Discounted Day Trips and Getaways

By ctapts

amtrak-trainOne of the best things about Connecticut is its proximity to so many great places. This holiday season, residents can travel with ease and avoid stress and traffic by taking advantage of fantastic travel deals and packages.

Amtrak has lowered their Northeast Regional fares and is now offering 25% off tickets booked 14 days in advance. For example, Boston is only a few hours from Stamford by train, and with the discounted rates, fares start at $41 each way. Or, Philadelphia fares start at $36 each way, Washington, D.C. fares start from $54 each way and Providence, RI can be seen starting at $33 each way.

The Metro North railroad is also offering specials on train fares, package deals with Broadway shows (including the Radio City Christmas Spectacular), world-renowned casinos and other great attractions in the New York area.

Now is a great time to take advantage of these great deals so that you can spend a day away from the stress of the holidays. Luckily for those living in the luxury downtown Stamford apartments, the Townhouse, the Stamford train station is only a few blocks away. The Stamford train station is also convenient to Hoyt Bedford and Morgan Manor, making a day trip or weekend getaway that much more easier to plan.
