Terrible bus accommodations.

John_C, Jun 2023

It appears you're looking for a marketing piece and not a review. No questions are asked that could have a negative response. I've never been on a more uncomfortable bus ride in my life. It spoiled the day. Leg room on the bus was for toddlers, not grown adults.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear John, Thank you for leaving a review and we're sorry to hear we did not meet your expectations with the vehicle we used for the tour. Kind Regards Anderson Tours

No one showed!

Ingram_D, Dec 2018

No one showed or called to cancel. We waited for one hour and 15 min. No one showed or called to cancel. Still have not had a response to my email. We caught the train to Cambridge only to find the Kings Chapel was closed.
