Hi

my partner and I are planing our trip in April to the states. We are staying in NYC for 4 nights then we would like to hire a car and drive up North to the New England states .

My question is :

Is April still cold up North and do we need a 4WD?

What are the most scenic routes for this time of year as we are interested in Nature.

Can someone help with pointers where to stay

we need to cover some distance as well

Cheers

Yes, it can be chilly, usually not freezing, sometimes down right warm. No, you don%26#39;t need 4 wheel drive unless you are heading into the mountains of Maine, New Hampshire or Vermont. Scenic routes depend upon whether you want coastline or mountains, or just inland hills. I would get maps of each state and just stay off the main interstates which are all efficient and pretty boring. Otherwise, you will probably like just about any route- again figure out what kind of environment you want to visit. There is alot of driving between and within the NE states and I would recommend looking up B%26amp;Bs if you can afford them. Prices that time of year should be very affordable though as people are still heading south on vacation that time of year, not north.

thanks karrieb for your info

when you say B%26amp;B are expensive... how much are we talking about? here in Australia they vary between AU$100 and AU$200 is that about the same in USA???

we are driving up to Boston as well, and I am worried that if we stay in the city then parking the car is gonna be expensive any recommendation ...eg B%26amp;B around the city with easy public transpont in to see city attractions or is parking accessable and affordable in Boston?

We are planning two days for boston any must do visits???

Cheers
