1.00We have booked with this organization, which takes a significant margin on the service of other tour operator, and that it does not fulfill its commitments and does not give you the service Announced despite confirmation by email. A scam. To flee urgently to avoid, because these dear people bring you nothing. It just has to be on the Internet, things to see in a city, but especially do nothing with them because they are brokers who sell pseudo services much more expensive than normal rates. No After Sales Service nobody cares. The benefit cost me twice as much, because I had to add Tu what they had promised to make me do when they did not fulfill their contract. They didn’t even give me the promised 10% discount. Besides. I’ve had this company on the phone several times I’ve sent them several emails, they don’t care about you and they don’t care about handling a problem. Avoid
Fabulous day and guide

5.00We loved our tour of Toronto with Ryan. Ryan met us at our hotel which was a little way out of the city, an absolute blessing because we would never have found our way around. We covered so much ground and really got to see so many of the sights. Ryan let us go at our own pace and spend as much time as we wanted looking and absorbing the atmosphere. We felt like locals getting to experience not only the touristy things but got to experience many of the local delights. I would have liked a little more of the history of the buildings, but we really got to see a lot. My 18-year-old son was really taken with Ryan he is a good people person. Ryan gave us great recommendations and he came all the way back with us to make sure we got back safely.
