Now we are a worldwide company with offices in the United States, Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom.” – Alice I. Sullivan, Chairperson of the Collette Board.Collette is about family As his family grew, Dan’s children took on active roles in the company – in sales, tour development, marketing, tour guiding, and in its charitable arm. Working with a team of dedicated employees, they all stayed true to the original vision of expanding travel opportunities for everyone.

Had a really valuable experience in all included tours. Best was the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island stops since they were not included in my last trip to NYC.

I just wish we were given a little more time and an option to go into the statue of liberty. Also on Ellis Island knowing if you want to research family do that first because it takes 30 min before you even get an appt. The 9/11 memorial was my favorite experience. Overall I enjoyed the history of it all with all the different tours.
