Labor Day Weekend Tours

I spent a day walking through Central Park with an actor guide, visiting Bethesda Terrace from The Avengers and the Boathouse Cafe from When Harry Met Sally. It felt very immersive. Lunch wasn't included in the tour price, so I bought my own.

The two-hour open-air bus tour covered Beverly Hills and the Sunset Strip with lively narration. I learned a lot about LA's celebrity culture. It was a bit windy on the open top, but the photo views were great.

I had a wonderful experience on the 2-Day New Haven, Rhode Island, and Boston tour from New York, largely thanks to our outstanding tour guide, Qiaoming Lam! From the moment the trip started, Qiaoming set a high standard. He was exceptionally well-groomed and professional in appearance, greeted everyone warmly, and maintained a polite, respectful, and friendly tone throughout the entire journey. Beyond his professionalism, Qiaoming truly elevated the experience: Knowledgeable & Engaging: He provided clear, detailed historical context and fun facts about every stop—from Yale’s campus in New Haven to the historic streets of Boston and Rhode Island's coast. Exceptional Organization: Managing group logistics, timing, and rest stops across a multi-city itinerary can be tough, but he kept everything running smoothly and on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. Attentive & Helpful: He went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable, answered every question patiently, and provided great local recommendations for food and free-time exploration. If you are booking with TakeTours, request Qiaoming Lam if you can. He made the entire trip smooth, educational, and memorable!

On my winter visit, the first day was switched to the Corning Museum of Glass, and watching the live glassmaking demo was interesting. Still, without the gorge walk, the day felt a bit thin.

The tour was short and excellent. It covered everything that could be done in LA. Guide was informative and quite witty. He made suggestions for eating options as well. He was super helpful and made sure everyone was comfortable, especially as we were travelling with our infant. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent value—saved tons of hassle vs self-driving. Guide got us discounted Monterey Aquarium tickets and warned about Yosemite temperature swings. SF traffic was heavy but that's not their fault. Great trip overall!

The guide was a highlight - incredible knowledge from redwoods to Gold Rush history. Glacier Point view of Half Dome was epic! Bus had USB chargers and wifi. Perfect pace, not too rushed. Absolutely worth it!

Solo traveler friendly! Good rest stops, not tiring. SF stops had enough free time, Yosemite trail suitable for all. Driver and guide worked well together. Only downside: second day lunch spot was mediocre. Overall very satisfied.

Exceeded expectations! Yosemite's El Capitan and Bridalveil Fall were breathtaking. 17-Mile Drive was postcard-perfect. Guide was knowledgeable and even helped take photos. Hotel was clean and breakfast good. 5 stars!

Great value! Bus was comfy and the driver skilled. Yosemite day was well-organized hitting all highlights. Guide gave useful tips to avoid crowds. Only con: lunch time was a bit rushed. Still highly recommend!

I took the tour and we covered over 40 filming spots, from Carrie's brownstone to Buddakan. Lunch wasn't included, so I grabbed something on my own, but the flow was smooth and fans of the show will enjoy it.

The five-day route covered Niagara Falls, Toronto, Philadelphia, and DC, which felt packed but efficient. I was glad the Maid of the Mist and the Thousand Islands cruise were already included, so I didn't have to worry about buying tickets separately.

We took 2 took 2 days Niagara Falls trip from NY along with my 6 year old son we had lot of fun and enjoyed every minute without any headache. Accommodation was good. Sufficient information was provided before visiting the place.

I had a really great experience on this tour. Kevin communicated with us in both Mandarin and English and was extremely knowledgeable about the canyons we visited. He was also very friendly and accommodating throughout the trip, always making sure everyone was comfortable and was happy to answer any questions. The itinerary was well planned and his directions were easy to follow. Harry, our bus driver, was also very nice and helped make the long drives feel safe and comfortable. Overall, it was a really enjoyable tour and I would definitely recommend it.

We covered all the LA classics in one day—Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Farmers Market had plenty of options, though lunch was on us since meals weren't included. We were back at the hotel around 3 PM, which felt like a good pace.

Five days covered Niagara Falls, Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal—it was a packed schedule, but we hit the main sights in each city. I especially liked Parliament Hill in Ottawa; the architecture is impressive.

I had a 4 day trip to Washington DC, Niagara and Boston. Our tour guide Angie is very nice and patient with us. She managed and organized the tour very well. It was an amazing experience overall. I definitely recommend this tour to others. Probably we would have spent some more time in Philadelphia and Boston.

We took tour starting Wednesday (August 5) from Flushing, NY. The tour guide Judy was wonderful and very friendly and took personalized care of everybody. I had fallen a bit sick on the tour, she went to great lengths to make me comfortable, because of which i quickly recovered and went about the tour as planned. She is a great asset and systematic, gives clear-cut instructions, cautions people on what not to do and keeps track of everyone. Our second tour guide on the last day just for New York city Sean was equally wonderful and very skilled at driving in Manhattan roads on crowded summer weekends. Knows the city thoroughly and was very caring with clear instructions. One suggestion I would give is to include central park instead of Saint Patrick church. The church's architecture can be shown from outside.

The bus tour took us past the holiday lights and movie locations around New York, linking up spots like Rockefeller Center and Central Park. I especially liked the Central Park segment since it was featured in Serendipity. A guide was on board, and taxes were covered in the tour price, which made things easy.
