We recently did the Presqu'ile National Park & Old Mill Alpacas day trip. We had lots of fun…read moredespite the iffy weather. Our tour guide Charmaine is very organized & friendly. It was so nice that everything was laid out clearly. We knew how much time we had for each activity. Our first stop was to the national park. We were getting intermittent rain alternating with sunshine so it was pretty wet. Also the park is on marshlands so even more wet than normal land! lol. We got dropped off by one of the board walking trails. It's very scenic & beautiful despite the rain. The sun came out at times. So nice to get some fresh air & there were birds, frogs, fish all around. Our next stop was at the Presqu'ile lighthouse, beach & visitor center (all near each other). The beach is small & rocky but it was so nice to be near the water. After the lighthouse we got to wander around the small visitor center. It has two single washrooms, a small history room, & a small gift shop. Next was our lunch stop at the Big Apple. There are around 4 food trucks outside the main building. There's a petting zoo also. Inside the main building there are washrooms, a candy store, baked goods, souvenirs, a burger joint & a bar. I liked the big apple but it would be hard to get there without a car. I liked that we got to pay for our own lunch because that also meant we could get whatever we want. Sometimes the day trips include lunch & has a limited menu especially for people with food intolerances. After lunch we got to go to Old Mill Alpacas. Here we got to feed the alpacas, and walk the alpacas. The owner of the farm also did a quick talk about alpacas. It was very interesting! Because of the rain it was muddy of course so we got dirty but I didn't mind as I was prepared with my waterproof boots. Also short trips informed us of weather conditions in an email before the day trip. After the alpacas we had a 30 mins break for dinner at a highway enroute rest stop. Too bad these enroute places don't have better food options. Anyway short trips has no control over that. Our drop off was on time. Overall we really enjoyed our tour with short trips. We would go on another tour with them for sure. Since we don't drive or have a car this is a really nice way to see parts in Ontario we wouldn't normally be able to see.

"An Incredible Niagara Falls Tour... Just Don't Miss the Bus"…read more What a tour. Seriously, worth every dollar. From start to finish, this was an extremely professional and well-organized experience. The tour guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and kept everything moving smoothly throughout the day. One of the best parts is how convenient the pickup system is -- they have pickup locations near all the major hotels in Toronto, which makes the whole process incredibly easy for travelers. There are several add-on options for the tour, and I highly recommend three of them: 1. The boat ride into the falls 2. Journey Behind the Falls 3. The helicopter ride The helicopter ride especially is one of those "you only live once" experiences. If it's outside your budget, though, the boat ride and Behind the Falls are still more than enough to make for an amazing full day. One thing I'd personally skip is the tower stop. The views are fine, but honestly the tower in Toronto is much better. Now for the one major warning: the cancellation and rescheduling policy is brutal. Even if your flight is delayed or canceled and you provide proof, you are still out the full amount. No refund, no reschedule, no flexibility. We learned this the hard way after our flight got badly delayed. I contacted them hoping to move our booking to the next day and basically got told, "good luck and goodbye." That said... the story has a happy ending. We ended up sprinting through the airport, grabbing a taxi directly from the terminal to the pickup location, and arrived at 8:03 for an 8:00 AM pickup. I had been communicating with them during the chaos and they agreed to hold the bus for five minutes. We used three of those five minutes like it was the final scene of an action movie... but we made it. In the end, I absolutely recommend this tour. Just book carefully, maybe avoid scheduling it immediately after your arrival flight, or get travel insurance for peace of mind. If you plan ahead, you're going to have an incredible time with a professional, organized tour company at Niagara Falls.

John ensured everyone who purchased tickets to behind the falls and the steam boat tour had tickets. And he happily escorted our group to the front of the line. Everything went smooth and John along the way gave us facts about parks and buildings as well as a few fun history facts about Toronto. I highly recommend this tour. He was extremely patient and it's great for ppl of all ages.

During…read morea recent trip to Toronto I decided to include a trip to the world famous falls but wondered whether to rent a car and drive myself, navigate public transportation or make a reservation for a group tour. Tours 4 Fun offers a VIP package that provides passengers round trip transportation from their hotels, shuttles them around in a comfortable van that seats up to 15 (including the driver) and provides knowledgable and personable tour drivers/guides. I was fortunate to go on a day with cool but sunny weather, large but not too large crowds, a great group of fellow passengers and driver/tour guide Tim Harris. It was a fun, comfortable and ideal experience I would recommend to everyone. From the timely pick ups to the engaging commentary the trip was perfect from start to finish. Of course the falls were fabulous and the trip on the Hornblower is not to be missed. But Tim went out of his way to make sure everyone was having a good time and even offered ideas for additional ways to spend our time while we were in Toronto. We enjoyed driving around, riding the boat, walking a bit and ending the excursion with a wine tasting at Wine Country Vintners in the incredibly picturesque community of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Wine Country Vintners offers samples of flights of wines that can also be purchased at the shop. I tried come Canadian wines that were fun to learn about and terrific to taste. I will never forget how much fun I had and how much I got to see and learn about this area thanks to Tim and VIP Ontario Tours.

My wife and I signed up for their Niagara Falls tour fully expecting a luxury touring bus as we have enjoyed everywhere else we have traveled in the world. We quickly learned, in disbelief, that VIP Ontario Tours does not adhere to their slogan. Instead of a luxury touring bus, they sent a rickety, retrofitted old school bus with poor shocks, crackly sound system, no heat, overhead lights for reading, WiFi and, especially, even a washroom! This, no less, a bus filled with children and seniors. Their response? "(we) do not guarantee a bus with a washroom or WIFI". Every other tour bus at the Falls was a luxury vehicle except ours.

Our tour director, Eliane, was knowledgeable and entertaining. Roxanne, our driver, was amazing as she navigated Manhattan traffic, taking the bus through spots that most would avoid even in a compact car. The bus itself was clean, although the seats were less than comfortable for such a long drive, even with frequent rest stops. The hotel was lovely, and breakfasts were very good. We likely will not do another bus tour, preferring to set our own schedule, but this was an excellent way to see New York for the first time.

You can check the full schedule online, which makes it easy to plan around stops, and they even offer discounted attraction tickets when you book with them, super handy. The tour guides were friendly and helpful, and it made navigating the city feel totally doable, even with a kid in tow. That said, it was hot on the bus. When the top deck fills up and you're stuck inside without AC, it gets pretty stuffy fast. Also, the mic system didn't work on three of the buses we hopped on, so we had to use the little plug-in headphones (which, bless, kind of worked). All in all, I'd definitely recommend doing this early in your trip, it's a great way to figure out where you actually want to spend time. Think of it as a mobile preview of the city!
