What people love about Eastern Canada Tours from Toronto
- Historic Cities of Eastern Canada
Really enjoyed the tour- everyone was very friendly.
- Ontario & French Canada (6 destinations)
Peter was awesome and knew his stuff.
We enjoyed our trip. The tour guide and driver were very professional and knowledgeable and definitely added a valuable element to the trip. The main thing to be aware of is that they reduce costs by selecting hotels that are outside of the downtown areas. They also reduce costs by not providing meals—we only had 3 breakfasts included (2 continental and 1 at a sugar shack tour). So make sure to account for all your meal expenses and whether you want to participate in the additional tours or not.
