Excellent Toronto Tour Guide
Katherine did an excellent job showing us around Toronto. She was very friendly and tailored our tour to our interests, answering all our questions, while sharing her knowledge and experiences in the city. A great enjoyable experience that oriented us well to the city. Highly recommended.

Not worth it
While our tour guide did have some information about Torontos history, she only spoke to the person walking next to her and the rest of the group could not hear her. We did not see much in the way of interesting sights and did lots of walking between. Time spent riding the subway I would rather have spent actually seeing stuff. Spadina Museum was the best part and we could have done that on our own without paying for the tour.

This company is not serious!!!!
This company is not serious!!!! Irresponsible and lying guide. He canceled the tour lying that there would be a storm. The hotel receptionist said that it hasn't rained in Warsaw for many days!!! I tried contacting the company via email, whatss and phone and I simply didn't get ANY response.
