What people love about Coach / Bus Tours in Eastern Canada
- Best of Eastern Canada (End Toronto)
The tour was everything I expected and more. Beautiful country (Canadian Rockies) Tour Guide (Ben Hutchinson) was very knowledgeable and his enthusiasm was infectious.
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.
Essence of Eastern Canada (End Montreal)
- Newfoundland & Labrador
Tour Radar arranged the perfect trip. The tour guide was outstanding and the bus driver excellent. The only negative was the bunch at Globus. Our trip was scheduled in 2020, 2021, and 2022, but cancelled several times due to Covid. My husband uses an electric wheelchair and I filled out the forms FOUR times and submitted those in 2020, 2021, and twice in 2022. Each time I included copies of a product brochure showing weight, dimensions, how it came apart, and so on. The day before our trip the people at Globus were still reviewing those forms. That is total incompetence and a complete failure at customer service.
What our customers ask about Coach / Bus Tours & Trips in Eastern Canada
What are the key attractions covered on most bus tours in Eastern Canada?
Eastern Canada coach tours visit top destinations starting with Niagara Falls where boats take visitors to the base of the cascading water. In Quebec City travelers explore the UNESCO-listed Old Town and historic fortifications while Ottawa tours showcase the Parliament Buildings and Rideau Canal. Montreal's highlights include the Old Port district and Mount Royal park. Smaller historic towns such as Kingston and Niagara-on-the-Lake add local character to the itineraries. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Quebec city was the high lite of the tour Montreal next and the rest were mere stops in between. Hotels and food were good to excellent."
How much free time do I have to explore independently on a coach tour in Eastern Canada?
Most Eastern Canada tours mix scheduled activities with independent exploration. Major cities like Montreal and Quebec City offer half to full days of free time after morning guided tours. Visitors can spend afternoons browsing Ottawa's Byward Market or visiting museums at their own pace. Two-night stays at centrally located hotels like Toronto's Fairmont Royal York or Quebec City's Château Frontenac allow for unhurried exploration. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "We were given guided tours as well as the option of free exploration time in each city. The ease of travel and mind were definite benefits of the bus tour."
How do bus tours in Eastern Canada accommodate stops for sightseeing and relaxation?
Tours include regular breaks every 2-3 hours with extended stops at key sites. Visits to places like Peggy's Cove lighthouse typically last 1-2 hours allowing time to explore the village and take photos. At UNESCO sites such as Lunenburg guided walking tours are followed by free time. Hotels including Delta Hotels in Ottawa are selected for their proximity to attractions. One TourRadar traveler shared: "Our guide balanced structured sightseeing with adequate free time perfectly. We had ample opportunities to take photos at places like the Bay of Fundy and explore charming towns at our own pace."
What unique scenic experiences can travelers enjoy from the comfort of a bus tour in Eastern Canada?
Large windows offer clear views of the Laurentian Mountains St. Lawrence River Thousand Islands and seasonal fall colors. The route between cities shows the transition from Toronto's urban landscape to Quebec's French influences. Popular photo stops include Montmorency Falls and Cape Breton Highlands. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The scenery was a pleasure to see. Gives us all a better perspective of Eastern Canada as we are all Western Canadians."
What are my accommodation options on multi-day coach tours in Eastern Canada?
Tours generally use centrally located 3-4 star properties such as the Fairmont Chateau Laurier in Ottawa Chelsea Hotel in Toronto and Best Western Ville-Marie in Montreal. Rooms come with standard modern amenities and convenient access to attractions. Select tours feature stays at historic properties like Quebec City's Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac. As one TourRadar reviewer noted: "Hotels overall were good. There were some that were a little out of the cities however the tour guide and driver did their best to accommodate by driving everyone back into the city."
What's the typical daily schedule like on a coach tour in Eastern Canada?
Days begin around 8:00 AM with breakfast at hotels such as Quebec City's Fairmont Le Château Frontenac or Toronto's Omni King Edward. The schedule includes 2-3 main stops with guided tours lasting 1-2 hours each. A typical day might feature a morning tour of Montreal's Notre-Dame Basilica lunch in Old Montreal and an afternoon visit to Mount Royal. One TourRadar traveler noted "The tour was good with a good tour guide and an excellent driver. We did not like some of the stops for lunch. The pace was good."
