Sagged tours are expensive.

I live in Maine and tour unsupported in New England every summer.

Let's look at some options. You could fly in one town and fly out of another.
For example, fly into Burlington Vt and fly out of Portland or Bangor.

You could also fly into Portland and out of Bangor.

Or ride up the coast, rent a van in Bangor and drive back.

As far as the route goes, there are tons of options, depend on what interests you.

If you want tough... fly into Portland, ride to North Conway NH (just under 70 miles) and then up the Kancamangus to the closest motel. And then
to Burlington. Alternatively, after North Conway you could ride the extremely steep road that goes by Mt Washington. You might want to say in
Gorham after that. There is a hiker's hostel on the road which is nice.

I like to have a day off to relax and enjoy. So the first thing I do when planning a trip is pick that. This year it's Bar Harbor. Camden,Brunswick,Middlebury, Burlington and North Conway are all good for that. Bar Harbor, Burlington, and Camden are prob
the best.
