What people love about touring East Coast USA solo
- New England's Fall Foliage (Classic)
Tour director was fabulous. On top of everything and very flexible for needed adjustments.
- Niagara Falls, Washington DC, Philadelphia & Amish Country 4D/3N (from New York)
Wonderful trip, the guide was very nice and everything flowed perfectly well. We experienced the scenic tunnels and Niagara fall look amazing!
- Fall Colours of New England
The tour experiences, excellent work by tour director Pam and most of the hotels were wonderful. Having grown up in the east, now living in the west, I loved seeing the autumn leaves and delightful small towns. Overall, this tour was a bit too strenuous for me at the age of 81 and with arthritic knees.
