Customer Reviews
Good trip, pleasant route, liked the driver, Big Al.

-James Sedam, North Plainfield, NJ
The tour and the guide were wonderful

-Patricia Hague, Stockton, CA
The tour was great but Mt Vernon was bombarded with kids from close up, there was a long line to see the mansion. Also I thought that the gardens would be more breathtaking. Overall a very good way to spend 35 dollars.
