This tour of the Eastern part of the USA and Canada really changed my perception of both these countries. I would think I have seen, tasted and heard all about these countries before even setting foot on their soils but experiencing these nations in person has enhanced and even changed what I thought I knew. Starting with the three nights in New York, journeying north through New England and into Quebec and venturing East through Ottawa, Toronto to the breath-taking Niagara Falls and going down south into Mid-Western America through Detroit, Pittsburgh and eventually arriving in Washington DC, this trip had it all and it's an experience I won't forget! If you are curious about this part of the North American continent, then I would recommend going on this tour. You will be in safe hands with Larry the knowledgeable and friendly tour director and our driver Leo was the ultimate professional motor coach operator! Good times and good company were had in this part of the world!
Although I had a cold the whole trip it was a wonderful experience with a patience group with a bus that was very late on day 1 and also some other times, with a driver who skip red lights, sway on the road and driving uneven? Wonder why we had to change buses? On the bright side, the hotels was spacious and comfortable, but our carpet at Niagara falls Hotel was smelling wet and not convenient to get luggage to the elevator. To have dinner scheduled at some overnights would have been very helpful, because sometimes the day ends exhausting and not much time to get dinner. We want to suggest to hand out evaluation forms in advance to remember the specific stops and hotels in question. Although our tour leader acknowledge to be of a certain character, we found him to be very helpful in his own way and did a good job. The positive experiences outnumbered the negatives by far, thus we will certainly go again with Expat!! We thank you.
The East Coast of the USA right up to Canada is a must see, its like candy to your eyes. Every rest stop to every place you stay for the night is filled with stunning views and interesting things to see and do. You will visit places that you will want to return too some day as there is just so much to experience. This tour is made extra special by one of the best and most informative tour guides I have ever had the privilege in travelling with in Mr Larry Schwarz. Larry is the information guru of this area and will go out of his way to ensure everybody is having a great time. I could not recommend this tour any more highly, in fact it was that good, I just did the tour for the 2nd time.
