What people love about Coach / Bus Tours in East Coast USA
- Colours of New England
This was a terrific tour and I recommend it to everyone! The tour guide, Susanne was very knowledgeable and has a very dry wit (listen closely or you'll miss, and it's great!). Every place on the tour was a perfect example of any-and-every thing you would expect to see in New England. Expect to wake up early, see a lot and be home by sundown. Some of our fellow tourists chose to arrive a few days early, to see more of Boston (you only spend a day there, at the end) and I wish I had done that. Also, there is an extended 3-day tour of New York City, if you wish to add that onto your tour. If you have never been to NY, then I would recommend adding it. Thanks, AmericanTours International! P.S, "Good Morning, Dave!" (we love you)
- Great Eastern Cities
It was great. We has a lovely time. The tour director, Esther, was very experienced and knowledgeable. The driver, Mark, was very kind. The places covered was more than adequate and we saw/experienced a lot more than we expected
