My Rating

Fantastic trip. The tour guide Josef and driver Marcus were both fantastic made the trip what it was. Niagara Falls well what can you say but WOW an opportunity I am glad I didn't miss. Would definately recomend it to other people in fact I already have. The hotel we stayed in was fantastic, Super 8, breakfast though just passable. all in all Excellent

My Rating

This was a very good tour, the only thing we found was that the bus part of it it you get a couple of very quick (maybe 5mins) if you are lucky to stop and take pictures and trying to get about 50 odd people off a bus and on again in 5 minutes is not easy. Toilet stops a problem, but that seems to be the case right across America, every city we have been to and that is 5 so far they do NOT apparently have public toilets in the big USA, so if you want tourists to come and you do not provide public facilities I will be telling my friends about that too. For older people that is definately an issue.

My Recommendation Tip
I have booked with airbnb so far in 4 of the states we are going to, it has worked out a heck of a lot cheaper and you get your own ktchen and t/v, wifi and a lot of other things that you don't get in hotels. I mean so far I have not stayed in 1 as we are not travelling until mid Sept to end Oct but I will make some recomendations or otherwise once we have done the trip. So I am hoping it all goes without too much of a hitch. But the reviews that I have read on the site from people who have apparently used this service appears to be pretty good. We are hoping to go to Europe next year, health being well and if it turns out okay this time we will definately do it again. I shall comment after the trip though.
