Then we got off again, they were 15 min early (from posted time). So we walked a couple of miles so we didn't just have to stand there. 20 min late again after getting here 20 min early so we wouldn't be left on the side of the road again. Ride at your own risk in terms of being flexible. On a positive point, the guys doing the narrative/guides were great! You pay extra for "hop and stop" the pick ups need to be a little more accurate. Don't tell us to be there 5 min early when you need to 25 min early and be willing to wait 25 min after scheduled pick ups.

In 1920, 80% of the glass made in the United States came from Pittsburgh? That Pittsburgh is famous for its two inclined planes on Mount Washington (one being the Duquesne Incline) but at one point, there were as many as 15 inclines in the city? AND that they were built for the steel workers that lived on TOP of those inclines so the workers could make it to the factory (making a few bucks off them too)? Find out WHY the steelworkers lived on TOP of the incline! You can also take a deep dive into the lives of your steelworker ancestors -NOW- at the Heinz History Center. Did you know that 'The Silence Of The Lambs' was shot in Pittsburg? -Eww. Just eww- Do you think I just gave all the information away? I haven't even scratched the surface of what this tour offers you! I had NO IDEA Pittsburgh was SO INTERESTING! The company was unusually considerate and WAITED for us when we got stuck in traffic on our way there. Not long, but WHO DOES THIS? Our guide was so funny (family friendly humor), personable, entertaining, interesting and seemed like he sincerely enjoyed his job. We learned so much and got a wonderful tour of the city! We left feeling a newfound respect and appreciation for Pittsburgh after taking it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This is a review for the First Niagara Pavilion Concert Express. Roundtrip tickets can be purchased…read morealongside your concert tickets through Ticketmaster. If you do choose to see a concert at the pavilion in Burgettstown, I firmly recommend taking advantage of this service as you'll save yourself the trouble of parking, won't have to battle traffic to and from the venue, and will enjoy a nice, air-conditioned ride in a bus or van (this depends on the number of riders per event). Stops include the following: Monroeville (Giant Eagle), Waterfront (Best Buy), Station Square (Commerce Court), Waterworks Plaza (King's restaurant), McKnight Road (Applebee's), North Huntington (Eat 'n Park), Greensburg (Eat 'n Park), and Robinson (Buffalo Wild Wings). The drivers are always professional, courteous, and the bus or van is consistently in apple-pie order. Commuting to and from a show with fellow music fans can be entertaining in itself as there's usually a cast of characters onboard with whom terrific and amusing conversations can be had. Leave the car at home, hop on the wagon, and let someone else drive for a change. You'll alleviate stress, reduce highway congestion, shrink your carbon footprint a little, and make some new friends. P.S. Make sure you arrive at your stop on time! They are unforgiving to stragglers and latecomers. As soon as the last song is performed, immediately make your way to your bus and remember where it is parked. I've been told that the Concert Express leaves 15 minutes after the end of the show. You have been warned. So far, I've yet to miss the bus.

I wanted to stay local and support the local business. I informed them I would prefer a private room and was told it was an extra $500, I said no problem and I would pay by bank check. About 1 1/2 months I notified the agency I still had not got the paperwork and was told they were a little behind and it will come in the mail. I went to their office in Homestead and no one was ever there and their mailbox was full. A month before I called and asked if I was still on the trip they assured me I was and will be getting the package. 11 days prior I called and said I still haven't got the package and I had a question about travel insurance, George told me he will bring it to my house if need be. 5 days before I called and said I have to get the check from the bank as the weekend was nearing. He told me call the office in 3 hours which I did and was told by George DeBolt for "whatever reason you are not on the trip. I said for whatever reason was your incompetence. Maybe if they ran the office with a competent staff and the owner not trying to to do it all to save money,( he is also the tour bus driver). Being Irish and a Steelers fan this was a huge disappointment, especially the closer it got. If you use this agency don't feel safe till you are actually on the plane. Very poorly run.

This is absolutely a treat for anyone with roots here or a fascination with industry and manufacturing. The highlights: Most tours are guided by former steelworkers and people with a first-hand involvement in the steel industry. You get a great overview of the plant, which was the center of life for this community and the lifeblood of the region for more than a century. Our tour placed a heavy emphasis on the engineering and technology of steelmaking, so if that's your thing, it's Christmas. And it's a minor miracle that these two blast furnaces have been preserved. I would suggest that they augment the tours with photos or videos that might help bring these hulking structures to life a bit more, and maybe insert some specific stories about immigrants and working families, union battles, and other colorful bits about Homestead. Sure, a windfall of donor support and a visitor center would go a long way to improving things on that score, but a little shift in emphasis could be done on a budget. Either way, Rivers of Steel is hugely important for preserving the region's steel heritage, and their efforts to extend that support to the community are vital.

Driver, Chaz, switched out with his brother half way through our time claiming he had an "emergency". We were not told if his brother worked for the company or not or even knew how to drive a large van. When his brother came to get us he said they had just switched so Chaz could drive a different group of people somewhere. The van also reeked of smoke when he came to pick us up from our location. Both Chaz and his brother seemed to have a hard time controlling the van which made it scary for all involved. All the owner offered us was a $200 credit to book with them again. The driver and the company have been incredibly unprofessional. I would stay away from them at all costs.
