informative, well selected overview of Torornto,_br/_ knowledgeable guides

Review by: Antje G	October 2011
gets you all around the city, most tourguides give good explanations, frequent busses approx. every 20 min_br/_ critical: sometimes they miss a stop so that waiting-time for up to 1 hour or even more is possible_br/_ voucher gives wrong schedule (voucher: 1 bus every 1 hour, real schedule except for missed stop: approx. every 20 min)

Loved it! Very informative and really entertaining tour guides!

Review by: JOEL M	July 2011
Very disorganized. We were told the wrong place to go to start the tour. Much of the information we were told was inaccurate. We were not told that this tour included a cruise on the harbor. If I had have known that, I would not have purchased a separate harbor cruise. Never again.

Tristan was a great tour guide. I like his descriptions of Yonge street as a dividing line between older and newer Toronto. He personalized many moments of the tour as well. Because of his narration, we captured many great photos of Toronto. It was great to literally hop on and hop off in so many places over the course of our whole stay. Very worthwhile!

Good value ticket that we used to travel around the main sites (sights) in Toronto. We didn't need to purchase or use any other form of transport during our 4 day visit (the ticket lasts 72 hours).

Review by: LOUISE P	June 2011
excellent - really easy way to see all the sights. great to be able to get on and off at all the attractions. really cost effective. Didn't realise it was valid for visit and not just one day - which was a bonus.

Ejoyed Toronto and was surprised at what it had to offer

Review by: Ludwig M	October 2010
Was a bit hard to find the starting point. The pick up times at the places were in too long intervalls so it was difficult to see more than 3 sights per day. Other cities offer better service. However I managed well as I stayed 4 nights.

Review by: HELENE A	October 2010
not worth the price... you could feel there was no passion in the guide's speech while explaining the tour and no customer interest whatsoever.... maybe use another city tour bus line or even by bus/ street car could not have been worse!

Review by: Carl M	October 2010
Unprofessional tours guide which seem to be a theme with this operator. Other tours bus ran more regularly and continued into the evening. These stopped before 5pm although it was still light. Disappointing.

Review by: HELOISA S F	October 2010
The tour was good, the guide explained the main places from Toronto.

Review by: Geraldine L	September 2010
Very disappointing. Torrential rain on the day but still an open top bus which was old and in addition to the rain pouring down the stairwell it was leaking at different points downstairs. The buses for the other Hop on Hop off tours looked a bit more up to date. Guides were also a bit unprofessional - one of them told us more about herself that what we were passing.

Review by: Robert C	September 2010
Absolutely dreadful. Do not use this company. Activation address was incorrect, resulting in us spending an hour wandering about trying to find the bus stop. No reps on the streets. By the time we found where to get on the bus, it was too late to complete the tour. Much better to try the others which sell tickets on the street.

Review by: Stephen R	August 2010
The addition of the tour guide to the trolley was very informative and personable and the young ladies were a wealth of knowledge. We enjoyed the trip, although with limited time only did the BLUE line twice. We did find though that the last pick up from the ROM Day 1 and the Casa Loma Day 2 at 4.00pm did not give us as much time as we would have liked.

Highly recommended for an overview of the city.

Review by: Richard M	July 2010
Last trip ended way too early (3pm) that we had to take a taxi back to our starting location, extra cost for nothing!

Review by: Mark M, United Kingdom	June 2010
The overall experience was very worth while. The knowledge of the tour guides was excellent. A good trip for people of all ages.

again a very good value for money tour

Review by: Nancy C	May 2010
It was a very hot day and the air conditioning in the tour bus was not working so needless to say it made the trip uncomfortable. Everyone was complaining about the heat. Seems they could and should have provided us with a different tour bus.

Review by: Anonymous	April 2010
Good tour covering main sites in Toronto. Friendly tour guide. Tour times changed at some point in the route, slightly different from brochure re casa loma pickup time.

Review by: Susan G	April 2010
Great introduction to the city. Suggest you do the full 2 hour loop tour when you first arrive, then you can decide where you want to explore in more depth. A 3 day pass sounds a good idea, but in reality you are unlikely to get the maximum usage out of this because the bus only picks up from each stop every 2 hours. For us this meant a lot of hanging about between attractions. A timetable would have been useful at the time of booking, then we could have planned our itinerary better. We only received the timetable once we got on the bus. The bus stops do not have timetables at them either, the only information you receive is where the bus tour starts and at what time. This makes it difficult to join it en route, as you do not know what time it gets to the various stops, and if you miss it, there is a 2 hour wait for the next one. Be wary as well of the bus stops. In the off season the route is different, and the bus does not stop at all the marked stops.

The buses could do with a bit of updating, otherwise it was value for money. All of the tour guides were very entertaining

Review by: Jacqueline H	August 2009
The buses were not frequent enough. The tour guides didn't do much more than tell us what we were passing, no background information.

Review by: Jacqueline H	August 2009
This was not what we expected. I used this service in Washington, DC, and it worked much better. The buses in Toronto did not keep a good schedule and were too sparse. We ended up taking cabs to get around to the different sites. The stops were also poorly marked. The tour guide could have given more information about the sites we passed other than just pointing them out.

Review by: Alex B, United States of America	July 2009
Very nice tour. One day we took the north-south line. Next day we took the east-west.

Review by: Athan M, Greece	July 2009
The blue line or north-south loop the city sights is good, frequent and gives you an idea of the downtown. The green line or east-west loop of ethnic neighbourhoods is also good but very long and less frequent. Difficult to find the bus stops and occurs with coach, not open-top double-decker, and I didn't like that part. The guides are very informative and helpful in both loops.

Review by: Robert M	July 2009
The bus is very old. The ride is very rough. The guide could not be understood. The bus rattles so loud we could not hear each other.

Review by: Krishnan V, Australia	June 2009
Easy paced. Try both the loops North-South and East-West. East-West goes through Chinatown, Little India, Little Italy, etc. whilst the North-South takes you through the main spots of Toronto. Gorgeous city and the commentary was interesting and engaging.

Probably a better tour in the summer months. Although the guide was again very knowledgeable and funny.

Review by: SHONA D, United Kingdom	November 2008
The tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and witty. Great commentary and well worth going on this tour - especially if you only have sort time in Toronto as you'll see all the highlights

Review by: Christopher B, United Kingdom	November 2008
This is a good trip and a perfect introduction to the sights of Toronto. The guides are very good with plenty of anecdotes and are very helpful in suggesting when and where to get off and when the next bus will be along. We got the 3 day ticket which gives loads of time for doing the sights. Casa Loma is a good stop and the CN tower is a must. The Distillery district and waterfront are also good stopping off spots. I think the company do a great job and that their staff are all helpful and knowledgeable. If you have time try their Niagara Falls day trip - it's great!

We were only 2 person on the bus. It was difficult to see anything through the windows. The guide, a nice guy, but he was talking too much, so it was difficult to concentrate on the tour, and follow where we was going in town. He expected some conversation. I expected just to sit an listen, and look out the window.

Review by: Anonymous	October 2008
Were not able to get all the tour highlights, because the city event. The tour guide was wonderful!

Review by: Janice O, United Kingdom	September 2008
We did both the North South Loop and East West Loop Tours and found them both to be excellent, although the East West one was spoilt by it being a very cold and windy day and maybe not quite so interesting for our party as the North South one which was really great. The guide was very knowledgeable with a good sense of humour and we really enjoyed the places we 'hopped off' to see, in particular Casa Loma, The Bata Shoe Museum, The Museum and of course the CN Tower. This trip was really good value for money and I would certainly recommend it.

Review by: Susan K, Ireland	August 2008
Definitely worth doing but we felt that the buses were not running frequently enough, you could be left waiting at a bus stop for a long period of time over an hour as we were. However when we rang the helpline on the sign at bus stop they did inform us as to when the next bus would be along.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	August 2008
It was okay but I know it could have been better. I mean the tour guide could have been nicer. Some of them were rude. I couldn't even listen about the city very well. I saw some fascinating sights so I guess it ended pretty well. I definitely want to go back.

Review by: Dee Anna S, United States of America	August 2008
The first day we had a wonderful guide and driver. Could answer all our questions and had a great sense of humor. Second day was just as great!!

Review by: Kevin S, New Zealand	June 2008
An excellent tour of Toronto City, very informative and interesting. Would highly recommend this tour to visitors to this city. A bit difficult to find the stop by the Toronto bus station as the stop number was in the shop window, not on the post where you expect to see it.

Review by: Ravi N	June 2008
If you are visiting Toronto for the first time, this tour is worth the money. North-South and East-West tours show you almost each and every street of Toronto. Your ticket is valid for 3 days so you can do the overview the first day and hop-on-hop-off second and / or third day.

Review by: Kim H	June 2008
This tour was fun, the only problem was that the buses did not run frequently enough, and so had to wait an hour for the next tour bus if you decided to get off anywhere. The tour guide was very good but the buses were a little run down as well and need to be upgraded. Still, it was worth seeing the different sites in Toronto.
