You can also head to Atlantic City, NJ or Ocean City, MD, with a small Amtrak connection.

The options: Choose a coach or business class seat, or reserve one of the Viewliner Bedrooms + enjoy dinner in the dining car if you’re feeling extra fancy. 🍸 Take a closer look inside the rooms with Amtrak’s virtual tours.
