This tour was awesome! We live in NJ and our family from TX comes up for Christmas (nearly) every year so the group of 15 of us have to find things to do. Most of the time it includes a day or two in NYC - but always in the other borough! This year we decided to spend a 6 days tour in East Coast and it was amazing!
