      Maggie and I enjoyed the trip. It was especially nice to have everything pre-arranged for us. And, I've always enjoyed having the time to take in the sites with Excite, and not feel rushed. Your tour guides, Jama and Sue did a great job, too. Thanks! Keith

      Great time Awesome lunch. Enjoyed all the stores for shopping. Just wish the weather was warmer and not so chilly. The bus though was another story. Compared to other buses we’ve been on it just felt too cramped and not really enough leg room and wish it had fold down trays. It may be okay for day trips once in a while but not so much for longer trips. Just my opinion.
