The 9 Most Amazing Bus Tours In The US

Let’s be honest. When visiting a new city, it’s hard to pick out what to see and where to go. I love traveling, but I’ve always wished for an easy map to tell me all of the places I needed to see ahead of time.

That’s how I became interested in bus tours. All major cities have them, and I like how they take you to all the important sites of your destination. The best part? SAFETY! I don’t have to worry about getting mugged, walking around on my own, and the staff is usually very friendly and helpful.

Keeping this in mind, I thought I would share a few of my experiences and create a list of the best bus tours I’ve been on. Check them out and see if you agree with me.

Keep scrolling to see all the incredible experiences!

Memphis City Tour

Where: Memphis, TN Cost: $37 Why: I loved exploring all the sights in this incredible city. What initially attracted me was getting to see Elvis’ Graceland, but there are many things I got to explore while on this bus tour. Starting with:

• A sightseeing tour along the Mississippi River.
• Saw The Memphis Pyramid, which is now a Bass Pro Shops megastore that includes shopping, restaurants, a bowling alley, and an archery range.
• We also went to The National Civil Rights Museum located at the Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.
• We even stopped at the Peabody Hotel to see the famous ducks do their march.
• Sidenote: A Memphis hotel pickup and drop-off was included on our bus tour, and we also had the option to upgrade with a cruise along the Mississippi River on a paddlewheel boat. We didn’t have the time, but if you go, make sure to leave a comment to share your experience!

Big Bus San Francisco

Where: San Francisco, CA Cost: $40.50 Why: We especially loved this bus tour because it was an open-top tour, and it was a beautiful sunny day. It was a double-decker, and it took us to lots of impressive landmarks.

• We got to explore 49sq miles and stopped at many popular attractions like Pier 39, the Palace of Fine Arts, and Union Square.
• We also got to visit the Golden Gate Bridge’s Vista Point, which I especially enjoyed. You wouldn’t believe the view unless you were there!
• An aspect of the tour worth mentioning is that we went at our own pace. We could hop off at any of the 16 stops, explored at our leisure, and then hopped back on when we were ready… traveling with kids, this option really helped.

Big Bus New York

Where: New York, NY Cost: $44.10 Why: The hustle and bustle of the big apple was a bit intimidating. So this bus tour made seeing the sights effortless.

• This also had a hop-on, hop-off option, so I liked that we got to pick and choose what we wanted to see most.
• We saw Times Square, Battery Park, Greenwich Village, the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, SoHo, and Korea Town. If you happen to go, make sure you save your appetite, the food was A-mazing!
• Our guide was very knowledgeable about everywhere he took us and had an incredibly friendly attitude (very much the opposite of what I’d heard about New Yorkers).

Grand Canyon West Rim And Hoover Dam

Where: Las Vegas, NV Cost: $99 Why:  This bus tour was perfect for our family because I wanted to see the Grand Canyon, and my husband wanted Hoover Dam. Sidenote: The kids grumbled and mumbled about this vacation, but once at the grand canyon, I had them hooked!

• They took us to a restaurant first for breakfast, which really helps if you have little ones. Pick-up was at 6:30 Am, so you can imagine we had no time to grab anything on our way out.
• After breakfast, the first stop was the hoover dam, and may I just say: make sure you have your camera on hand for this one. You won’t believe the view!… My husband might have been right about this one, but don’t tell him that!
• Next, we headed for the canyon itself, but we got to drive through Joshua Tree first. After which, we stopped at Eagle Point and checked out the views on the Skywalk…..Worth it!
• Once at the Grand Canyon, we had lunch ( a meal ticket was included), and we checked out the views. Let me just say that whoever tells you the Grand Canyon is overrated should have their head examined!

Big Bus Washington DC Open Top

Where: Washington, DC Cost: $44 Why: We would’ve gone anyway to see the sights in our capital, but the fact that this bus tour includes entry to Madame Tussauds puts the cherry on top!

• You’ve probably noticed a pattern by now, but I’m a big fan of open-top, and the option to hop on and off. It’s very convenient for my family, and I highly recommend touring cities this way.
• We got to see The White House, U.S. Capitol, Air, and Space Museum, Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial, FDR Memorial, and the Lincoln Memorial, among other things.
• We also visited Arlington National Cemetery and Pentagon City.

I don’t know if this matters to you, but we also chose our bus tours based on them being stroller accessible because we have kids, and if you do too, you can imagine the need when walking around!

The Chicago Crime and Mob Bus Tour

Where: Chicago, IL Cost: $46 Why: We’ve been to this city before. And while I always had a good time, no matter what we did, my husband and I found this bus tour particularly entertaining.

The primary purpose of the tour is to explore Chicago’s gangster scene.

• We drove around and saw where Al Capone, The Untouchables, Hymie Weiss, and John Dillinger, among other thugs, hung out.
• A very knowledgeable guide took us to the Holy Name Cathedral, the Biography Theatre, and we also got to see the bloody St. Valentine’s Day Massacre that happened in 1929 site.
• If you know the area, the tour took us through the Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Old Town, the Loop, and Magnificent Mile.
• The guide even had us hop off the explore some sights on foot.

Charleston See-It-All

Where: Charleston, SC Cost: $32 Why: The colonial culture in the south has always fascinated me. So I saw this as the perfect opportunity to visit a new city, but with an added bonus of a guide who knew all the ins and outs of the area.

• Sights on the bus tour included the Battery, the Citadel, a stroll through the Old City Market, and Hampton Park.
• We also got the chance to see some dazzling views of Fort Sumter, Castle Pinckney, and the Sullivan Island Lighthouse.
• Our tour also included free passes to the Charleston Powder Museum.
• Besides the obvious, what I loved most about the tour was the beautiful houses and gardens. I also saw lots of wrought iron art. And you wouldn’t believe how many old churches this city has!

City Tour of New Orleans

Where: New Orleans, LA Cost: $34 Why: I’ve been to New Orleans before when I was younger. As you can imagine, my friends and I stuck to the French Quarter, which is always amazing to visit. But now that I’m older and with a family, we wanted a different type of cultural experience…And we wanted to see it ALL!

• The areas we covered were the French Quarter, Treme, the Esplanade, the Garden District, and the Metairie Cemetery.
• The guide was so wonderful! He explained in such a way that we felt like locals when we left this incredible city!
• Worth mentioning is that most of the places the bus tour takes you on will make you feel like you’ve traveled back in time, especially in the Garden District.
• Another favorite was visiting the Metairie Cemetery. While cemeteries aren’t usually my happy place. It was interesting to see this specific one, considering I’ve seen it many times in movies and TV shows.

Dallas and Fort Worth Sightseeing Bus Tour

Where: Dallas, TX Cost: $120 Why: This is one of the longest bus tours we’ve taken, but it was well worth it to see two cities in one tour. The guide also shared with us many experiences, only known by locals. And while he took us to many interesting sights, a few I would like to highlight are:

• The John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza. Which is a monument erected to pay homage to the former United States President.
• We also got a taste of the south at Billy Bob’s. It’s a huge country music honky-tonk type of place with an indoor rodeo arena, mechanical bulls, and bars.
• The Livestock Exchange Building. This was once an office for cattle traders. You wouldn’t believe the architecture unless you visited yourself!
• And speaking of livestock, the guide also took us to Pioneer Plaza. It’s a beautiful park that also includes some livestock frozen in time through the statues.
• We even saw the city’s first house. It’s called the John Neely Bryan Cabin, and it’s interesting to see it right in the middle of a bustling city!

So to conclude, out of all the vacations my family has taken over the years, the most hassle-free, I have to admit, have been our bus tour experiences. Let me know if you’ve been on some of these tours. I would love to hear a different perspective! My only regret? We didn’t get enough pictures!!!

Tour Details

Moscow metro tour: architectural styles of the subway.

Duration: 2 hours

Categories: Culture & History, Sightseeing

This metro tour of Russia’s capital and most populous city, Moscow, is your chance to get a unique insight into the beautiful and impressive architecture of the city's underground stations. Admire their marble walls and high ceilings representing Stalin's desire for glory after World War 2, and see first-hand how the interiors change with the rise of new political eras. Your guide will lead you through the complex network, which is one of the most heavily used rapid transit systems worldwide, with over two billion travelers in 2011.

Opened in 1935, Moscow’s underground system, now 190 miles (305 km) long with 185 stations, is today one the largest and most heavily used rapid transit systems in the world. On this Moscow metro tour, discover the impressive architecture of Moscow’s underground stations and learn how they reflect the Soviet era.

Getting around by metro, your local guide will take you through parts of Moscow’s infamous history. Stop at stations built during the time of the USSR (Soviet Union) that are praised as one of the most extravagant architectural projects from Stalin’s time. After World War 2, he was keen on establishing Stalinist architecture to represent his rising regime and a recognized empire. Learn how when his successor started the de-Stalinization of the former Soviet Union in 1953, the extravagancy of the architecture was toned down.

Discover how the unique character of each station reflected several different eras. While stations like Kievskaya and Slavyansky Bulvar have pompous halls and high stucco ceilings brimming with extravagant decorations, those built later, like Volzhskaya, are lightly adorned with sparse furnishings. Architect Alexey Dushkin and painter Alexander Deyneka were just two of the many artists who made these magnificent landmarks possible.

Revel in Moscow's glory days, as well as the years of scarcity, on this fascinating Moscow metro experience. Conclude your tour at one of the central stations in Moscow. If you're lucky, you may even find the secret entrance to the unconfirmed Metro-2, a parallel underground system used by the government -- a mystery which has neither been denied nor confirmed today.

Packers set off on Tailgate Tour, with an eye on Brazil as well

GREEN BAY – The Green Bay Packers still are in the running to open the season in Brazil, but are unlikely to go to London this year.

The Philadelphia Eagles open the season on Sept. 6, a Friday, in São Paulo at Arena Corinthians, home to the Brazilian soccer team the SC Corinthians. The team that will play the Eagles has yet to be announced by the NFL. The Packers or the Cleveland Browns are reported to be the top choices. The Packers expect an announcement at any time.

"We are still in the running," Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy said Tuesday before the Packers Tailgate Tour bus departed Lambeau Field for southern Wisconsin. "I think we are either the first- or second-most popular team in Brazil. We are kind of the people's team. People really like the idea of a community-owned team. If we are chosen, we'll gladly go."

Teams designated for international games this year include the Eagles in Sao Paulo; the Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars in London; and the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany. The Packers have road games against the Eagles, Vikings, Bears and Jaguars. Divisional games are no longer automatically excluded, but Murphy said a London trip was not likely.

"I don't think that's a possibility," he said.

All things Packers: Latest Green Bay Packers news, schedule, roster, stats, injury updates and more.

Packers Tailgate Tour will cover 500 miles in southern Wisconsin

The 500-mile tailgate tour, which includes current and former Packers players, plus Murphy, will continue through Saturday. Announced stops include Kenosha, Beloit, Platteville and Sun Prairie. Unannounced stops also will be made along the way.

Current players on the bus include Elgton Jenkins, Kenny Clark and Rasheed Walker. Former players include Bryan Bulaga, Mike Daniels and Alex Green. Jenkins was on the tour in 2023, as well.

"I had a lot of fun last year," Jenkins said. "I like interacting with kids."

The current and former players each said they were excited about the Packers' prospects this year. In 2023, the Packers, against expectations, finished with a 9-8 record, defeated the favored Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs and nearly defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the next round. They did defeat the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs during the regular season. Last year was expected to be a rebuilding year for the Packers.

More: Packers Tailgate Tour, featuring current, former players, to visit southern Wisconsin

Jenkins said Packers players during the offseason are getting ready for the coming year. "We have to be ready to start fast," he said.

Rasheed Walker gets positive reviews from bus mates

Rasheed Walker, who finished last season as the starting left tackle, got positive comments from Jenkins and former Packers tackle Brian Bulaga, who said he was looking forward to spending time with him on the bus.

"I could always kind of put a couple pointers in his ear for him and pick his brain a little bit about how he's doing and what he's thinking out there," Bulaga said. "At the end of the season, when he finally won that job over, I thought he did a nice job."

The Packers like paring former and current players on the tour because it gives the veterans a chance to mentor the young players. Jenkins and Clark are seasoned pros, but Walker, in only his second season last year, is still finding his way.

"If you're an offensive lineman and you're a young guy and you're starting, you're expected to hold your weight. It doesn't matter if you're a rookie, it doesn't matter what year, you're expected to hold your weight and play well," said Bulaga, who was drafted in the first round in 2010, became a starting tackle during the season and played in the Super Bowl.

Daniels, Clark looking forward to new defensive scheme

Defensive lineman Mike Daniels, who played for the Packers from 2012-18, is on his first tailgate tour. A fan favorite in Green Bay, Daniels said he was excited to meet fans in other parts of the state.

"People who don't live around the stadium have a different appreciation when they see the guys in green and gold," he said.

Daniels and Clark said they both were excited to see what new defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley will bring to the team. They are looking forward to a more simplified scheme, which will allow players like Clark to take off.

"You might as well get Kenny Clark's Hall of Fame jacket ready now," Daniels said.

Clark said Hafley will challenge everybody to be great.

"I'm excited about (the new scheme) being more disruptive. That's better for me," Clark said. "It will give you that mentality to cut it loose."

Alex Green had a brief career, playing for Green Bay in 2011 and 2012, and the New York Jets in 2013, but that made him no less welcome as a Packers alumnus.

"You always hear, once a Packer, always a Packer," Green said.

The Neon Museum is a captivating destination that showcases the city’s iconic neon signs. You can explore the outdoor exhibition, “Neon Boneyard,” and be transported back in time as you marvel at the meticulously restored and preserved signs that once illuminated the streets.

We visited the Neon Museum as the sun was setting, and it ended up being a great time to visit. We got to watch the lights come on as the sky started to darken, and it was so pretty.

This morning (April 4), Cody Rhodes tweeted:

Before you hear it elsewhere - my tour bus caught fire last night Everybody is safe and okay The 2 items I grabbed before I got off will probably pop wrestling fans Again, thank you @PhillyFireDept — Cody Rhodes (@CodyRhodes) April 5, 2024

Since — thank goodness — Rhodes told us right up front that no one was hurt when his bus caught fire on Thursday night, his message prompted a lot of jokes about the lengths Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would go to mess with his WrestleMania rival.

It also led to a more detailed explanation from Cody on The Pat McAfee Show this afternoon. The man who will main event both nights of WrestleMania XL said his bus didn’t “burn to a crisp, but it was up in a big fireball for a moment”. The things he rescued from the bus are pictures of his wife & daughter, and his wrestling boots. He thanked the Philadelphia Fire Department for putting out the blaze, and that they were able to save a lot of stuff... although his signature suits have a smokey odor to them today.

"I'm coming in a little bit hot and here's why.. Last night at 1AM my bus driver yelled we gotta get off this bus it's on fire.. There ain't NOBODY here who is more ready for WrestleMania than me" ~ @CodyRhodes #PMSLive #WrestleMania pic.twitter.com/yO7EWO7OGJ — Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) April 5, 2024

And where did Rhodes crash with his own sleeping quarters uninhabitable? He told McAfee that his Night One tag partner Seth Rollins offered him shelter on his bus. With a friendship like that, how can they lose tomorrow night?

Probably they way everyone who wrestles The Bloodline loses, but that was still a nice gesture from Rollins (and his wife, we presume). Anyway...

Quite a story. Glad everyone is okay, and we’ll see where it ends up fitting in the legend of WrestleMania XL when all is said and done.

Cody Rhodes Says His Tour Bus ‘Was Up In A Big Fireball’, Everyone Is Okay

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

Cody Rhodes says he’s more ready for WrestleMania than anyone after his tour bus caught on fire.

The day before WWE WrestleMania 40 Night One, Cody Rhodes revealed that his tour bus caught on fire. He wrote that everyone was safe and okay.

Before you hear it elsewhere – my tour bus caught fire last night ? Everybody is safe and okay The 2 items I grabbed before I got off will probably pop wrestling fans Again, thank you @PhillyFireDept — Cody Rhodes (@CodyRhodes) April 5, 2024

Rhodes then described what happened during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show . He noted that he grabbed pictures of his wife and daughter, as well as his boots for WrestleMania, as he fled the bus.

“This is where my mindset is. Last night, one a.m., laying in bed, it’s the first time I’m gonna get a little sleep before we get into this big, big, big event that is WrestleMania. All of a sudden, loud bang at the side of my bus. Thought it was a gun shot. Terrified. Clammed up. Next thing I know, my bus driver tells, ‘We gotta get off this bus, it’s on fire.’ So my bus, it didn’t burn to a crisp, but it was up in a big fireball for a moment.

“The reason I share this story is I’m here this morning, non-flinching, and I grabbed two things off my bus when I thought, ‘This is it. This is the end.’ I grabbed a picture of my daughter and a picture of my wife, and then I grabbed my WrestleMania boots. There ain’t nobody here who is more ready for WrestleMania than me.”

University of South Carolina student takes the wheel to stop bus after driver is ejected in crash that injured 11

A t least 11 people - including 10 University of South Carolina students and a bus driver - were injured when a charter bus crashed in southern Mississippi Friday afternoon on the way to New Orleans for a fraternity formal, according to the university.

“The University of South Carolina was informed tonight of an accident in Mississippi involving a charter bus carrying USC fraternity members and their guests traveling to an event in New Orleans,” the university said in a statement to CNN.

The bus was carrying 56 students when it crashed around 3 p.m. on Interstate 10 in Hancock County, according to a news release from the Mississippi Highway Patrol. Nine students were taken by ambulance to a local hospital, while the bus driver and another student were airlifted in critical condition.

The driver lost control of the bus after one of its tires blew out, Bay St. Louis Police Chief Toby Schwartz told  CNN affiliate WLOX .

“According to what students said, she stood on that steering wheel with every ounce of energy to keep that steering wheel straight,” Schwartz said of the driver.

At one point, the wheels on one side of the bus lifted into the air, causing the bus to lean on one side. When the bus came back down on all wheels, the front windshield shattered and the driver was ejected, according to Schwartz.

But the bus kept moving. The bus traveled “out of control” for half a mile on the interstate, Schwartz said.

In what Schwartz described as a “heroic action,” a student grabbed ahold of the wheel and regained control of the bus, bringing it to a stop.

“Because of the bus driver’s quick actions, and then the students’ quick actions, right now we don’t have any fatalities,” Schwartz said.

The crash remains under investigation by Mississippi Highway Patrol.

“USC is working closely with local authorities on the scene to obtain updates on our students and to assist in whatever capacity we can,” the university said. “Our thoughts go out to the students involved in the accident and those affected by it.”

The unmissable addition to Disneyland’s Star Tours ride? Space whales

• Show more sharing options
• Copy Link URL Copied!

Disneyland’s Star Tours: The Adventures Continue has proved to be one of the theme park’s most versatile attractions.

Though perhaps no longer the groundbreaking technological marvel that it was when it debuted in 1987, the flight simulator ride has shifted with the franchise, withstanding cultural trends and aligning with whichever version of “Star Wars” is popular at the moment — or in need of a marketing boost.

The latest update to Star Tours brings the ride into the Disney+ era, with nods to series such as “The Mandalorian,” “Ahsoka” and “Andor.” More noteworthy, at least for Disneyland guests, is that the centerpiece of the latest upgrades is a scene that provides a slight tonal shift for the attraction, one focused, albeit briefly, on slowing down and giving so-called starspeeder riders a look at one of “Star Wars’” more majestic creatures. Star Tours will now rocket guests straight to a moment that boasts a close-up with the purrgil, essentially large, mysterious space whales that move with a galactic grace.

Travel & Experiences

Want to see Disneyland’s most advanced animatronics? Visit Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

With new droids at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and some of the most lifelike characters ever created at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Disney is looking to wow guests.

April 4, 2024

For the 3-D attraction, its a moment that provides a breather. The motion simulator lingers for a few seconds, and our makeshift animatronic captain, the golden droid C-3PO, turns to face riders. C-3PO shifts into tour guide mode, appearing in awe of the purrgil and commenting on how serene the animals are.

“This will be different from other sequences, to have a moment,” said Tom Fitzgerald, a senior creative executive with Walt Disney Imagineering, the company’s secretive arm devoted to theme park attractions, when asked about taking a patient approach to the scene. “You don’t get many moments. It’s so compact. But it’s a moment to let people look at the beauty of this, and the 3-D gives you the scale of those creatures.”

The additions to Star Tours are arguably the centerpiece of Disneyland’s all-things-”Star Wars” promotion Season of the Force , which debuted this past weekend and runs through June 2. The “Star Wars” festival also sees new droids making their way to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge through the duration of the event, as well as the return of Space Mountain overlay Hyperspace Mountain and a new free scavenger hunt that aims to get players to pay close attention to the minute details of Galaxy’s Edge.

Fitzgerald has been with Star Tours since the ride’s beginning, and oversaw the latest Star Tours additions, which further deviate the attraction from any strict “Star Wars” timeline and instead focus it on being a sort of “greatest hits” for the brand. The purrgil scene also features Rosario Dawson’s Ahsoka Tano and the character’s svelte, fast-rotating starship above the planet of Seatos. Tano’s ship inspired Imagineers to see if they could add some new tricks to the attraction, mainly in the way the simulator can move. When Tano’s vessel twists and spins, for instance, the starspeeder attempts to mimic it, endeavoring to create the feeling of a 360-barrel roll. At other times, the starspeeder glides among the purrgil.

Key to Star Tours’ longevity, and what makes it the rare motion simulator that doesn’t feel rooted in the 1980s, is its ability to create new sensations via its movements. The ride now has more than 250 storyline variations, and when adding to the attraction, Imagineers are looking for ways to heighten the contrast among its various scenes, both tonally and in its maneuvers. Though Star Tours is typically randomized — for the foreseeable future, and definitely throughout Disneyland’s spring Season of the Force promotion — all riders are guaranteed to visit the new location and receive an early-flight transmission from one of the recently added characters.

“How do we make each of the places we go have a different color palette?” says Fitzgerald, who then recalls different “Star Wars” planets that can be featured in the attraction’s random programming. “Mustafar is all lava. Kashyyyk is all green jungle. So they feel very different when you get the combos. And then motion-based. Could we do a barrel roll? That’s the fun of doing it, and programming it and trying it. And we needed something else. What have we not done? So with the purrgils, what if we do skiing through the tentacles? We had never done that. So those are the two big motion changes.”

The attraction is also livened up by appearances from Dawnson’s Tano, Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor and a masked Din Djarin from “The Mandalorian.” While the latter is played and portrayed by Pedro Pascal on the Disney+ series, many have noted that the Djarin on “Star Tours” features a slightly different vocal cadence than Pascal, and an Imagineering spokesperson says the company is not revealing its voice actors for the attraction. Nevertheless, “The Mandalorian” moment features some comic relief — and clever 3-D usage — courtesy of Grogu, colloquially refered to as “baby Yoda,” and his penchant to use Force powers to toy with and eat frogs.

Dine at a table that moves you from room to room? A look at the future of theme parks

Here are 5 takeaways from the Themed Entertainment Assn.’s annual gathering in Hollywood.

March 20, 2024

The three appear as transmissions that help define the suddenly urgent narrative of Star Tours. “Each one is different,” Fitzgerald says. “Mando and Grogu we played for comedy. And Andor is mysterious. You don’t see his face. You see this thing coming toward you. Is that a friend or foe? And then he pulls his hood and the music changes.” Tano, meanwhile, arrives like an old friend who knows C-3PO and fellow droid R2D2. Riders are advised to pay close attention to the opening cinematic in a ship’s hangar, as there is a new randomized opening that features Tano in a lightsaber battle with Stormtroopers.

As for why the new additions perhaps lean a bit more heavily on “Ahsoka,” as it is that series that features the planet of Seatos and the purrgil, Fitzgerald had a simple answer: yes, it’s the space whales.

With access to early scripts from Lucasfilm, Fitzgerald says he singled out the purrgil scenes. “Reading about that, not knowing what they looked like initially, I was going, that’s going to be really cool.” And, at least for a few seconds, relatively calming.
