The tour operator provides me with the opportunity to see and experience the best of what many places have to offer, without the hassle of independantly looking for things to do or the expense of booking hotels etc. The tour(though fast pace at times) is good, however the highlight of my trip was the time spent at the Niagra falls. I am unable to express through words the feelings of joy and amazement while there. I would definitely recommend the boat ride into the falls. Larry(I.e the tour guide) and Leo(the bus driver) worked well together and were very personable and attentive to our needs. Larry is very organized and strived to be as detailed with all aspects of the tour. Alternatively, there are some aspects to the tour that should be amended. There are some travel days that are extremely too long(I.e. DC). 11 pm(having being up and on the road from 7:30), is far too late getting back to the hotel. Also the 2 hour stop in downtown Detroit should be assessed as there's not much to do there therefore, lots of time are being spent sitting and waiting for the return of the bus. Another issue I had was the fact that expat did not make sufficient effort in ensuring that the food stops tended to the needs of the vegetarians on the bus. The welcome dinner at dicks and the stop at cracker barrel did not account for the vegetarians, therefore leaving fast food as the most prominent food selections. This information was requested prior to the trip, so I'm of the view that this should have been sufficiently accounted for. Also, we were very disappointed with the "thank you token(I.e. a key chain)" received at the end of the trip. I understand that the US tours are fairly new, however, the operator, as a company is not new. In fact, I have been on a european tour with the company and we received a bag full of items branded with the tour operator's name....with the most important to me, being the passport book with stickers. I was really looking forward to getting a passport with stickers
We so enjoyed every minute of our tour with Ryan. He introduced us to art that normally we would just pass by. Everything about the tour was well organized. I just can't say enough. It was a great price as well. We will use your service whenever possible. Thank you for offering this!
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!
