We are newly married and to spend some time together got this 12 days tour booked. The number of places we visited was amazing and I am thrilled that the tour operator took us to so many prominent places. I can very confidently say that we have seen most of America’s best places. The shopping at discount prices was really attractive and we both almost got rooted in the shopping outlet. The bus operator and the guide were good and interactive. The accommodation and food was also arranged perfectly. There was no room to complain and we recommend for 5 stars.

We went with our kids for this tour. We had booked it from our hometown, Malaysia. We planned to visit all these places and luckily found this tour operator with excellent reviews. Moreover, it is impossible for us to cover all these places in this short period of 12 days. The tour organizers did an excellent job of giving us a good tour. The shopping outlet had most of the branded items and one thing was disappointing was we were not prepared for this shopping. The tour operators could have given us a hint and we could have come for shopping rightly funded.
