Getting to Norwich

Norwich Vermont is located along the Connecticut River just across from Hanover, NH, home to Dartmouth College.  It is a beautiful small town of approx. 3500 people. Norwich is home to many lovely shops including Dan & Whits Vermont General Store, Norwich Bookstore, and King Arthur Flour Bakers Store and Cafe.  We look forward to welcoming you to Norwich and wanted to share some helpful travel hints as you plan your trip.

For those of you hoping an airplane to the wedding there are two main airport options, Boston Logan (BOS) and Manchester, NH (MHT).  Burlington, VT, is also a great small airport to head towards. If you choose Burlington, plan on a rental car as shuttle options are scarce. What Burlington lacks in shuttle options, it makes up for in proximity to the Ben and Jerry's factory in Waterbury.

For our midwestern friends (Chicago, Terre Haute, Kansas, etc) I encourage you to check out the Southwest Airlines as they often fly direct into both Manchester and Boston Logan.  From all points west, Kimo and I frequent the non-stop options on JetBlue and Alaska Airlines but airline options abound.
