Cape Cod & the Islands
This trip is currently full. Please email alumni@tntech.edu to be added to a waiting list.
July 26 - August 1, 2025
Cape Cod, located in eastern Massachusetts, is among New England’s favorite summer vacation destinations and it thrives on tourism, beautiful ocean beaches and small unique businesses. Travelers come to lose themselves amongst endless miles of windswept seashore, dune-studded landscapes, inshore forests and historic sights. Enjoy your first night in exciting Boston and then head out for 5 nights at one hotel on ‘The Cape’ to experience its beauty and history. Visit amazing Boston, mansion-filled Newport, RI, Provincetown, a Cranberry Bog and ferry to the two most scenic and famous Islands off ‘The Cape,’ Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket.
Today, Boston is the economic and cultural hub of New England yet retains its rich history in education, arts, culture, cuisine and architecture. Boston is one of America’s oldest cities, first incorporated as a town in 1630 with a rich economic and social history. The Cape’s recorded history starts with the Plymouth Pilgrims who first set foot in the New World at the tip of Cape Cod in 1620. En route from Boston to Cape Cod visit Plymouth Plantation, and see Plymouth Rock and the Mayflower II, recently renovated for the 400th Anniversary of the historic voyage. On another day visit a traditional Cranberry Bog, see scenic Lighthouses and travel to the tip of Cape Cod to visit charming Provincetown. The island of Martha’s Vineyard is only seven miles off the coast of Massachusetts, but a world all its own. ‘The Vineyard’ is a true island as there are no bridges from the mainland, and most visitors arrive by ferry or plane. Explore the seaside city of Newport, RI famous for its historic mansions and an upscale downtown filled with cobblestone streets and brick sidewalks. The sight of the island of Nantucket coming into view from the bow of a ferry is a stirring one as lines of foaming breakers crash against vast stretches of sand on the shore while 17th-century architecture dots the downtown horizon. Enjoy these wonderful New England sights during your 7-day adventure to Boston and ‘The Cape.’

San Antonio Holiday
December 4 - 8, 2025
This short holiday vacation is highlighted by a 4-night stay in San Antonio, the Alamo City. The old-Spanish flavor, multicultural heritage, numerous parks and plazas, and the Riverwalk make San Antonio one of America’s most intriguing cities. Along the San Antonio River is the bustling Riverwalk, or Paseo Del Rio, with tree-lined footpaths, craft shops, galleries, a mall, restaurants and nightspots. The Riverwalk is pedestrian-only as it sits below the automobile street level.
A city tour kicks off your San Antonio adventure. Visit the Alamo with time to wander through the historic landmark. Next enjoy the docudrama, “The Price of Freedom,” which recounts the battle of the Alamo at the IMAX Theatre. Complete your day with a leisurely Riverwalk Cruise where you’ll learn more about the history of this fascinating city.
Another exciting day takes you north to the beautiful and unique capital of Texas, Austin, for a city tour and visits to the LBJ Library & Museum at the University of Texas and the State Capitol Building. On Day 4, travel into the Hill Country of Texas and take in the scenery. The first stop is in the quaint and historic German settlement of Fredericksburg. Explore the downtown area and visit the National Museum of the Pacific War. Then sample a few wines of the Texas Hill Country, a growing wine region. On the last evening, experience the Fiesta de las Luminarias where thousands of candles illuminate the Riverwalk for the magical holiday season.
