We only had 24 hours in Toronto so was excited to find such a great tour that could show us the highlights in a few hours. Caesar and “in/training” Noah, did a fantastic job. They picked us up at our hotel timely and from there had a wonderful plan mapped out that included the CN tower, the brewery district, harbor boat tour and a drive through the various parts of Toronto. Photo opportunities along the way including the Toronto sign at the city hall plaza. There was time built in for souvenir shopping and a quick poutine lunch. Very knowledgeable, personable and engaging. Thank you for a delightful day!
Very personalized and like the small group and time allowed to get out and see major stops. Local guide was outstanding in knowledge and kindness.
The tour had great potential, but had one serious problem. It was 90 plus degrees and the AC on the bus was not working at all. Accessing CN tower was a breeze and the harbor tour was OK, but it was so hot on the bus that anyone that were physically able choose to walk back to their hotels rather than take the bus back. They had the tour down, but when over half the tour would rather walk than ride, it's a problem.
Had a great experience. Our tour guide, Cesar was very friendly and amazing. Had a great time exploring the beauty of Toronto.
Caesar was phenomenal. Very knowledgeable. He answered all our questions and gave us tips for every stop along the way. I highly recommend this tour. We choose this tour because we wanted to see Toronto without having to do a lot of walking , it worked out perfectly.
Parminder was a great guide. She gave us a lot of information about Niagara Falls and the history of them. She was friendly and took extra care to make sure everyone in the group was comfortable with the rainy weather conditions and walk from Table Rock to the boat tour. Even in the rain, we enjoyed the tour!
Amar was a great guide! Shared many personal experiences which made the tour even better!! The CN tower and harbour tour was great too!
Good tour that covered all the basics of Toronto. It was great to skip the line at the stops and tour guide provided excellent support for our family.
It’s nice to let someone else do the driving, someone who know how to get around Toronto, especially when visiting from out of town
Impressive structure and beautiful landscapes.
