Short Trips Bus Tours & Weekend Getaways

this is the 4^th time I do the Pennsylvania shopping trip, it’s always well organized, always great deals, nice hotel, nice people… will go again

Just a short day trip to Bellfountain and the Tai Chi Centre in Caledon. It was as relaxing as it can get for a lazy Sunday trip out of the city.
I got picked up about 15 minutes from where I live at 10:30am which is a nice time for a Sunday morning –no crack of dawn departure!
The bus was nice and comfy, the tour guides not too intrusive so I got to chat with my friend. They should tell you that you should book together to make sure you sit together as they do assign seats.
The tour guide at the Tai Chi centre was not the most understandable nor did he seem to know a lot about the centre but it was beautiful and relaxing. We did do about 45 minutes of Tai Chi and the demonstrators were very helpful in showing the many moves. The grounds especially the big pond and statue were impressive.
Bellfountain Conservation area is a place I had wanted to go to for ages and finally got to see the bell in the fountain. Lovely relaxing trip. Highly recommend it!
Sash is a wonderful tour organizer and he remembers everyone and makes sure you get to meet others too so you don’t feel alone.

I have gone on a few short trips with Sash and he never disappoints. Good value for everything you get. If you want to see highlights of a city in a couple of days he is the guy to go with. Looking forward to the next one.

I did two tours with Short Trips this year and I was very happy with their tour service. They are well organized, punctual and friendly. I would recommend their service and look forward to doing more tour in the future. Tedros

First trip with Short Trips was really great, well organized. Sash the tour guide certainly takes the time to put his trips together with well thought out ideas, quite unique… we already have a few trips booked ahead … looking forward to many more.

This April I went on the Washington Cherry Blossom tour and Montréal/​Sugar Shack tour. I had a wonderful time on both tours and the weather cooperated. Sash is very organized and detailed-​oriented. I highly recommend Short Trips and will continue to go on future trips with Sash.

Sash, the owner/​operator of this company, was born to do this.
His project planning and execution skills are the best I’ve ever experienced.
There’s a sincerity to what he does. He thinks of every little detail, things that as a guest on his trip, you wouldn’t think of but when he does it, you realize how much more enjoyable it has made the experience. Every little gesture is intended to make your life easier as a guest.
He takes care of everything and he communicates exceptionally well so that you always know exactly what is happening and what will happen next, and after that.
With Sash in charge, you never feel uninformed or stressed or unsure. Truly the only thing left to do is enjoy yourself. That’s what he strives for, and he does it with such a humble, genuine affinity. It’s not forced, it’s not fake, it’s organic. It’s who he is.
His efforts go a long way in setting a very relaxed tone where everyone is truly content and comfortable.
I’ve been on organized tours/​trips with other companies, and also worked on some major film productions that involved travel, and they had a far greater operating budget, but no trip I’ve been on comes close to the level of organization seen here.
Some others might try to imitate him, but anyone who’s been on one of Sash’s trips knows there’s no comparison.
I wish I could go on more of his trips, and I look forward to coming along soon.

I have been on many trips from shopping weekends to wine tours. I just came back from was the Ottawa weekend 4 day trip in May 2014!
Everything he said happen! Did the tour of Ottawa and that was great give a bit of the history and place I may go back to on my own. It would have been nice to stay longer at the tulips area. Then again for the perfect picture it should have gone very early in the morning! It was not a photo group or they would have!
I would go back on any of short trips events; infact I have taken my parents and my friends. They loved it, and we all would return with no problems.
See you on the next trip!

ce sont des voyages organisés par Sash, un homme éminemment sympathique, drôle et attentionné. Lors d’un récent voyage sur Niagara Falls New York et le centre commercial de Walden Galleria près de Buffalo, j’ai été enchanté par l’organisation efficace et agréable de ce petit voyage le temps d’un samedi.
Avec quatre points d’embarquement sur Scarborough, North York, Mississauga et Burlington, le bus est complet quand il arrive aux USA. Les participants semblent se connaître et l’atmosphère y est bon-​enfant: il s’agit d’un déplacement pour faire du «shopping» aux USA. Notre guide Sash est parfaitement organisé: une bouteille d’eau? Des bonbons? Des coupons? Tout est prévu.
Short Trips c’est aussi des voyages de 2 ou 3 jours dans le Nord Ontario, Detroit, Erie, Cleveland et Washington !
