My Story: Al Della Fave ~ Tour Director
My Story: Al Della Fave ~ Tour Director
Upon my retirement from the New Jersey State Police, my wife and I decided to take her mother and father on a tour bus trip to Atlantic City to see a Frank Sinatra impersonator for their anniversary. When we returned to the bus after the show, my wife and I were last to board. As I stepped aboard, I noticed a microphone and being inspired by the show began to sing a Frankie song for the passengers. As they laughed and applauded, the tour operator asked if he could speak to me when we arrived back in Toms River. During the ride back my wife reprimanded me for grabbing the mic and said she hoped the tour operator, who was an acquaintance of hers, was not going to ban us from future trips because of my singing stunt. When we arrived back I reported to the tour operator as he requested and began apologizing. He laughed, told me he loved it and asked if I would be interested in working for him because his regular escort was having health issues. He explained his company catered to seniors looking for an all inclusive travel experience that required a professional capable of making quick on the spot decisions and experienced in dealing with large diverse groups. He stated he was aware of my career with the NJ State Police and felt I surely possessed those qualities. Newly retired and looking for something to keep me busy I quickly agreed to give it a shot. My first trip out was a three day tour to see the sights of Washington D.C. It would end in me finding not a career, but my "Calling". During the trip I was tested with responding to a medical emergency for a passenger who tripped over a curb. He ended up in the emergency room right at the start of the trip. I then had to amend touring schedules, research sight info, resolve passenger concerns, and keep everyone smiling, entertained and most importantly feeling safe. For most who had experienced such a roller coaster weekend it would be the end, but for me it was everything I love in a job. I thrive on comforting, caring for, problem solving and fixing things for people. Better yet, when it was over, I felt like I truly made a difference to a bus load of newly adopted moms, dads, aunts, uncles, brother and sisters. Since that D.C. trip over eight years ago, I have escorted countless bus and airline trips both within the US and abroad. I have found it to be among one of the most rewarding things I've done in life. The smiles, thank you letters, and friendships gained in helping people enjoy life and travel are priceless to me. Travel with me and expect at some point that I will sing/dance, make you laugh/smile, and most importantly you will experience a great travel experience while feeling safe in my care.

Gary Cohen's Fun on Wheels Tours focuses on making every trip — from Broadway shows to multi-day excursions — personalized and memorable. Gary Cohen's Fun on Wheels Tours focuses on making every trip — from Broadway shows to multi-day excursions — personalized and memorable.
LACEY, NJ — Gary Cohen has driven buses all over the country, taking people to see the sights from sea to shining sea.
"I've been to the Midwest, to the south, all the way to the West Coast," Cohen, the owner of Fun on Wheels Tours said recently. For 25 years, he drove buses for other tour companies, delivering people to destinations for a vacation experience, and over that time, he learned a great deal.
"Sometimes the (tour companies) weren't doing enough research on where they sent us," Cohen said, and that led to issues upon arrival that Cohen often had to then try to fix. After dealing with issues and giving ideas and not seeing a response to them, he decided to set out on his own.

It's not just the sights Cohen wants to share, however. The trips, geared toward senior citizens, aim to be affordable and, most important to him, attending to everyone's needs.
"We offer a quality tour at affordable prices so everyone goes home with fond memories," Cohen said.
The "we" in Fun on Wheels Tours is Cohen's friend and a well-known face to many in Ocean County: Al Della Fave. While most know the retired New Jersey State Trooper from his time as the spokesman for former Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph Coronato, Della Fave has spent quite a bit of the last 10 years as the tour director on Cohen's trips, an arrangement they formalized with Fun on Wheels Tours.
Della Fave, who first connected with Cohen when Cohen was driving for another company, stumbled into being a tour director purely by happenstance.
Professional capable of making quick on-the-spot decisions and experienced in dealing with large diverse groups," Della Fave said. His experience with the State Police was valuable especially in emergencies.
Cohen said Fun on Wheels Tours uses "nothing less than four-star hotels" for its multi-day trips and works to make sure everyone has an enjoyable time. The personalized service is most important to him, he said.
"I have found it to be among one of the most rewarding things I've done in life," Della Fave said. "The smiles, thank-you letters, and friendships gained in helping people enjoy life and travel are priceless to me."
"My goal is to make sure every guest has a fun filled experience with memories that will last a lifetime," Cohen said.
