Golden Bus Tours provided us with a lot of information before we went on this 1 day tour. I knew I had to carry a lot of warm of clothes for me and the kids since temperatures at the peak were very low. I thank them for this small piece of information since it saved me a lot of trouble and doctor days. The trip was fun and enjoyable, the guide was very approachable and the prices were reasonably affordable.

This tour organized by Golden Bus Tours was remarkable. Our guide had a vast amount of knowledge about the Mount Washington Weather Station, the trip to the top was thrilling and the view from the top was remarkable. Thank you Golden Bus Tours. I would love to do this again.

I went on this trip with my 11 year old son. It was a very simple excursion filled with loads of fun and information. We loved visiting the small museum. Had an adrenaline rush riding up the mountains peak, soaked in the panoramic views seen from the mountains tips. Fruit picking was the most favorite part of the trip as I got to have fun and bond with my son. I totally loved it and look forward to more memorable moments courtesy of Golden Bus.

A quick and highly convenient way to explore Mount Washington. Went on a lazy Sunday and had a pleasant time. If there is something I like Golden Bus Tours, is that they have small inexpensive packages for people looking to save pennies or simply don’t have time for the elaborate excursions. They don’t compromise on quality despite their price; have comfortable buses and very knowledgeable guides.

I like to travel with my wife and kids whenever i can get work leaves in a year and I always book my trips with Golden Bus Tours. They have never disappointed, be it easy booking of tours to stunning nourishment and going by fundamental attractions, their trips have everything in them. What's best is the way that these visits are never a sham; they generally arrange more than your cash's worth in these outings.

Being an impeccable area, this was the best trip to Mt. Washington I have ever been to. How the tour guide dealt with the entire trip in a manner that we never felt like we were being hurried and how despite everything he secured our visit to all the planned locations in the given time was past me. With the most moderate rates in this sham economy, I completely loved this entire visit. Doubtlessly arranging visits with you all once more.

I planned a one day trip with Golden Bus Tours for me and my wife on her 32nd birthday. Travelling from Boston to New England & Mt. Washington, we travelled most of the main attractions. There was a tour guide with us too who was really helpful and informative. Other than that the bus ride was luxurious with air-conditioned buses. All in all this was an amazing bonding trip with my wife which didn’t leave a dent in our pockets in terms of money.

it was much convenient for us to begin our trip from my hometown Boston. It was a lovely day on the bus since our first destination was to tour historic cog railway. We enjoyed our time on the bus trip. Great team!
