Hello!

I am booked on both the Grand Northern and Grand Southern with you and I am travelling solo as well. Its so good to know I wont be the only one!

I was gonna book into the Big Apple Explorer too but I thought it would clash with the GN departure??!!?? Too late now, I've booked my flights now and don't arrive until 11.20 on the 29th Frowner

It's a shame cause April 30 is my 26th birthday and it would have been nice to not be by myself. Still... i'll be in NEW YORK!! Surely I can find something to do Smiler

EEEKKKK... I'm sooo excited!

Hi All,

Have just booked GS on May 31. Solo traveller from Melbourne. I have travelled extensively through Europe, Asia and Middle East but this will be my first time to USA. Arriving into LAX on May 29 but have to fly out the day after tour finishes to start another one in Seattle. Look forward to meeting you all.
