Being a regular customer every summer of these great bus tour, I’m glad to admit that this time we took the longest tour which was about a week but it was jam-packed with top-notch places. We already saw quite a lot in our country area, therefore this time we headed towards the Toronto city, which was lovely to explore, the thousand-island stop was absolutely amazing, the small islands with abundant history just says a lot through their historic heritage. Montreal was also great but we had more time there we could have enjoyed quite more than ever. Thanks for this journey, especially the hotels, always the best.

I was visiting United States from Australia; this was my first time anywhere abroad. I took this tour which seems like a good deal in terms of money. This tour features pretty much all the major cities in East Coast with in-depth tour. It was pretty great! I enjoyed a lot. Highly Recommended!

The bus came right on time to pick us up from our hometown Brooklyn. Then, they drove us to the Philly, DC, and finally, we arrived at the Niagara Falls. I would like to mention the Hornblower Niagara Cruise experience which totally enthralled us to its stunning views of the falls and similar. Visiting the nearby Canadian cities was a great idea, we entered the Ottawa city where saw the Parliament Building, and thehistoric town of Montreal just let us discovered a lot of the region’s history and heritage. Lovely time on board.

Starting the journey from New York, the bus group headed to so many world-class places, mentioning the Thousand Island cruise, Toronto City Tour & cruise, Washington DC Tour. Wish we could reverse time and began enjoying this journey again, we took a memorable photograph with the backdrops of White House Building and the US Capitol. Niagara Falls is the place where we had the best fun time especially experiencing the cruise there that totally took our breaths away. Wonderful bus tour with wonderful people and services.

At first, I was worried if we are going to stop for food because there was nothing mention about it, but as we experience the journey, our group discovered the food is not much of a big deal in this luxury tour, we had plenty of amazing stops and the bus tour person was being nice and friendly o every passenger on board and that that made our trip memorable. The French dinner in Quebec was delicious, as well as all the destination we get to visit on the course of our bus trip.

I was going through websites and suddenly happened to go through Golden bus website. The numbers of packages were many and this caught my interest. This was a 7 day tour to so many places and all were important. I liked all the places mentioned and so I went with this plan and schedule.
