Tom Hanks has spoken about the secret cruise he went on with Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey.
The Oscar-winning actor has been tight-lipped about the luxurious French Polynesian yacht cruise he went on with TV host Winfrey, rock legend Bruce Springsteen and the former President and First Lady, earlier this month (Apr17).
But during an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Friday (28Apr17), Hanks divulged that the trip was better than most people could ever imagine.
"That made the news, it was really interesting. Both Oprah and I were really p***ed off," the 60-year-old joked. "Look, imagine what it could've been like it, triple it. It was off the scale, fantastic."
Winfrey previously also said she "couldn't talk about" the incredible trip off the coast of Tahiti and Bora Bora on board the $300 million yacht The Rising Sun, and told People.com, "What happens on the boat, stays on the boat."
However, Hanks opened up about the once-in-a-lifetime vacation, and said the group was joined by the Secret Service, who are assigned to protect Obama, even after his tenure as U.S. leader had concluded.
Hanks proceeded to share that he even went bike riding with the former Commander-in-chief, but was stuck with a girl's bicycle.
"It was rusted like all over, it only had one gear... All the others were like mountain bikes. It was so bad," he laughed.
When asked by host Colbert what kind of topics the famous group talked about on their trip, Hanks recalled trying to get the former President to divulge classified information to him and Springsteen.
But Obama wouldn't budge, apparently telling the pair: "I'd like to share a ton of stories from it, but they're classified."
