Holiday Tours

Tips for the driver and guide weren't included in the tour price, so I handed those over day by day, though I can't recall the exact amount now. Having a guide along the whole route meant I didn't have to worry about the logistics myself.

Collin and Shawn both were extraordinary guides.only problem we faced was sitting in three seats van from Boston to Newyork.it didn’t have enough space for leg room.

The morning coach tour with a Blue Badge guide was informative. In the afternoon, I had tea at the Cellarium Cafe before exploring Westminster Abbey independently with the multimedia guide, seeing the Coronation Chair and royal tombs. A relaxed, well-paced day.

We stayed in a different city almost every night, so packing up and getting on the coach each morning got tiring. But the night in York was fine, and a morning walk along the old city walls made it feel worthwhile.

The tour started at 9am from Victoria Coach Station, and I liked having WiFi and USB chargers on the coach. We saw the Changing of the Guard in the morning, then I made my way to Westminster Pier independently for the Thames cruise, which was included. Lunch and gratuities weren't covered though.

Before the tour, I received a text messages confirming the guests and instruction where to meet and get picked up. Which is needed for the first time customer joining the group tour. Our tour guide Jason is very exceptional. He is knowledgeable, very patients and took care of the whole group during the tour. The driver of the bus forgot his name is also helpful to the group. Jason had provided me and my friend Uber ride since he cannot drop us off to our last stop. The tour itself is a dream come true specially the Niagara Falls experience. 6 days trip is must go tour. (Tour date experience October 3-8, 2026)

The five nights of hotels were included in the tour price, and even though we changed towns most days, my luggage stayed with the coach so I barely had to think about it. Breakfast was included one morning and I sorted out the rest myself, which I got used to.

The last day was mostly on the bus, and I glanced at the scenery passing through Albany. The ride back felt more tiring than the way there, probably because I was already worn out from the days before.

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.
