Day 2: Seneca Lake Loop, NY
Enjoy a delicious breakfast this morning at the hotel. Today we depart for a full day of looping around Seneca Lake, the deepest lake. We’ll make a stop at Watkins Glen Gorge known as “the land of the backyard waterfalls.” Deep in the rock-wall, this canyon is a natural walkway bringing you within a few feet of the gorge. Experience waterfalls, cascades and grottoes. Our journey continues on to historical Corning for shopping and lunch along charming Market Street. This tree-lined street has over 100 shops, outlets, restaurants, and three hot glass studios, all remarkably intact in late 19th century commercial architecture. Then, we will visit the Corning Museum of Glass, New York States third largest tourist attraction and a one-of-a-kind experience. Later this afternoon enjoy a tasting of some fine vintages at Glenora Winery, one of the most picturesque wineries, before arriving at the historical Belhurst Castle, overlooking Seneca Lake, for a delicious dinner. Experience the romance of the past with the comforts of the present in an elegant, yet relaxed atmosphere. (B,D)

Enjoy leisure time for lunch at Wegman’s in Ithaca. We’ll make a brief picture stop at Taughannock Falls, a beautiful 215-foot waterfall.
