    I've used Focus a couple of times from NY-Philly due to necessity. The positives: buses run often…read moreand usually on time, Chargers on bus generally work, relatively cheap at $20 round trip, can book easily online at goto bus site, and convenient drop off locations for me (essentially both Chinatowns) The negatives are the buses are dirty, the people on the bus are rude and loud, and drives are at times are dangerous (I usually sit in the front and watch the driver). Bring your headphones because the people on the bus are loud and unruly. Generally avoid but if you have no other alternative at this cost, go with focus.

    What's not to love? For $35, you can get a round trip pass from NY (pickup in Chinatown or midtown)…read moreto DC (Chinatown). You can order your tickets online by searching "gotobus" but let me tell you... you'll save $2 if you buy your ticket in person. Tickets are "open" here if you buy them in person. That means you look at the time you want to ride the bus and you arrive 30 minutes earlier than your desired departure time. When your bus is here, there will be someone inside announcing it (i.e. 2:30 to DC). When you're lined up to board, the driver/manager will collect your ticket. If you purchased your ticket online, you HAVE to give that printout of purchase to the people manning the ticket windows. There, you'll get a handwritten piece of paper with your time on it; that's your "ticket". I would probably avoid any afternoon-early evening departures because getting out of the city can be quite torturous! Imagine taking 2 hours just to get out of the city...on a Friday (they'll pick up at Chinatown and drive local to midtown for the second pickup). Pro tips: 1) bring a usb+portable charger- sometimes, the bus's USB port won't work 2) sit near the front and not the back- the bathroom smell from the back will creep forward 3) board in Chinatown because you get first dibs on seats! 4) buy tickets in person and you'll save $

    I reached out to this agency when it was time to check this trip off the bucket list. Ahmer was…read moreextremely easy to work with and his knowledge and experience of traveling this continent is vast and impressive. I highly recommend booking a free discovery call if you are looking for a travel agent to help you navigate a trip to the arctic.

    From the owner: My Polar Holiday is a New York City–based travel service that specializes exclusively in Antarctic…read moreexpeditions. We help adventurous travelers book once-in-a-lifetime trips to the White Continent through trusted polar cruise operators—offering expert guidance, personalized service, and access to the best small-group experiences. Unlike traditional travel agencies, we focus solely on Antarctica, which means we know the region inside and out—from the best ships and seasonal routes to what to pack and how to prepare. Whether you're a first-time visitor or checking off your seventh continent, we help you choose the right itinerary based on your travel goals, interests, and budget. We’re a locally based small business with global reach. When you contact us, you get real, one-on-one support from our NYC team—not a call center or chatbot. We help with everything from cruise selection and flights to insurance, gear, and hotel stays. Our advice is honest, and our recommendations are based on experience, not commissions. All of the cruises we offer are operated by companies that follow strict environmental guidelines, including membership with IAATO (International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators). That means your trip is both ethical and low-impact on one of Earth’s most pristine ecosystems.
