There were a handful of us from my run group that came but only two of us decided to use your bus … let’s just say I
guarantee they will use you next year and spread the word here in the Dallas Ft. Worth area. It was perfect!
Paige Long - Texas
We were impressed with our entire first-time experience! Booking through Fit 4 Adventure definitely eliminated the guesswork from what could have been a very daunting task of finding a room in Boston and in a good proximity to the finish line and restaurants and things to do, as well as finding transportation to the Athletes Village.
We really enjoyed dinner at Maggiano’s, especially getting to meet experienced Boston Marathon runners and hearing their stories. We found the entire process easy, organized, and convenient. Thank you!
Rob and Pam Tyler - Ohio
Everything was wonderful. I'm so glad I heard about you from my friend who ran last year's race. The hotel's location is perfect, and the staff was so supportive of the runners. I particularly enjoyed the round of applause when entering the hotel
after the race - what a nice touch.
The bus ride out went smoothly. I'm so glad I took the 6a, as it gave me peace of mind that I could leave my stuff there and
kill time outside in advance of the race if needed.
Will Boland – Virginia
We had a great time. With a wife and 3 kids in tow it was great to turn the worrying over logistics to someone else. The hotel and dinner were the perfect blend of great location, convenience and value for us. Plus, you never got mad when I was late :)
Scott Nystrom – Virginia
I loved absolutely everything about the trip. The hotel was wonderful, and the location was amazing. It made such a difference for my mom who was nervous getting around Boston.
I honestly can’t say enough nice things about the staff there. When they cheered for us as we came inside the hotel after the race, I started bawling. It was so incredibly thoughtful. I also took the shuttle bus. I don’t know how it could be any easier or more efficient. It took all the stress out of any logistics. Thank you so much for all of your hard work. I absolutely loved the trip. If I end up running again next year (I qualified already but who knows what might happen between now and a year, haha). I will definitely be contacting you again!
Taylor Wilson – Texas
Thanks so much for the congrats and for an absolutely perfect travel experience!
The hotel was awesome – great location, great accommodations, great everything right down to the cheers
from the staff when I walked in after the race!! Could not have asked for anything better!!
The bus was perfect! Right on time, dropped us off at a great location, etc.
It was an awesome experience traveling with you and your group! Assuming I can get me another BQ I will be signing up! I am also very intrigued by your other tours so will be figuring out how to work those in as well.
Thanks for everything.
Leslie Singleton – Texas
Thank you for another fantastic Boston marathon experience. The lead up to the week-end is probably the most stressful part with trying to qualify and then making sure all the bookings get done in time to ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip for us and our cheerleaders. You are so attentive to every detail and responsive to my emails which I really appreciate.
Staying at the Park Plaza was perfect as always and the dinner at Maggiano’s, 6am bus, post-race massage and new running socks made it even more special.
Thank you for all your hard work and real interest you take in all of us!
Marie Dunn – Toronto Canada
We'll plan the trip!
