I love flowers so when I heard about the flower show being organized in Philadelphia I planned this tour with my family. We opted for GoldenBusTours because I have heard from my friends about the quality service of this company. Well I am certainly impressed because we got the best service that anybody could imagine and ask of a bus tour company. $43 and we were able to enjoy the largest flower show in Philadelphia including pick and drop from our own location as well. Superb!

1 day tour was good, a real stress buster tour. It takes you out of your regular routine and the flower show that was indoors gives a calm feeling. The colorful flowers were simply magical. The 360 degree view also gave a clear view of the city and the museum had such lots that I would surely go on this tour again so that I see the flowers and the museum again. Good tour operator, all good.

I wanted to see the largest flower show that was being held in Philadelphia and for that we booked a bus tour with GoldenBusTours. The company gives great travel services that you can think of. Their buses are in amazing condition and the drivers drive well. No complaints from my side at all. I have had a great experience traveling with GoldenBusTours and I’d recommend this company to all those who want to travel with peace.

A birthday gift, to my brother from me, as he is a student. I want him to be happy for my thoughtful act. He was really and gave me a hug on return. This 1 day tour bought us close as friends. He loves drawing and was drawn by the indoor flower show that was a part of the tour package.

A friend of mine recommended this tour package and I am extremely grateful to him. I took my wife for one day tour to many places including Philadelphia and New Jersey. Our guide was amazing. He took us around and was patient with us even when we wanted to stay longer. The hotels were comfortable too. I would recommend it to my friends

The one day tour I booked was in a hurry and I should have got it for the weekend, but it did not get as this tour was available for a weekday and so be it. l liked the tour as I wanted to visit the flower show and it was beautiful.

I enjoyed the 1 day tour to Philadelphia and they indeed covered the most important indoor flower show, besides giving the view of the city. The museum also was good and had a huge collection. There could have been a break between lunch and other places for a tea break was my opinion. I just missed that a bit and so by the end of the day, it was tiring for me. Rest apart, the tour is fabulous.
