Nalini_M, July 2022

The trip was good . However I was disappointed at the last minute just before anticipating that we would now be traveling to finger lakes which was an itinerary on the trip last minute we were told be there tour guide we are unable to do so as there was an event in the area .

Response from Host, July 2022

Hi Nalini! Thank you for your review. We are glad you had a great time during the tour. Unfortunately we can't control local events. We look forward to hosting you again Stephanie, Empire Solutions

Great trip

Barry_B, Sept 2021

Tour guides were very knowledgeable and informative. It was very fast paced but saw a lot of things.

Tour USA y Canadá.

MIQUELVI, Nov 2019

Interesante tour por USA y Canadá, con visita de múltiples lugares interesantes en un espacio de tiempo reducido, quizás demasiado, Sería más interesante emplear dos o tres días más, pero no por ello pierde atractivo. El bus fué confortable y el recorrido interesante con variedad de paisajes.

Viaje Grandioso

El paseo estuvo todo hermoso, los lugares magníficos para conocer, recomiendo cojer este tour, únicamente hay que tomar en cuenta que los guías hablan poco español ya que la mayoría de turistas que acompañan son europeos y como siempre son mas que el grupo de latinos, y otro detalle los desayunos son malos y los hoteles no son nuevos, y deben gastar dinero extra en alimentación ya que los lugares que se visitan son lugares de lujo y por ende los precios son altos, pero vale la pena hacer ese gasto.
