Bus Tours

Ok before I begin, I would like you to know that I have never ever been on one of these tours, however - I have read a lot on them, and would love to go on one - so I am going to randomly chat about why these types of tours appeal to me so much. I actually live in the UK and the 2 main companies that I have heard of do bus tours of the UK (that said this is they type of tour I would be interested in). I think that there are so may different, interesting, educational, beautiful and intriguing places in the UK, I could spend months just traveling from place to place, visiting all of the tourist attracted and finding the hidden gems! ...  Read the complete review

Lots of things I do seem to other people to be very bad ideas. Fortunately I live a bizarre existance where due to my extraordinary skills as a machinist and builder combined with the fact that I am the scion of a famous rich German Industrialist family I can pretty much at least attempt any idea that I conceive.

Don't worry this is not an advert! I was in New York for the year 2000 celebrations, although it wasn't a bus tour it was tour and this seems the most approriate section to place my discovery. This tour was done by a local New Yorker called Jerry. Jerry is a volenteer at the Youth Hostel international on 103rd street and Amsterdam Avenue.
