Customer Reviews
The coach was good. Not a full bus so we could spread out. Itinerary went to plan, saw everything that was on the itinerary. Only on the last hotel which was in New Orleans was disappointing. Staff very rude, stayed three nights but no fresh towels or rubbish emptied.
A good itinerary but with no frills
We absolutely should have had another hour at graceland. I wasnt the only one that didnt have time for everything. Its a once in a life tine experience for everyone on that bus and I didnt see it all. So we had to be back on the bus to go to Sun studios then the grocery store was aparterntly a must by 330, to be sitting in our hotel at 5 doing nothing absolutely appalling. I wish I could get a refund
The Natchez Mississippi stop was okay but we would of been happier with a town that had a little more to do at night.
