- Martha· April 19th, 2025Fabulous. Worth taking. Our tour guide was super friendly and helpful. Loved Niagara Falls, One Thousand Islands cruise and Quebec to die for. Highly recommended.Show moreTrip date: June 2022
- PIPamela· August 9th, 2024Interesting tour, hitting all the high points on the east coast if Canada. Will come back again to spend more time in the cities as the tour touches on everything but not enough time which is expected. Very comfortable hotels and transport. The train to Halifax was great, excellent service and well worth doing, would recommend adding this on to all the trips.Show moreTrip date: July 2024
- AHAndrea· July 28th, 2024Fantastic tour with a fantastic tour guide with a large wealth of knowledge about eastern / French Canada and its history! Canada is a huge country so there are a few days were you spend it mostly on the bus with some stops every few hours, but DO NOT let that discourage you from taking this tour. The beautiful countryside you can see out the bus windows is amazing and the long distance drives are more than worth it for the things you will see!Show moreTrip date: July 2024
- BJByron Jenaro· July 12th, 2024This is a long overdue review and I don’t know why I didn’t take the time to write this before. This Ontario and French Canada tour with Susan was amazing. Everything was well organized and enough time were spent at each attraction. Totally have no complaints!Show moreTrip date: September 2019
- BWBrian· June 1st, 2024This was an "8-day" tour starting in Toronto and ending in Montreal. As a New Zealand author of novels and short stories, I have travelled widely (about 23 countries). This is my fifth coach tour, the others being through Europe with Trafalgar and Expat Explore. In comparison, the hotels used by Cosmos were superior and all but one were located near shops, supermarkets and attractions. On the second day, the tour kicked off with a hiss and a roar as we travelled to Niagara Falls and for me, the highlight was being on a large boat at the bottom of the falls. Old Quebec City was another highlight together with its interesting history involving the French and English. Our tour leader, Nadine, did an excellent job giving the history and attending to our needs. The coach driver, Dave, was also very friendly and helpful. My wife and I took advantage of two optional excursions: A traditional sugar-shack Dinner, and Quebec countryside dinner and Montmorency Falls. I would recommend the latter. At the end of the seventh day, the tour ended. Brian WilsonShow moreTrip date: May 2024

Thank you Cosmos - KimShow moreTrip date: October 2023Review collected by Cosmos
- ACLAIRE· October 20th, 2023This was a great trip and we loved all the cities we visited. James was brilliant and super organised. The overnight train to Halifax was a great experience and so glad we did it. However, we felt the journey took too long, but that was due to train delays. We felt that when we arrived in Halifax, 4 hours late and tired, Carol did not seem to be organised at all. She did not order enough taxis to get 11 people and 10 peoples cases to the hotel. Consequently she didn't realise that 3 ladies had been left behind and had to get their own taxi and was surprised when she was given a receipt for reimbursement for the taxi cost.Show moreTrip date: October 2023Review collected by Cosmos
- AJO-ANNE· October 19th, 2023Tour was as advertised with some good options. The guide ensured the group was on time and the driver was excellent. We appreciated the chance to use the Cosmos hotels both before and after the tour.Show moreTrip date: September 2023Review collected by Cosmos
