A visit to Essex, The Perfect Small American Town, will include lunch at the Griswald Inn, one of the oldest, continuously operated inns in the country, AND a trip on the Essex Steam Train & Riverboat Ride for a 2 ½ hour narrated excursion through the Connecticut River Valley highlighting historic landmarks during the Fall foliage season.
To make the travel time more relaxing, we will be crossing Long Island Sound on the Port Jefferson Ferry rather than driving around.
