We took a tour in Feb 2025. The trip was awesome because the bus was comfortable, the driver was very knowledgeable. He kept us entertained through out the trip and made sure everyone reaches on time. The bus WI-fi service was pretty good. There were plenty of water bottles and granola bars. Overall it was a great & memorable trip. I will recommend this tour company to all my friends.
