He scanned our ticket and we boarded. The bus was pretty full, so we ended up sitting separately. The above head storage bins are kind of tight, so I had to take something out of my over stuffed backpack to manage to wiggle it in. While my purse sat on my lap. I liked the foot rest and the hook on the handle on the seat in front of me. Trash bags were hung here and there. Looks like they also provided small bottles of water for us, though we had to grab those ourselves. The electric plugs didn't seem to work, but perhaps the ubs plugs in the ceiling did. Our driver was a great communicator. He set expectations so we knew that we had a 20 min rest stop before arriving at Baltimore, and pointed out things to help us to pay attention and to get back to the right bus. He warned us that given current construction that we were sure to arrive later than what our tickets said, and gave us his best eta given the circumstances. Another passenger later commented that the bus bathroom was clean. We kind of ended up being dropped off on a brightly painted bridge in the middle of no where - perhaps on Maryland Ave?, by a bus stop. A short walk from Penn Station.

Very disappointing experience…read more My family arrived at the Worcester, MA bus stop at 7:35 PM for a scheduled departure. We waited continuously until 8:10 PM, and the bus never arrived. When we contacted customer service, we were told the bus had already left at 7:47 PM, which is simply not consistent with what we experienced. Instead of investigating the situation or showing any empathy, customer service insisted the bus had departed and refused to offer a refund or any meaningful resolution. It's extremely frustrating to be told we missed a bus that never appeared while we were waiting at the designated pickup location. Reliable service and responsive customer support are essential for travelers. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this service and hope the company improves both its bus tracking and customer service processes.

Not only was Esther one of the most personable, understanding and patient people I've worked with, but her knowledge knows no bounds!

She's a true lifesaver. I cannot thank her enough for helping make this trip come to fruition and crafting it to be a once in a lifetime experience!

500 reviews! Woo! I…read morewould like to dedicate my 500th review to a travel company for young professionals, a small business that truly did handle itself with fairness and grace during times of uncertainty and fear. I booked not 1, but 2 trips with Travendly at the beginning of the year before COVID took the world by storm. I was SO looking forward to my travels and meeting new people. Unfortunately, my first trip got cancelled due to the virus but I learned a few things about this company during these trying times, so I'd like to shine a spotlight on them. 1. Their itineraries are EXTREMELY organized, and all of the details of your trip are made available to you in an app. There's also a WhatsApp group where you can communicate with other solo travelers who will be joining you. 2. The coordinator was extremely helpful in consolidating all of my info - arrival and departure flights, travel insurance, other forms. I also found her to be very responsive to emails which was very reassuring. 3. You get to virtually "meet" the group you are traveling with beforehand so that when you do meet up, it's like seeing an old friend vs. meeting someone for the first time. Even though my trip was cancelled, I was able to make a friend to travel with in the future. A little silver lining to these uncertain times. 4. Travel credits with the company are valid for a long time and transferrable to any of their trips, so I don't feel like my $ is lost. I also don't feel locked in to 2020 which is still basically up in the air. So no, I have not yet traveled with the company just yet, but I will in the future, and I'd like to give them a solid shoutout for being awesome during this whole thing. If you want a seamless "solo" travel experience, I'd highly recommend booking with Travendly.

I am usually not one for group travel because it often comes with long amounts of time waiting…read morearound and subpar planning. I often felt like I need to travel alone to ensure that I experience everything. Travendly's Morocco trip completely changed my perception of this! Travendly is for people who truest love to travel and want as much adventure as possible, rather than just resting in the hotel room. Every part of the Travendly trip was impeccably planned and amazing. The tour guide Ali G was unbelievably knowledgeable and willing to answer any question we have. He also was committed to providing us with an amazing experience and kept great track of timing to make sure we always saw everything planned for the day. The schedule for Morocco was also perfect. It is planned so well from the places we see to the places we stop for lunch and restroom in between. No one leaf was left unturned. Even the often long bus trips between stops were stunning and majestic in Morocco's very diverse landscape. Travendly also attracts a great crowd of co-travelers. My Morocco trip had 7 girls and I definitely see myself having long friendships with every one of them. The crowd that Travendly attracts is super professional and kind and committed to making the trip as positive as it can get. If you use Travendly for the Morocco trip, you will definitely have the experience of a lifetime. This trip has been my most memorable travel experience so far and I am hoping to have many more with this company. From camel rides in the Sahara desert to exploration of Roman ruins to eating delicious tajine, this trip is a MUST GO!!!!

When I walked in around noon on a weekday, there were 4 travel agents all available and the one I worked with is David. I applied for a 10 year multiple entry visa for my daughter and was required to provide the following documents: + Passports (hers, mine, my husband's) + Birth certificate (just hers) + ID (my driver's license) + ID from a relative in China (the agency will provide the required letter) The price was $185 for the 10 year visa and $115 travel agency fee = $300 total. It helped to speak Chinese though the travel agent was able to print me a form in English and helped me with any questions I had while filling it out. Turnaround time is expected to be about a week and you go pick up the passport in person. (I believe getting it mailed is an option for +$50 if I understood correctly.)

Awful, awful and corny game show entertainment (selling you tickets to play along of course), really bad singers and auctions for art for people who buy art on boats!?!?! Firstly though, the staff on board were all wonderful. No complaints there. But, the wifi was terrible, simply terrible. Even worse it's from Starlink. Not at all worth the insane amount they charge for it. If it's going to spotty, and barely work much of the time then charge approrpriately. The excursions were ALL over priced, very over priced. I thought Disney had the market cornered on over charging and nickle and diming people but they have nothing on curise lines. Good was pretty good, the added charges for the "fancy" restaurants were hit or miss with the food generally being only very slightly better than the free options. Room was decent, bed felt cheap though and after 7 nights I'm very happy to be back on my own mattress. If you do want to do this kind of a trip, save up to get the room with a balcony. I couldn't imagine having been trapped within the ship without some air. If you're your younger, do NOT pick the Jade boat. It's for older people, much older people and don't bring the kids.

I originally wanted aft suites with a view and website and Expedia plays game and says no longer available when in fact they were still available. Ended up getting front suites and I kept asked for upgrade with extra cost. They refused and lied that aft is no longer available. Then NCL offered upgrade auction with around $1000-2000 more than original retail price. Spent over $5000 for 6days cruise to Bermuda with no views of the ocean. Might as well get the inside cabin and paid half. Inaccurate advertising. Websites and Expedia says amazing unobstructed views with pictures of different stateroom. I would get regular balcony next time. Maybe aft but who know what you are going to get. Lesson learned. Don't trust Chat GPT either. It goes based on false advertising on the NCL website or Expedia. Poor or no WiFi. Makes you pay $200-300 for internet who knows what you are going to get. Entertainment and pool area is packed. If you are looking to sit back in your balcony and enjoy the ocean, this is not it. You feel like cattle anywhere you go. Don't think I'd do NCL again. If you have little child, try Disney. If you want adult time I'd try something else. Have done Disney Wish and it was better.
