Out Here Travel

👍👍 An unforgettable and authentic Canadian experience! My trip with Out Here was a really fantastic one.

Bikes & Bites Tours Toronto

Sightseeing tour agency

👍👍 This. Was. The. Best. We only had one day in Toronto and riding bikes with Sean was the perfect way to see as much of the city as possible without trying to fight driving traffic or tired feet walking everywhere. Seriously can not say enough good things about this tour. Sean was punctual, communicat...

Canada Explorer

Tour operator

👍👍 I had one of the most remarkable tour with Snowy Owl Travels (Green & Naomi) to Tobermory , Ontario. Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that Green and Naomi truly cared about us, and did their best to make this trip memorable. This definitely has become the one of the m...

Chopsticks+Forks (Toronto Food Tours)

👍👍 My wife and I chose this company to do a food tour because of the great reviews, the choices available, and that we could book with our Chase points! The fusion tour we did was fantastic.

Local Toronto Food Tours - Kensington Market Food Tours

Zen Buddhist Temple

Buddhist temple

👍👍 I am not sure how to accurately convey my experience here with a simple review. But hopefully, someone will hear what they need to hear in reading what I write here. I started here in 2011, coming my first time simply to learn how to meditate. I had no intention of getting into Buddhism, as the id...

Comfort Tour Canada

Tour operator

👍👍 We did a 3-day trip to Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa and 1000 Islands in August. All I can say is that it's worth the price! We had a great time and really enjoyed every part of the tour.

Leslieville Prosthodontics

Dental clinic

😠 We have had appointments rescheduled numerous times at this office. Our family has been trying to get dental work done before our health benefits expired at the end of the month (which we explained to the front desk repeatedly).

Tour To Niagara Falls

Sightseeing tour agency

🫤 Waited for an hour at pick-up point to get pick-up at all. Then another 1,5 hour at another pick-up place. Bringing us home wasn't great either, because they had to bring some people to the airport first. The service you get is just a taxi to niagra falls. Sure the driver was nice, but paying this a...

Governors Monument

Historical landmark

👍👍 I never knew about this place, just stumbled upon it while enjoying a walk around the ever green brickworks. This is great place for viewing or shooting Toronto's skyline, unfortunately I didn't have the correct lens. Perfect excuse for a future visit. This is sometimes referred to as The Governor's...
