My husband and I just returned from a Land Cruise, Inc. charter bus trip to New York City (December 15–19), and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. We felt incredibly well taken care of the entire trip. Our driver was fantastic and navigated hectic NYC gridlock traffic with ease, always making us feel safe and comfortable. Our cruise director, Merrill Phillips, was outstanding—knowledgeable, funny, and extremely organized. He’s led tours to NYC around 60 times, and it showed. He shared fascinating facts about the city, gave clear directions, and made sure everyone knew exactly where to be and when. Russ Jehl was also a tremendous help, always checking in, offering support, and making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. We especially loved the optional walking tours Merrill led (including Rockefeller Center), the boat tour of the Hudson and East Rivers with views of the Statue of Liberty, and the absolutely stunning Rockettes Christmas Spectacular—an unforgettable highlight! As a couple in our 40s, we found the walking very manageable and were amazed by how much of NYC we were able to see. This trip would truly be great for anyone. Wonderful planning, great people, and an unforgettable New York City experience. Highly recommend Land Cruise, Inc.!
