Eastern USA & Canada Escape

Exploring nice locations alongside a scenic route

Booked our 3rd tour with these guys for next year 2024…

Another amazing tour by expat ! Exactly as described plus more

I enjoyed this tour as it was nicely managed. I will certainly opt for next tour thru Expt Explorer.

In general it was a very good tour, thanks to Larry for his knowledge for the countries and Leo for his excellent service for all of us!

Larry was a great tour guide, only complaint is was not a lot of free time, got into room quite late and some dinner/ market choices were questionable. We are from USA so Larry explained why for the 95% of foreigners want to see a Walmart. I would still recommend Expat for the younger traveler. You definitely get your money's worth!

Tour guide was amazing. Group was so open and friendly. Pre tour arrangements left a bad taste in the mouth but the tour made up for that.

Amazing fun and enjoyment especially with a professional and Deducated tour guide Larry Schwarz and Safety Driver Leo.

13 states 2 countries in 12 days . Amazing sights Excellent tour guide and driver Definitely recommend great value for money

The tour operator provides me with the opportunity to see and experience the best of what many places have to offer, without the hassle of independantly looking for things to do or the expense of booking hotels etc. The tour(though fast pace at times) is good, however the highlight of my trip was the time spent at the Niagra falls. I am unable to express through words the feelings of joy and amazement while there. I would definitely recommend the boat ride into the falls. Larry(I.e the tour guide) and Leo(the bus driver) worked well together and were very personable and attentive to our needs. Larry is very organized and strived to be as detailed with all aspects of the tour. Alternatively, there are some aspects to the tour that should be amended. There are some travel days that are extremely too long(I.e. DC). 11 pm(having being up and on the road from 7:30), is far too late getting back to the hotel. Also the 2 hour stop in downtown Detroit should be assessed as there's not much to do there therefore, lots of time are being spent sitting and waiting for the return of the bus. Another issue I had was the fact that expat did not make sufficient effort in ensuring that the food stops tended to the needs of the vegetarians on the bus. The welcome dinner at dicks and the stop at cracker barrel did not account for the vegetarians, therefore leaving fast food as the most prominent food selections. This information was requested prior to the trip, so I'm of the view that this should have been sufficiently accounted for. Also, we were very disappointed with the "thank you token(I.e. a key chain)" received at the end of the trip. I understand that the US tours are fairly new, however, the operator, as a company is not new. In fact, I have been on a european tour with the company and we received a bag full of items branded with the tour operator's name....with the most important to me, being the passport book with stickers. I was really looking forward to getting a passport with stickers

Had a wonderful time on our USA and Canada tour. Larry was a very knowledgeable tour leader and we always felt we were in safe hands with Leo our bus driver. Would recommend this tour. Hotels were spacious, although a few were a little bit dated they were clean and comfortable.

We were well guided by Larry around the East Coast of the US and Canada. His experience and expertise in this part of the world was evident each day with lots of information, fun facts, related playlists and maps. The tour was action packed and at times tiring because of all we saw and did but worth the effort. We had opportunities to explore on our own as well as being given included and optional city tours. The accommodation was good as were the breakfasts and the one included dinner provided an opportunity to meet the other passengers. Well worth the money and time.

Larry&Leo are a fantastic team nothing was too hard for them. True Gentleman &they were put too the test buy 23 people who quite rude ¬ very accommodating too the rest of the group. But overall a fantastic time &tour.

I just love the variety of experience and the busyness of the trips. Passionate people giving us an adventure that I don't need to plan in advance.

Although I had a cold the whole trip it was a wonderful experience with a patience group with a bus that was very late on day 1 and also some other times, with a driver who skip red lights, sway on the road and driving uneven? Wonder why we had to change buses? On the bright side, the hotels was spacious and comfortable, but our carpet at Niagara falls Hotel was smelling wet and not convenient to get luggage to the elevator. To have dinner scheduled at some overnights would have been very helpful, because sometimes the day ends exhausting and not much time to get dinner. We want to suggest to hand out evaluation forms in advance to remember the specific stops and hotels in question. Although our tour leader acknowledge to be of a certain character, we found him to be very helpful in his own way and did a good job. The positive experiences outnumbered the negatives by far, thus we will certainly go again with Expat!! We thank you.
