Local Day Trips

Discover exciting destinations without the stress of driving or planning. Our Local Day Trips offer convenient, affordable outings to some of the region’s most popular attractions. Throughout the year, patrons can enjoy guided trips to places such as New York City, Washington, D.C., unique central PA experiences, and other cultural and historic landmarks.

These trips are designed to make exploring easy and enjoyable—just reserve your seat, hop on the bus, and let us handle the rest.

Comfortable Transportation

  • Shorter trips (1.5–2 hours) typically use our MWR 24‑passenger bus or MWR van, offering a relaxed, small‑group experience.

  • Longer trips (2.5–3.5 hours) are operated on vendor-contracted 54-passenger motorcoaches, providing extra comfort for extended travel.

Why Join a Local Trip?

  • Stress‑free travel with no driving or parking

  • Affordable pricing and easy planning

  • Great for families, groups, or solo adventurers

  • A fun way to experience iconic destinations close to home

Whether you’re looking for a full day in the city, a historical tour, or a scenic escape, our trips make it easy to enjoy the best the region has to offer.
