We contacted the Ministry of Transportation due to the lack of training we got for our child. I would not stay as far away from this place as possible. The hassles and lack of professionalism does not surprise me. I was given many issues over the reasons why my childs in-car lessons were cancelled by them. I was given additude over re-booking them. i was also told I would have to pay more money upfront to have his lessons scheduled again. read more

This may be the cheapest driving school in Niagara but be warned; Your in car lessons will be repeatedly cancelled, mine were until eight months had passed, then I was told to pay another hundred dollars to finish. I never missed or cancelled an appointment but somehow owe them more money to finish. I consider this to be a scam and won't pay it. I willove be writing a letter of complaint to the MTO. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else for your driver training elsewhere. It will be faster, less expensive and you'll probably get a better education. read more

It might be the cheapest driving school in St. Catharine's but do not trust this Driving school for the following reason -poor communication- the driver does not pick up his phone or call to say he has arrived -minimal staff- they only have one driver so if you don't like him well your screwed.(he is rude) -you will not finish the driving school in a timely fashion because again they only have one instructor Overall the in-class experience is good, but when you hit the road it will be a long time until you do and finding an appointment it is tough. The driver they have there is poor at communicating as a student waiting at a location I waited over 20 minutes and tried to call him repeatedly he said his phone was on vibrate and I was responsible for a rescheduling fee of 80$. When I told the office they said there is nothing they could do and claimed that I missed the appointment. DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AND GO FOR THE CHEAPEST DRIVING SCHOOL......go with apex or young drivers you will pay more but all my other friends were done faster and had better instructors! read more

It was mediocre to be honest. The in-class lessons were good, but the on-road lessons were lousy. The lessons were too far apart and regularly changed or cancelled. The instructor just wasn't good, he did a poor job teaching driving techniques and after all 10 lessons were finished I still didn't have enough skill to even park the car properly. There are much better driving academies in the area, go with them instead. read more

I had a terrible experience at Adventure Driving School. I took the course a year ago and I only ended up finishing it about 2 months ago. It's a sketchy looking place but the price was low so that's why I went there. The in-class part was okay. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. They made me wait 3 weeks before I could start booking in-car sessions. First off, they will only do 2 hour sessions so you get it done in 5 sessions except that there is ONE in-car instructor, and he would not do a lesson on weekends or after 4 pm on a weekday. So I had to miss school every time because there was no way I could do a 2 hour lesson before 4. Next, they make you wait 2 weeks in between each lesson which I don't understand but nevertheless, if it had worked out that way, it would have taken 5 weeks, including the driving school, 10 weeks. It did not go as planned. He kept cancelling. 4 times he cancelled and the next available date was 3 weeks away. I had already had my G1 for a year so I could take my test already, but I wanted to get all the training and practice done before I took it (cause I didn't want to fail obviously), and the date I could take the test kept getting pushed back and pushed back. I am not entirely sure what the guideline is but I believe if I had to cancel a lesson I would have to give 24 or 48 hours notice. He would give like 3 hours notice, saying that he wasn't coming in today so I would have to call his secretary and reschedule. This happened so many times! There was one time where the secretary had said that he worked on Boxing Day and made me an appointment that day. I had asked if that was okay, since it was a holiday. And she said oh yes he always works on that day. What happened? He cancelled and said he wasn't going to work on that day. I don't even know if him and his secretary even talked because she clearly never knew when he was going to work. Except all he did was talk to someone (who I was assuming his secretary) on his phone the whole time that I was in the car with him so maybe they did. Anyway, it took me 10 months from the time I took the in-class course to the time I finished the in-car. And it was only FIVE sessions... My instructor was not kind, patient, or cooperative. He overreacted, lectured and was unreliable. I'm not sure what the rules are but on the last lesson he made me take a mock test and he said that if I failed the test I would have to pay and redo the in-car lessons. I passed, thank goodness but if I had failed I don't know what I would have done. I already paid for the course, I already took all my hours in-car, I don't think they can make me do it all over again. My friends went to different driving schools and they said that they did the mock test but it was just to see how ready you are for the real test, they didn't have to take it again if they failed, and some of them did. So... I would highly recommend not going here. My sister is currently in Aapex driving school and she says she loves it and her instructor is very nice. She has done 3 1 hour sessions in 2 weeks already and they are great at working with her schedule. Don't do what I did because it was cheap, pay the extra money and go somewhere where you'll have a good experience and it isn't a nightmare, it will be totally worth it. read more
