You step off the bus in the humid breath of a New York morning and the city already has you moving—Grand Central’s vaulted ceiling drips light, and the driver’s voice clips instructions with practiced efficiency. Over seven days you’ll trade this urban pulse for the grave columns of Philadelphia’s Independence Park, the marble-lined avenues of Washington D.C., the roar of Niagara’s cataracts, and the brick-lined streets of historic Boston. It’s a compact sweep of America’s firsts, threaded together by highways, ferry decks, and short walks that put you face-to-face with places that shaped the country.
