The 8 Best Cultural Tours in New Jersey, United States

November 20, 2021 Marlin Saiz

Whether you are looking for sun-drenched beaches or outdoor activities in beautiful countryside, New Jersey has plenty to offer. Those who love the great outdoors should head for the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, which runs along the Delaware River for forty miles. Here you can go rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking or fishing, or simply admire the stunning waterfalls. There is a huge range of hiking trails to choose from as well as historic sites to visit. In winter, you can enjoy cross-country skiing near Blue Mountain Lakes, and birdwatchers might be lucky enough to catch sight of bald eagles. If you are looking for a change, visit one of New Jersey's eleven lighthouses that are open to public, such as the one in Cape May. For art and history enthusiasts, New Jersey State Museum in Trenton has historic artifacts and American fine art from the nineteenth century to the present day as well as a Planetarium.

I booked a full day tour with Victor and it was amazing. His knowledge of the area and professionalism made him the perfect guide. He was on time and has sparkly clean and comfortable transportation. We went down the coast to Hout Bay where we stopped and took a short boat ride to see seals. From there we took Chapman's Peak Drive and stopped along the way at lookout areas to take some photos. Another stop was at an ostrich farm. It was fun feeding the ostriches and they had a very nice gift shop. We arrived at Cape Point and rode the Flying Dutchmen Funicular to the top. The views were amazing. On the way back to Cape Town we stopped at Boulder Beach to see the penguins and had a lovely meal in Simon's Town. I enjoyed every part of the tour and highly recommend booking his tours.

Really excellent, go at your own pace tour! Kevin is a great guide! One of my favorite highlights-I am a fan of the TV show House, and the opening credits were shot at the Princeton campus so it was really cool that Kevin pointed that out. If you love history and have free time to spare in Princeton, I would definitely recommend this tour!

Can, getting to know the city, its architecture, history and traditions, be interesting and not boring at all? Well, difficult, specially if we talk about San Sebastian (Basque Country, Spain) so beautiful city, that just see it leaves breathless. When I came to live to San Sebastian in 2006 I was totally impressed by the beauty of this town, however I did not discovered the soul of the city until I experienced the unrivalled city tour with Ikusnahi this summer. We have been walking around the city with Ania, who explained everything in such amazing and interesting way, natural and very funny at the same time! She left space for open discussion for you to begin to discover for yourself, in an imperceptible way, that you know the city more deeply, understanding the local culture and people much better.
