Actually, my kids showed me this reasonable deal on their computer by GoldenBusTours.com. When bought the tickets and began to depart New York, I realized something that I might not go well. My children got really bored because of the slow bus service and we couldn’t be able to enjoy at a majority of location such as Hershey Park, and Dorney Park. The hotel was just fine. Bad experience!
Xing Fu
We took this 2-day tour with GoldenBus. We enjoyed every place specially the Hershey Park. The best thing that I liked about the tour was that we got enough time to see each place on our own. We weren’t rushed by the driver. We got good accommodation as well. We had an awesome time on the tour. Recommended? Yes, Definitely!
Jayden
Amazing tour it was. Perfectly planned and well executed. GoldenBusTours did a great job with accommodation and bus tour for us. The driver and the guide were too much fun together. We had a great time. My kids loved the Hershey’s Park. We’re definitely coming in during our next vacations to take another tour with the company because we really liked its service and its affordability. I’ll recommend GoldenBusTours to all because its worth the deal.
Ryan
What I like about GoldenBusTours is that it is a very well organized company. The tour was really easy to book, very much affordable I must say and everything went as stated in the plan. We had a great time exploring Dorney Park, Hershey’s Park and NY. The accommodation for the overnight stay was also very basic but really good. I will definitely recommend GoldenBusTours to people who need an affordable tour but want to enjoy everything too.
Smith
What a surprise, a 2 day bus tour that is well planned and organized. Never expected this perfection and only if the guide had more information it would have been good. Of course he had knowledge, but I expected more depth info and that was missing.
Aarush
I with my sister and brother in law went on this trip and we certainly do not regret choosing Golden Bus for this trip. It was a thrilling and exciting guided bus tour. We were provided with the detailed tour to each and every place mentioned in itinerary. I have recommended this tour to my friends.
