it is really the best tour of my life since we had the wonderful time at the Time Square on New Year. Just because of the quality service by the bus service and my friends, the tour has been the best experience. We stayed in decent hotels, thanks to our travel host for being appropriately friendly to us. Wonderful New Year’s Eve, I couldn’t thank enough.

We were already looking for the Times Square party, and thanks to this bus trip we not only attended the New Year Party but also toured the best places. Some of the best were Niagara Falls, Harvard Campus, Empire Building Observatory NY. It was quite exhausting, nevertheless much fun!
