  Very nice tour. Would have liked more time in a place or two but, overall, good.

  Thank you for your review during your time in Canada. We hope that you were able to watch the cascading waters of Niagara Falls and stroll through meadows, rolling hills and farms of Quebec’s Eastern Townships. We understand that some cities might have felt a bit rushed, but we always try to make sure our guests have enough time to enjoy each location. We appreciate your feedback and have shared your comments with our Product Development team to establish what potential improvements we might make in the future. That said, we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again; until then, we remain committed to our guests.

  Optional excursions were reasonably priced. Suggest you put together other places in each city as a walking guide or short taxi or uber ride. Example access to close by museums open late and could walk to from hotel. Free time activities and what they are and where located is helpful.tour guide can offer to accompany a group interested to explore more during free leisure tome.Provide more detail info about the logistics of site visits. Niagara falls..suggest more water proof gear clothing and shoe types etc. Terrain to expect when visiting certain sites and possible alternatives.climbing and how difficult-easy or more strenuous or advanced climbing activity. Overall, small groups so much better than filling up bus. Thank you for giving single travelers their own bus space. Would love to watch more travel videos on longer driving distances.Show more

  I was not happy with most of the tour I was on and I blame most of it on Trafalgar, but the tour Travel Director in my opinion was not the most straight forward person and I was not the only person unhappy with her performance. Trafalgar pick things to do that were pretty stupid to do with the crowd that was on board. I believe that 47 out of 49 were seniors, yet they had us go to a hockey rink for a tour which put us late for our schedule time for our schedule time for our boat ride at Niagara Falls which then put us at the back of the a long line. Then the travel director has us go to Niagara on the lake and gave us 30 minutes which was not on the schedule, but a few people wanted to go. This put us back at the hotel at 8:30 at night without having dinner. These are seniors and the sechedule she gave us showed us getting back around 5:00 and this was just the first day. I know this won’t make any difference with you, but this was the worst vacation I have ever had and this after waiting 3 years while you had my money. I ended up spending roughly $7000 dollars on this trip and wasn’t worth have that.Show more

  The guide was not very organised and the itinerary wasn’t well planned. I will not be using Trafalgar again.

  Well planned tour, comfortable coach, energetic tour director, good hotels, expert coach driver. Safety arrangement at Hilton Quebec were poor and as result mine & fellow tour lady's hand bags were stolen from hotel's breakfast buffet. We lost our valuables, credit cards, identification documents. Apart from that all was great. There were unexpected surprises for us too which were bonus.Show more

  Thanks for taking the time to share your review of the Eastern Canada guided holiday along with the great photos.

We would advise that you contact your travel insurance to inquire to see if they are able to assist concerning this.

Despite this, we are pleased to read that your trip was otherwise great, and we hope that we will have the opportunity to restore your full faith in our guided holidays in the future.

  The tour was ok in so far as you will only get to see a little of each city in the time allotted. The hotels were all excellent except for the Hilton in Quebec City which was not very clean. We requested a different room which we got but it wasn’t any better. The bus was clean and comfortable although with the Air Con, it was quite cold at times and several others on the tour mentioned this. In general the food was good and the tour guides for each location were knowledgeable.Show more

  The cost for the tour is very reasonable with no hidden fees, and excellent without being expensive. The hotels are 4 star providing excellent breakfast. Ron, our tour director/guide, is knowledgeable and personable. There were local guides in the morning at Quebec and Montreal. Rob, the bus driver, is an excellent and safe driver. For longer bus rides, rest stops were taken approximately every 2 to 3 hours. There is a toilet in the rear of the bus.Show more
