QCT New York State of Mind Trip™

I have never been to New York and this trip will be one for my bucket list. We will get to savor the beauty of our country via motor coach from Charlotte and Mooresville, North Carolina, to Paramus, New Jersey where we will be staying at the quiet and quaint Comfort Suites Hotel for 3 nights and 4 days. This hotel is just across the Hudson River and is minutes away from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple.


Day one includes an all-American trip to the United States Military Academy in Orange County, New York, where we will be treated to a guided tour of the training facility which will include its role during the Revolutionary War, its famous history as well as graduates who helped shape our nation. Next, it’s off to a Dutch treat lunch and then to the home of former President Franklin D. Roosevelt in Hyde Park, New York – his hometown – where we will enjoy a guided one hour tour into the life of our nation’s longest-serving Commander-and-Chief. That evening, we will cap this exciting day with a wine social and exquisite dinner at the Grand Lux Café’ in Paramus, New Jersey, not too far from our hotel.
