There was virtually no organization at the meeting place at Central Station. The staff made no effort to find out who was booked on which tour and we almost got on the wrong bus. It was quite chaotic. Once under way all went well except that four different languages were being used for explanations which was very tiresome. Also we spent more than an hour on a detour to New Jersey to pick up other passengers while we had to be at Central Station at such an early hour. Then there was a mix up with passengers and another 20 minutes was wasted. Once the tour was under way the places visited were very interesting and we had enough time in each place considering it is just a two day tour. A one day return trip to Washington DC would be far too rushed I think. The three star hotel accommodation was far better than expected, in a newly refurbished Howard Johnson Hotel. The driver was particularly good and drove safely and carefully.
