I want to commend Shari for her great customer service. She fixed an issue with my ticket reservation. She was so patient and professional. Didn't get the driver's name but he should get a medal for navigating the traffic!

The bus was great, but the stops could be better marked in some locations. We enjoyed using the hop-on hop-off. It's the perfect way to get around to all the stops you want to make. Our highlight was getting stopped for a bit while the presidential motorcade went by...not a sight you see every day!
