- Philip· June 22nd, 2024Because of the itinerary, I joined the tour and oh, boy, I surely wasn't mistaken. It was a great adventure from beginning to end. The only missing piece is the start of the Revolution, which is situated in Boston. That would have rounded up the experience to a T. Anyhow, the tour guide was great and fun. It happened to be a relative small group tour of 21 people; that helped a lot too in terms of logistics, efficiency and orderliness. But the tour bus could have been better by having WiFi and more sound insulation, especially at the back where the engine and the air-conditioning were noisier;the overhead built-in speakers could have been better; as it was, they were kind of muffled in the rear again. Overall, it was worth every penny. For history buffs, it could not get any better, actually experiencing the real thing, immersing in it all than just reading the events online or in book format. Once in a lifetime experience. Never a dull moment.Show moreTrip date: June 2024
- AGlenda· July 17th, 2023Our primary guide, Amy, was knowledgeable about the tour destinations, and what she didn't know immediately found out the answer and got the answer to us.Trip date: July 2023Review collected by Globus

- AWilliam· June 13th, 2023The tour went beyond my expectations. As a former history teacher, It quenched my desire for knowledge with a balance of information, sites, and reenactors to bring history alive. I liked the accommodations, the food, and the staff. One highlight, in particular, was having dinner in a tavern in Williamsburg. Another was having dinner on the Moshulu in Philadelphia.Show moreTrip date: June 2023Review collected by Globus

- AMargaret· June 11th, 2023Guide was friendly, well-informed, and organized. Sites were outstanding or good except for one. I would omit the Waterman's Museum and replace it with another activity in Yorktown.Trip date: June 2023Review collected by Globus
