I just returned last night from the New York trip.  It was wonderful!  We saw so much and found out so many interesting facts about the city.  We certainly saw the sites we wanted to and now know what we could see in more detail at a later time. There was a good amount of free time and lots of detailed information on how to get back to the New Jersey hotel later in the evening if we wanted to stay in the city.  Pam Cook was terrific - great sense of humour and very knowledgable and helpful. She kept everyone adequately entertained on the rides.   John from Denny's was an amazing driver and very personable as well.  We will certainly do another trip at some point.  My friend and I are interested in Boston if that trip is available next summer.  Thank you for a well-planned trip.  Carol Gilchrist more
