USA Explorer Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Explorer USA tours
Katherine M. | Traveled in June
The sense of history experienced and the number of places seen; Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard , the walking tour of Boston and the magnificent Breakers in RI is something we couldn't have done on our own. Secret gems also appreciated such as the monument in Plymouth. I also appreciated there was time to explore on our own before returning the tour.
Ken | Traveled in June
We saw an enormous amount of incredible beauty and wonderment in a lot of parks in a short amount of time while still having time to wander around them on our own. This was one of our favorite trips
Mitchell H. | Traveled in June
We enjoyed seeing Boston New York Philadelphia, and Washington DC , all the historical sites. I didn’t have to worry about driving or parking. . Robin was wonderful and loved all the extra information on the sites. Scott , the bus driver was amazing , we never worried during the trips
Natasha O. | Traveled in June
I really enjoyed this tour as it took me to a lot of places I never even knew existed. I loved all the native culture as well. My favorite things we did would have to be the sunrise hike in monument valley, going to sky city, seeing the cliff dwellings at bandelier national monument, and canyon de Chelly. I also really enjoyed being in Santa Fe. Really the only thing I wish was different was that I wish we would’ve spent way more time at the music instrument museum. You really need like four or five hours there cause I didn’t even get to the bottom floor. I also did the optional tour of the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed going there but I wish we would’ve done less driving and more walking because it took all day to go there and most of it was just driving. And I was disappointed I didn’t really get to spend any time in Sedona because of that. Other than those two things everything was totally perfect. I had a very good time
Sandy | Traveled in May
It was a true tour through all the important Revolutionary Sites that enhanced the 250th Anniversary Trip greatly. To be in Lexington, Concord, Valley Forge, West Point besides the major seeing the 4 main cities, and to think of all that happened there was wonderful. I am so happy we were part of the tour and with excellent local guides too.. So happy that we extended by 2 days and we were able to visit Smithsonian Museums WOW!
