Our tour with Marilyn was great! It was just the two of us with her so we were able to ask lots of questions and get a great idea of how it was living in this city. She took us around the downtown showing us the most iconic parts of the city and telling us plenty of different facts about every place. This is a great option for getting a first approach to the city and figuring out your next plans.

The whole trip was very smooth - we had a really small group of 5 so it was perfect. The pace was just right too and the hot chocolate was delicious! Our guide Chris was really kind, friendly and knowledgeable and he really took the time to make sure everyone was ok.

The trip was in total a perfect hit! The flight was really well done and our captain reacted to the weather conditions on the day the flight took place and it was just perfect. Best thing if you combine both activities (flight and suspension bridge) :)

Salvatore was very informative and his guidance was clear. Amazing trip and seeing the falls in winter made the trip even more special surrounded by snow and ice. Well organised and any questions the team responded to quickly.

Such an awesome little ride! friendly staff and informative, great family experience! Definitely coming back in the summer!
