Jean-Michel –

We really enjoyed the information the guide gave us. Furthermore he was very nice and funny. He made us feel really comfortable. The sites we discovered were all we expected to see. The hotel, although a bit far away from shops or town, was correct. The food in the morning was correct too.

Our guide Nick O'Keeffe was exceptionally knowledgeable, very pleasant and accomplished. It was a great experience and I would recommend the trip very highly. Our driver William (I believe was his name) was accommodating and very pleasant. Every part of the trip was enjoyable, Philadelphia, Amish countryside and WashingtonDC. Crowne Plaza a great hotel for our night in WashingtonDC
