Bus Sightseeing | Award-Winning Guided NYC Bus Tours

BUS SIGHTSEEING

Time-Tested Bus Sightseeing Concept


In short, people who comprise our great company are passionate about sightseeing and about visiting our great cities. These are pretty much the main prerequisites to fit perfectly into our team.

Another thing we, at USA Guided Tours, are passionate about is doing sightseeing the right way, the way it was done in the good old days when tour guides would stick an umbrella up in the air (so you don’t lose them in a crowd) and would take you around to introduce you to the sites in a more intimate way.

The good news is that this time-tested concept is still alive! We truly believe that fully-guided bus tours done with smaller groups, transported with climate-controlled buses, and conducted by the expert local tour guides are the best way to go about sightseeing!

The fact is that visitors who come to explore iconic cities, such as New York City and Washington, DC prefer this fully-guided concept. Numerous studies have been conducted confirming this, and essentially it boils down to a few main factors that give the fully-guided concept an edge over the open-top bus sightseeing.

  • Had a great tour with our guide Gil. Even my teenagers had a great time and learned a good amount from our tour. Not only was our tour fantastic and informative, Gil gave us some great pointers while in NY. Tour bus was nice and clean (not your open-air buses you see all over NY) Would highly recommend this tour!

We use 35-passenger luxury tour buses for our daily mixed tour groups.

We reserve the right to substitute our small-capacity tour buses with larger-capacity passenger buses, depending upon demand and/or our tour schedule.
Our smaller-capacity tour buses and vans do not have storage for accommodating carry-on bags. We ask that you only bring purses, briefcases, or backpacks for your tour. If you have larger bags you need to store while touring, please check with your hotel or use luggage storage service provided by Vertoe - easy and convenient way to store your belongings with 300+ citywide locations!
