I had the best experience as first time traveler with a tour in the United States. I used to travel by myself but this time since I was traveling with my parents, I decided to try the tour. This tour with all the stuff that came with it was an amazing experience which I have to first mention the tour guide. Very organized and completely professional.

My kids had been on this tour and they had a great time they said. The tour operator ensured that my kids are safe and the guide took personal care. The 4 days tour included Potomac River, Washington DC, Philadelphia and New York. I recommend this bus tour packages.

This was my first time travelling with a tour company. I must say it was a very well organized tour at a reasonable price. When you arrive to the hotel, you don't have to do registration, they do everything for you. The guides were very nice. They offer you more options during the tour for more money, but it's your option if you take them. I recommend this tour and this company.

The tour was good, but we spent so less time at the locations. The locations were beautiful, scenic, and of course historically important, but we should have spent more time there, so at least we could take proper pictures and roam around a little. The feel each of the building gave was different, too bad we couldn’t spend more time there.
