Top 3 cultural & heritage things to do in White Mountains

1. Alexandria catacombs, Citadel and Library tour

Full-day private tour with an Egyptologist—visit the Citadel, Library, and catacombs with skip-the-line access and comfortable transportation.

2. Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad train rides

Experience scenic train rides through New Hampshire’s Lakes Region, with routes between Meredith, Weirs Beach, Lakeport, and Laconia, all within a historic railway setting.

“This was an excellent option, even with the rain. It was a relaxing and comfortable experience. We enjoyed a nostalgic train ride while chatting and snacking, taking in the lake views. The seats and table were cozy, but the frequent loud train horn sounds disrupted our conversations during the first half of the trip, happening almost every 3-4 minutes. I also think it would have been better if the snack car had arrived earlier. These are minor complaints, just worth noting.”— AgnesBoston

3. Self-guided audio driving tour of Kancamagus Scenic Byway

A scenic drive through the White Mountains—self-guided audio tour sharing history and insights, available for unlimited use on one device.

“Downloading the app and exploring the night before was effective. It felt almost magical that the program tracked our location so accurately. I also appreciated the option to replay some of the stops.”— Carol_C
