We loved our guide Alisha. She had a great upbeat personality that made the tour more exciting. She gave a lot of good information regarding history and places to go or places to eat. We loved that the tour due to it hitting all the spots that we were interested in seeing. It would be a nice option for people that want to stay at the locations longer to pick an extended time tour. We liked the time frame we were at for each location but if we had an elderly person with us, I could see them wanting more time at each location or needing more time to get to the next location. We loved and will recommend to family and friends in the future.

Idaina was very informative and accommodating. My 2 friends and I got lost trying to find her at the Skylon Tower but she made sure we got there and waited a few extra minutes for us. The tour was very good but I wish it had more information on the walking distances. We highly recommend Idaina as a guide!

The hornblower experience was great even though we could here none of the commentary. No where on your site does it mention the amount of walking required or the # of stairs or the pace. It felt rushed...both time at the sites and the walking pace. Our guide stopped a few times to talk about what we were looking at but the rest of the time he would speak while walking but only the few right beside him could hear. There were only 4 of us in the group. Why call it a guided tour when we are simply dropped off at the venue door?

We liked the hornblower trip the most and steppping outside in the deck after the walk under the fall. The tower and the walk in the tunnels were OK The prices are too high
