This was the best trip ever. We were a group of 15 and everything turned out to be great from the places we went visiting till the hotel services. We all loved it and will want to do this again.

I loved this trip as I went to these places as part of my honeymoon. It was good but the places were not so romantic. However, the booking and hotels were well organized. The best part of the trip was visiting the Corning Glass Centre where we saw the demonstration of glass making on the spot. The five days spent was good but I would not recommend this to anyone who is seeking a perfect romantic honeymoon trip.

I am on this tour with my boyfriend for the first time. We both are very happy and wished to go to more places with this tour operator. They took care of the lodging and the transportation, the two main parts.

Quebec City is the most loving place I’ve ever seen in my life. the people of this place are very hospitable. Tour to Niagara Falls is suggested for all the married and unmarried couples. Don’t forget to go for shopping in Quebec City

My wife has back pain and so a bus is a bit of problem. With this fear, she never traveled for many months. This bus gave the desired comfort. The guide helped in all possible ways, yet had the seats been more comfortable, she would have a great time. But it was great.

When I went to Quebec City’s shopping markets, I became crazy by seeing best items at reasonable prices. Secondly, the Niagara’s heart-stealing waterfalls made my trip more special.

On my husband's birthday, I wanted to give him a surprise so I booked a vacation package from here. My husband was so excited because he had never seen Niagara Falls before. The journey was great, Toronto was pretty cool actually, we were served well and hotels were also good. The bus was on time and guide was informative. We were taken to all the places and eateries that are best in town. I and my husband enjoyed a lot and next time I will love to see the full tour of Canada with my friends and family.

Our tour is as enjoyable as ever. The 5 days itinerary is full of activities but manageable. With the Help of Kiko our best tour guide who is very kind, accommodating and approachable made our tour more enjoyable. It is the best tour we ever had. Thanks and Godbless.

Overall the trip was fine, the hotel where we stayed was good and rooms were clean. But my husband got the bad experience with the food served during a tour on day 3. He had to see the doctor so we canceled our 2nd and 4th day of the trip and stayed at the hotel. This was my husband's fault he ate something that has peanuts and he has an allergy. But my kids went along with the tour and pictures shows they enjoyed a lot. It was a fun trip overall and I will book again next year but this time with my eyes open. Thanks.
