The last stop before sailing back to New York is Newport, R.I. As with the rest of the shore excursions, you'll have about eight hours for sightseeing. The seaside city on the southern tip of Aquidneck Island is famous for its glorious envy-inspiring mansions like The Breakers, The Elms, and Marble House.
Princess Cruises also offers a similar trip in September and October, only with a reversed itinerary, starting from $678 for seniors.
