About this trip

Journey along with Columbus resident Shirley Brooks-Jones and the people who befriended her and the other 3,594 passengers who were stranded there for 5 days. You will meet some of the key players, hear their stories, and tour St. John's, Gander, Twillingate and other beautiful Newfoundland sites.

It was not what I expected. Wanted it to be more FUN & outside of Columbus. It was a long day with to many stops. A lot of history to comprehend in one day. I enjoyed some of the stops & to be with friends for the day. I would try another one.

Thank you Charlene for your review. Getting an idea of what people might be expecting from a Mystery trip is helpful, as everyone has different ideas. But your comment about outdoors has given me some ideas for the furture. I'm glad you're going to give it another try. We look forward to traveling with you again. Lisa Busch

We enjoyed this trip. We felt safe. It would be great if you added an additional step to get on and off the bus. The detour was somewhat unnerving, maybe better evaluation of route was needed. The first hotel was adequate( Corning) the second in Niagara was better. Some days seemed more “thought out” than others. Overall, we enjoyed the trip.

Had a great time. Excellent guide and driver who were able to make adjustments to any roadblocks/issues without missing a beat.

It was a really fun trip. Lots of wine tastings with our favorite the Bully Hill Winery! We enjoyed seeing the Corning Glass Museum and driving thru the fingerlakes Region. A favorite of the trip was Niagara Falls which included Maid of the Mist, walking the Rainbow Bridge and seeing the Canadian side, and walking thru Goat Island to see the Horseshoe Falls up close. Driver was fantastic and guide was friendly and good at showing us around.

Despite the long day, what a fun day on Lisa's Mystery Trip with some unexpected, but educational stops! I especially liked the Statehouse and Ohio Theater visits. I would also like to see mystery trips outside the Columbus area!

Thanks for the 5 star revuew Roberta. Yes, day trips are generally longer days than multi-day trips, as we try to get your money's worth from the day. Glad you enjoyed it and we will be offering a couple both outside Columbus in 2025. Lisa Busch ~ Owner
