| For the most part it was a great, but the end was a REAL buzz kill. The last stop was Mordern in Georgetown... which was the biggest mistake ever! The bus ended up leaving half of our party behind and we had to spend $35 on a cab to take us home. While I understand the bus needs to leave when bus needs to leave, it makes no sense to take a large party (35-45 people ) into a loud, crowded, dark club where no one can hear anyone, let alone find people to recruit for the bus departure. The night would have been perfect if the bus had just taken us back to Front Page. This would have also allowed the other stops to be a bit longer. At the first bar (Rugby) by the time I ordered a drink we had to start walking to the boat. The boat was fun- drinks were weak, you basically paid $3 for a small glass of marg. mix.
Sign of Whale was a blast. Would i do it again? Probably not- but I do reccomend doing it atleast once. Don't forget to stock you cooler for the bus ride!!!! |

| The Boomerang Bus...for Friday, July 20th..I found to be a little younger for my late 30s, early 40s taste.
The boat trip was a nice break from the bus.
With that said, I would definitely take another trip on the Boomerang Bus with the knowledge of the recommended age group and the general theme of that night. |

Definitely the best night EVER!!

| We had a bachelorette party on the Boomerang and it was absolutely perfect ! We had the best time possible, the host we're amazing! I would reccomend this to anybody who wants to see a little af the city without dealing with the normal troubles... like paying an arm and a leg on fees (parking, door charges) and getting lost in the city. Good times.....Priceless memories! |

| We took the bus for a bachlorette party and really enjoyed ourselves. The guides were great and the boat was a blast. Some of the bars were crowded and I recommend ladies wear comfortable shoes because there is some walking involved. |

| To my surprise, I saw two boomerang buses waiting outside Front Page. Some were already bringing in coolers in the bus, which made me think this was not their first time at all. So, I went inside Front Page to register which I was not aware of until a friend told me. After registering, I went outside to ask the itinerary of the buses. The first bus read a handwritten list of all the 4 places they plan on taking us. I asked the 1st bus' driver & host for the 2nd bus' itinerary - they told us to ask the driver & host on the other bus. So, we head on to the 2nd bus to ask where it would take us and they could not give us an answer! it was a little fishy thinking why this bus did not know where it would take us. So, we decide to hop on the 1st bus since it was the only bus that had an itinerary on board. Now, this is where the problem starts... I had a group of 18 girls for the night and they said they could not fit the rest of them in the bus. This caused a problem because we liked the itinerary on the 1st bus, but in order to ride with everyone we had to get on the 2nd bus. To make a long story a tad shorter, i think Boomerang Bus should already set aside the riders to each specific bus so this problem does not occur again. I also think Boomerang Bus should try to send an itinerary to the people who purchased tickets maybe a few days before the event. Overall, the night turned out great due to the large party we had. Although most of the clubs/bars were still empty because the night started early -- bringing this many girls made-up for it. However, by the end of the night we already started to lose some girls because we did start drinking a bit early (too drunk to go on). I would recommend the bus to anyone but if the initial part of departure was more organized, then it would be just dandy! |

| I originally thought that the bus was just going to take us on a tour of the city. But then when I was ordering my tickets I noticed that we would be going to different clubs. I had a ball, and I must go again. I told all of my friends about it and I will definately be taking some of my friends with me. |

| Myself, my boyfriend and my friend from out of town went on the bus. My boyfriend and I just moved here so we aren't exactly good hosts for showing people around, so I found the boomerang website and thought it would be fun...and boy was it! We all had a great time and I am planning on going on it each time I have friends visiting me from out of town! |
