Kings Point Bus Trips

Vesta partners with Glory Tours, a third party vendor, for all of our coach trips! Glory Tours has been working with Vesta in offering day/overnight trips for over 6 years as a part of the Kings Point operation. In the process of them absorbing all the coach trips, and after analyzing extensive historical data and numerous variables while planning the upcoming bus book, Glory Tours is implementing the following new processes: • For all restaurant ONLY tours, Glory Tours will no longer have a tour guide specialist onboard. The goal is to keep these trips affordable by eliminating the expense of a tour guide for these simple outings. • Glory Tours will also utilize a smaller shuttle bus for trips when it is feasible, and when we have enough residents signed up to also help avoid cancellation of a trip. • Rays Games-Glory Tours is moving designated seats to a less expensive section, but still allowing for some upgrades at an additional cost, if you choose to sit closer. This will also bring the cost down for the more expensive games that are not on Thursdays (Ray vs. Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, etc.)
