We initially were concerned about how the pace would be but it turned out to be quite good and nothing to be concerned about. There was enough flexibility to either follow the guided tours or do our own thing at the places we visited sol lo..ng as we all returned to the bus at the agreed time to leave for the next site.
There were 2 guides: one for us, the English-speaking participants and the other for the Chinese speaking participants on the tour. The guides were very friendly and helpful.
Really enjoyed the tour very much.
It was just right for us ~ lots to see and enough time to take pictures and enjoy the sights.
We definitely recommend this tour operator and wouldn't hesitate to join another of their tours.
I must add: The Chinese buffer option for lunch on the last day was a delight! That was probably one of the best Chinese meals I and my friends have ever had. They sure picked the right restaurant!Read full review

I doubt if I could find something better for this price.
Pros:
* Very easy in terms of logistics: started in Jersey City near Hoboken Terminal.
* Ability to visit sightseen and take pictures
* Lovely Amish Country tour!!!
* Good motel.. for night stay: very clean
Cons:
* Amish dinner is not actually Amish and isn't worth money
* Additional service fee: it would be much better to include it into general price
* Guide had pretty heavy accent, and it was hard to understand himRead full review
My friend told me about tours4fun and I've decided to give it a try .We went with my friend and had so much fun .I would tell you these guys are extremely organized , everything runs according the schedule ,great ideas on attractions to see.. , decent hotel to stay in and as I said lot's of positive emotions . Our tour guide Harvey Lin was super friendly , communicative and very caring , thank you Harvey you are the best . Regarding transportation : our bus was very old , smelled funny and we weren't able to use the bathroom on it , on our way back driver said there was a problem with the bus and we stopped for 15 minutes , thankfully he was able to fix the issue fast and we were back to NY . Regarding hotel : well as I said decent ,I mean I wasn't expecting 5 star hotel for $76 , my main priority was to room to be clean and comfy bed , which I have no complains about , everything was clean and comfortable . I would say if you guys are looking for a tour on budget to see US Capitol and have fun , these guys are right fit for you , Super organized , Amazing tour guide Harvey and lots of positivity . Overall great weekend with my friend and will definitely use them in the future . Hopefully my review was helpful to all of you guys out there . P.S Harvey thank you for great weekend !!!!!Read full review
We loved this tour. In particular the Amish part of the tour was to us the best part. The guide for that part of the tour was especially exceptional. The regular tour guide did a great job on the trip as well. He explained everything in.. English and in Chinese.
Overall it was a great tour. We are in our 70's and our guide did outpace us quite a bit at the beginning of the Capital Building tour.
This tour is also a wonderful way to get from NYC to Washington, DC if you need that, as we did. We left the tour in Washington instead of returning to NY.
We considered the boat cruise a waste of money that should be removed from the offering. The commentator was not in sync with the views and there were not many views of interest.
I would highly recommend the tour, but advise against the cruiseRead full review
The Red Roof hotel is bad, not clean, smoking. And it took 40 minutes to check in.
The driver could not start the bus on next day morning and it took 2 hours to fix the bus.
