What our passengers are saying?
Good Morning. I returned from the New York trip on Sunday evening. The trip exceeded
my expectations. The bus driver, Greg, was extremely skilled, courteous and kind and
drove through the countryside as well as the busiest New York streets with unflagging
patience, care as well as flexibility when required to make last minute changes due to
unforeseen circumstances.
* Eliane was the most wonderful guide, again - patient, kind,
professional and considerate, as well as a fount of information as we travelled. She
somehow managed to make the long drives back and forth entertaining - quiet when
we needed quiet and quizzes, historical/geographical information to keep us engaged
and interested.
* Thank you very much for the inclusion of Mark Levy - it was
delightful to hear from a native New Yorker and I feel the entire trip was greatly
enhanced by his humour and knowledge.
In short, I cannot wait for my next trip with Comfort - and as I mentioned to my friend
who accompanied me, if only we could travel the world like this
- I would never get on a plane again!
Thank you!

Good Morning!
I would like to share a few thoughts on our recent tour with Comfort Travel.
Our party of 3 travelled with Comfort Travel in its inaugural visit to Boston during the
Easter Weekend, 2011. Our tour guide Pam did a wonderful job, not only keeping our
group occupied while travelling, but also in helping us to get the most out of our 4 day
visit to Boston, and Cape Cod. Despite the horrible rainy weather for our walking
tour of the Freedom Trail and around historic Boston, Pam, along with our local guide,
kept things moving along, and interesting. We had a lovely day on Easter Sunday
travelling to Hyannis, and Plymouth with glorious weather and lots of quaint sightseeing
opportunities. Pam handled herself professionally during all situations, even when
she lost her camera!
Our bus driver Ken, was another seasoned professional in whom we had complete
confidence. Ken obviously knew the route, as well as the city of Boston very well,
and handled our one mechanical emergency with speed and efficiency, and got us
on our way again quickly. We commented to ourselves repeatedly that it was so
nice to be sightseeing, and to leave the driving and responsibilities to Ken and Pam.
We had a very busy 4 days for our adventure to Boston and felt that we certainly took
full advantage of as much as there was to see and do, in such a short time. Our only
suggestion, as this is the maiden voyage for Comfort Travel to Boston, would be to allow
passengers an option during the afternoons while in Boston. For example, our hotel had
a lovely pool, as well as gym, hot-tub, and sauna. Each person in our party would have
liked the option to have a few hours before dinner on each the Saturday and Sunday, to
either be dropped back at the hotel, while others could opt to stay in Boston proper and
continue with the group. I understand that with larger groups, this is not always possible,
We were lucky enough to have a small group of about 20 people, and this made for some
flexibility. As it was, our days consisted of leaving the hotel right after breakfast and not
arriving back at the hotel until about 8:00 - 9:00 pm. Luckily we had the stamina for this,
but I can see this schedule might preclude others with either medical limitations, older
passengers, or those who don't wan't to keep up such a pace.
However, we enjoyed our days fully, especially the option that we took of a group dinner
on Sunday at No-Name Seafood.
I will forward some photos of our trip, once my husband has them ready to send.
Thanks again for a great adventure to Boston, and we look forward to travelling again
with you in the future!
Sincerely,
Sandy & Fred Webb, and Gary Dee.

Comfort Travel,
Easter Weekend I travelled to Boston with Comfort Tours for the first time.
My Tour Director was Pam Cook. My Bus Driver was Ken Mackenzie.
I sincerely had a wonderful time! Pam did her utmost best to make us feel
comfortable, accommodated, educated and entertained. Her pleasant , friendly
personality was always shining which definitely helped to make the dull
rainy days bright !
Ken's punctuality and safe driving helped things to run smoothly. When
we experienced a little bus trouble in Boston I heard no passenger
complaining and there was tremendous cooperation amongst us when our
transportation plans had to be modified. This I believe can be directly
credited to the atmosphere of camaraderie amongst all of us Ken and Pam
both help to cultivate on this trip.
What I thought was most considerate was after the problem with the bus was
solved, Ken took the time to explain to all of us what exactly the trouble was with
the bus, the solution and then did his best to reassure us that there would be no
problems to return home safely on the same bus.
I was totally satisfied with the hotel accommodations, the choice of restaurants
and the many sites we saw. I felt this trip was money well spent and a
wonderful time enjoyed. To sit back, relax and just enjoy having someone else tell
me where to go and what I should do is truly a treat for me.
I would definitely travel with Comfort Travel again when I need a quick getaway or
ComfortTravel includes new destinations. At present I have been to all destinations
Comfort Travel now travels.
Thank you for the experience!
Respectfully Marcia Cameron (Very satisfied customer)
