What our passengers are saying?
We just returned from a great New York City trip and had the time of our lives. Our tour guide Gerda and bus driver John were absolutely the most professional people ever. They knew what was happening and their sense of humor made all of us feel right at home. I know that if we take another tour both my wife and I will surely try to have both Gerda and John on our bus. Thanks to Comfort Tours for the wonderful time and again thanks to Gerda and John for a job well done. Mike and Nancy.
My family had a tour to New York on August 23-26th, 2012. It was a great experience for my family. The tour was well organized and we were provided plenty information for the trip. Both the tour guide and the bus driver were professional and very responsible. Joe, the tour guide was nice and funny. He told us stories and jukes and played games with us on the bus which made the long ride more enjoyable. The local tour guide is very good too. In New York, we were given the freedom to choose either staying with the group or going on our won. When we decided to move on our own on the second day in New York, Joe provided us detailed information regarding New York's subway information and train schedule, and how to get back to our hotel. Overall, this is a well managed tour. I am certainly recommending it to whoever considering a bus tour.

We took the recent trip to NYC during the Labour Day weekend Aug 31-Sep 3.
Let me start by conveying a big "Thank you" for arranging this awesome tour to New York City. This was our first trip to New York and I can honestly say was memorable and incredible.
My heartfelt thanks to the very funny and incredible tour guide Gerda Francis and the best driver John, he drove us safely and manoeuvred the streets of NYC so well, I was very impressed.
Our tour guide, Gerda, was a delight. Absolutely friendly, humorous, knowledgeable, entertaining and we were always on schedule everywhere. She truly deserves a 'certificate of merit' for being such a wonderful tour guide. She made the trip totally enjoyable.
The hotel Hyatt in New Brunswick was good and we explored the neighbouring streets. Although located at a distance from NYC, Gerda our tour guide gave us excellent directions from Penn Station and a copy of the train schedule, which made it super easy for us to return from NYC.
If I have to make one suggestion, it would be to extend this tour by a day or two as it was tiring to shop and tour NYC in two days. We would have loved to visit the Brooklyn Bridge; sadly we only got to see it from across the Pier. That's the only suggestion I have.
I once again thank Comfort Tours, JOHN our driver and lovely super-duper guide GERDA FRANCIS for making our trip to New York so memorable.
Thank you!

Boston Labour Day w/e 2012,
We had a great tour in Boston with the friendly, organized and funny Pam as our tour guide. The bus driver John was very interested in the passengers well-being and skilled at driving in traffic.
The tour in Boston by the local guide was excellent and it was a great combination of a driving and walking tour. He offered not only dates and facts but interesting stories about Harvard, Boston districts and the colonial period that text books do not illustrate. Free time is perfect as we could go where we liked for dinner and explore the area. Cheers is a fun place to have a beer! The food choices at Quincy Market Food Court was extensive and had local stuff like Clam Chowda. Plymouth Rock/Tour of Mayflower was extremely interesting and a good break from the city the day before. We recommend the free walking tour by the Ranger that takes place every 30 minutes. The optional group sea food dinner on Sunday was excellent, affordable and very enjoyable to share the experience with our fellow travelers.
This is our second tour with Comfort (NYC 2011) and we were very happy with everything from start to finish. My husband and I loved Boston and now we want to take the tour to Chicago and hope to have the same staff again, Pam and John.
The hotel was quite a distance from Boston however it was quiet at night, heavenly beds and no traffic noise. The pool was nice. The breakfast buffet was good, lots to eat and good service. What more could you ask for?
Thank you for a wonderful tour!

Boston Tour – August 31 to September 3, 2012
Pam Cook – Tour Guide, John – Bus Driver
Thank you Comfort Tours for a wonderful Boston and vicinity experience. We had a wonderful, knowledgeable, and fun tour guide, Pam Cook. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide, the personal service that she provided went well beyond our expectations. The level of service, from her pre trip introductory phone call extending all the way to calling a taxi upon our return to the drop off location was appreciated. She provided us with city maps (and shopping maps + coupons) for our destinations which helped us organize our free time, not to mention, all other literature she passed around for our perusal. Time flew by on the bus, due to her fun games, and great sense of humour. We were lucky to have John “Moose” as our driver, who provided us with a very safe and fun trip. Love your ties John, as well as your jokes!!! We had a great group on board, from the young adults to the young at heart seniors. The group was so friendly, and it was a pleasure spending our weekend with everyone. We highly recommend this company, Pam Cook as a Tour Guide, and John as the Best Driver. Till the next time...
