Reservation tickets can get a little more discount, and even if you don't get a discount, it's very economical. It's a bit childish play course, but with young children, especially children who don't like thrills and parents, you can laugh enough and have fun together for a few hours. My child loved golf the most with my husband and I and he wants to do it again.

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.

Easy way to see the Falls, being picked up from the hotel meant there were no worries about trying to navigate around Toronto to find a pick-up point

The tour was great, the part that I didn't like was the Maple syrup tasting.

Everything are well organized. The driver / guide a.
