We take a trip back to the 60s to Boston and Cape Cod to explore the villages, beaches, and family homes that inspired John F Kennedy. While following in his footsteps we stay at intimate hotels, visit several of the 15 unique towns that make up Cape Cod, discover arts and crafts shops, fishing harbours and visit the National Seashore, a park and wildlife sanctuary created by Kennedy to protect the coastal eco-systems. Stops include: the Kennedy Compound at Hyannis Port; JFK Library and Museum in Boston with its very comprehensive exhibit on his life; dinner in his booth at the Union Oyster House; and Omni Parker House, where he announced his intention to run for the Senate and where he proposed to Jackie.
