Testimonials
“Jim Penrod is the most experienced and personable driver I have yet to meet. He is always here early and he knows exactly where to park and let us off. He shares interesting facts about the area as he drives. The entire bus always gives him a standing ovation. Giving him five stars is an understatement! He deserves more. He drives on almost all my Great Getaway Adult Bus Trips, and we always feel so happy when he is assigned to drive us.”
