    Interesting tour, hitting all the high points on the east coast if Canada. Will come back again to spend more time in the cities as the tour touches on everything but not enough time which is expected. Very comfortable hotels and transport. The train to Halifax was great, excellent service and well worth doing, would recommend adding this on to all the trips.

    This is a long overdue review and I don’t know why I didn’t take the time to write this before. This Ontario and French Canada tour with Susan was amazing. Everything was well organized and enough time were spent at each attraction. Totally have no complaints!

    This was an "8-day" tour starting in Toronto and ending in Montreal. As a New Zealand author of novels and short stories, I have travelled widely (about 23 countries). This is my fifth coach tour, the others being through Europe with Trafalgar and Expat Explore. In comparison, the hotels used by Cosmos were superior and all but one were located near shops, supermarkets and attractions. On the second day, the tour kicked off with a hiss and a roar as we travelled to Niagara Falls and for me, the highlight was being on a large boat at the bottom of the falls. Old Quebec City was another highlight together with its interesting history involving the French and English. Our tour leader, Nadine, did an excellent job giving the history and attending to our needs. The coach driver, Dave, was also very friendly and helpful. My wife and I took advantage of two optional excursions: A traditional sugar-shack Dinner, and Quebec countryside dinner and Montmorency Falls. I would recommend the latter. At the end of the seventh day, the tour ended. Brian Wilson

    This was a great trip and we loved all the cities we visited. James was brilliant and super organised. The overnight train to Halifax was a great experience and so glad we did it. However, we felt the journey took too long, but that was due to train delays. We felt that when we arrived in Halifax, 4 hours late and tired, Carol did not seem to be organised at all. She did not order enough taxis to get 11 people and 10 peoples cases to the hotel. Consequently she didn't realise that 3 ladies had been left behind and had to get their own taxi and was surprised when she was given a receipt for reimbursement for the taxi cost.

    Tour was as advertised with some good options. The guide ensured the group was on time and the driver was excellent. We appreciated the chance to use the Cosmos hotels both before and after the tour.
