New York to Washington DC & Niagara Tour (3 Days) : Tour Details

There are two pick-up points of Happy Holiday for this tour. One is near to Flushing area (38th Ave & 138th St, Flushing, NY 11354) and another is in lower Manhattan (174 Centre St, New York, NY 10013 (At Edison ParkFast across from Starbucks; Nearby SUBWAY: J, M, Z, 4,5,6 at CANAL ST station)). Happy Holiday conducts this tour on every Monday and Friday. The tour starts from Flushing at around 7:00 AM and the bus reaches at Manhattan at around 7:45 AM.

Day-1 :On first day we started from Manhattan, New York and first we reached to Philadelphia at around 11:00 o'clock. We visited Liberty Bell and Independence Hall in Philadelphia. After that we headed towards Washington DC. On the way to Washington DC we had our lunch at a rest area. After our lunch we reached Washington DC at around 2:00 o'clock. In Washington DC we visited Air & Space Museum first. This museum is a very good place to know about the evaluation of aerospace technology. You can see stating from Wright brother's first plane to today's modern jet aircraft. This also has all details on rocket technology and US space missions. You can see the Apollo 11 which went to Moon.

After Air & Space Museum we went to see Capital Hills and White house. It was a great experience to me to see Capital Hills and White House. We also visited National Arts Museum. This is really a good museum to see. But you need a whole day too look all the things here. We had little less time to see each and everything of this museum. Afterwards we went to visit Washington memorial, Korean War Memorial and Lincoln Memorial. We spent little relaxed time near Lincoln Memorial. This place was beautiful. We also saw several different US government office buildings which are really nice piece of modern structural science. It was almost evening 8:00 o'clock when finished Washington DC tour.

I travelled by Happy Holidays Travel on a 3 day tour to Niagara Falls, Washington and Philadelphia. The tour was excellent. Hotels were good, except being far away from the central locations. Unfortunately, we got the last two seats next to the toilet. It was two seats in a three seater. Hence, there was no window for both the seats. View on one side was totally blocked by the toilet in the bus. The seats had no arm rest, no push back and no foot rest to one of the seats. The last three seats are unfit for travel. While booking the tickets, seat numbers are neither known nor allotted. I felt as if I was taken for a big ride by the travel agent. I wish that those three seats are not given to any one who plans a trip for pleasure. It should not turn out to be a disgusting travel. Happy Holiday Travels should keep in mind the comfort of the travellers and not issue tickets to seat numbers 57,58 and 59.
