I had been looking forward to the trip for a while, but was very disappointed when a little van pulled up with no bathroom. It was a 12-hour, day trip, and they didn't think we would need to use the bathroom? We left from the Port Authority at about 6:30 and got to Philadelphia around 9:00 or 9:30. When we arrived I asked the guide where the public rest area is and was told we wouldn't be there for another half hour. He proceded to give a tour of the historic area, but I couldn't concentrate at all because I really had to go. Fortunately, while he was giving the history of Betsy Ross's house, I saw a Starbucks across the street and made a beeline.--- After that, I enjoyed the historic sights and Amish Country, but I wouldn't book another one of these tours. They should have informed us before hand of the no-bathroom situation, so we could have made other arrangements.

Hello Debora! Thank you for your review. All of out tours have guaranteed departures and the vehicles that we use on our tours depend on the amount of passengers we have booked for that trip. We use either a Mercedes Sprinter, minibus or a big bus. Unfortunately, smaller vehicles don't have bathrooms. We make stops every 2 hours for bathroom breaks. We are glad that you enjoyed the historic sights that Philadelphia has to offer and that you had a wonderful experience at the Amish Country. We look forward to hosting you again.
