B minus

The boat driver and the tour guide were both wonderful. But we were at the back of the boat - and understood less than 1/2 of what she said - speakers are poorly placed and the boat is actually noisy. Not sure how that can be remedied, other than better placed speakers

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback and for joining us on the tour. We're delighted to hear that both the captain and tour guide helped make your experience enjoyable. We also appreciate you bringing the audio issue to our attention. We're sorry that sitting at the back of the boat made it difficult to hear the narration. Clear commentary is an important part of the experience, and your observation about the speaker placement and engine noise is valuable feedback. We're always looking for ways to improve the tour, and comments like yours help us identify areas where we can do better. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you aboard again in the future.

Fine.

Went away a little later due to circumstances, but were also ashore before the end time. Nice boat trip with warm weather, but unnecessary if you have already pwp the Ferry or are still going to pack to toronto island.

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your perspective regarding the experience compared to taking the ferry. Our harbour tours are designed to offer a different experience, with guided commentary, local history, and unique views of Toronto's waterfront and islands that many visitors don't get from regular transportation services. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you aboard again in the future.
