Wanda Coach

Pros: The only think that I would improve is to have buses with outlets, but I'm not sure what the decision is to not include them. Other than that, everything was available. My return trip was very good. Cons: Buses with outlets. Tips: If you chose to take a 4+ hour trip, then be prepared for that, especially if your bus is full and you're sitting next to someone that you don't know. Make sure all of your devices are charged, and consider bringing a backup battery. A blanket would help, as well as a neck pillow. The buses are adequately cooled, so you don't have to worry about temperature. Don't stare at your map too much, trying to see how long it's going to take to get there. Consider lowering your caffeine intake to get some rest before your long journey.

NYC’s five boroughs feature more than 1,700 parks, including the gorgeous Central Park, making it one of the best cities for outdoor activities in the country. As for the nightlife, there’s no argument that New York City is the biggest party hub in the U.S.

With three major bus and train stations in Manhattan alone – Port Authority, Grand Central & Penn Station – and three nearby airports, NYC is one of the predominant travel hubs in the world.

Baltimore

Baltimore is a seaport in Maryland best known for its crab cakes and baseball legend, Babe Ruth. As there is plenty to see in Charm City, you'll be singing "Good Morning, Baltimore'' as soon as you experience all of the sights and activities this quirky town has to offer.

Some of Baltimore's most impressive attractions are centered in and around Inner Harbor. This scenic waterfront is filled with historic ships, dating as far back as the Civil War in the case of the USS Constellation. Alongside shops and restaurants, Inner Harbor also hosts the National Aquarium, the Maryland Science Center, and several entertainment venues where you can catch live music. Enjoy a bird's-eye view of the harbor from atop Federal Hill Park, or if you prefer the view that inspired "The Star Spangled Banner," head out to Fort McHenry, known for its role in the War of 1812.

Baltimore is one of the stops on Wanderu's recommended East Coast wine tour, but don't worry about racking up a hefty tab; luckily, Baltimore is also one of the cheapest drinking cities in the U.S., with the cheapest bottle of beer going for just $1.42.
