    Really neat experience to see wild birds up close & great gift shop with the proceeds going to the…read morecentre. This is a rescue, rehabilitate and release centre - with their main goal to return the birds and any other creatures they rescue to the wild. There are some that they do not release due to the extent of their injuries. We booked the tour online the day before (this was October so I think we got lucky) and got to see the animals up close with a guide. You can visit the centre anytime during business hours but I highly recommend booking a tour if you can do you can get more behind the scenes time. The tours run Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I believe. The tours are free but they suggest $5 min donation per person. The tour was about 1 hr 15 min but we spent another 1/2 hr in the centre, lots of great information and interactive displays for kids. The volunteers are knowledgeable and kind. A great stop; awesome people doing awesome things for wildlife.

    DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS. I'm in shock after my bad experience. Cost me a premium to be overcharged…read moreover $1000. We a bad experience with the owner. I have multiple complaints. I was over charged for hotel accommodations. We requested medical rate for out of province surgery. They didn't bother, it was an additional $500. We requested the ability to change flights, they didn't do this for about $30 plus tax per ticket. additional cost was approx. Owner tried to tell me it would have been an extra $1000 a ticket. I looked it up on West Jet site. She lied, it really was $30 plus tax. West jet would let me change my flight myself for $100 plus tax per person if I hadn't gone through them. Travel place charged me $225 to change the flight. Owner told me $500 for hotel isn't that much. I asked for compensation. Told me if I were in here position, i would not refund us either. My daughter is fighting for her health and safety, and we have to deal with not just imcompetancy but also huge amount of disrespect. Told me she could not hear me, then told me to stop yelling. I didn't yell. I raised my voice so she could hear. Still waiting for refund from Cuba hotel from 2 years ago due to covid. Feels like a big scam. Only used her due to not wanting to call hotels for medical rate. What a big mistake using travel place.

    These people are not useful! Yes they will take your money and they will book your flight, other…read morethan that you are on your own! YOU ARE BETTER OFF TO BOOK ON YOUR OWN! You get just as much information! They were really anxious to get the deposit and payment for our trip but are not very caring or look out for the customer! Elissa I think should get some training to maybe be a better agent! Are you not an advocate for the customer? Should you not try to counsel people if you think they are making a wrong choice! Any I will stick with TD Visa for any future travel plans!
