The luxury coach was nothing more than what someone else called a camper bus. Disgusting. Also the guide was out for a day for himself and not informative. Most disappointing when you pay so much and have looked forward to this trip for months.

The lead tour guide was 20 minutes late, without apology or introduction once she arrived. The tour guides provided little factual information and were not able to answer simple questions about the historical sites we were touring. The tour guides were rude, hard to understand and often gave inaccurate information. The tour stops were short in duration and lacked the historical explanation insight desired when visiting this American iconic city. The tour guides would often set meeting times and consistently arrive late. We would never recommend this tour.

You spend most of the time on the road, and it can be crowded inside the van. Tour guides are very kind.
