Nice short excursion - This was a last minute booking and it was just as expected. Our guide was full of all kinds of information, very detail and entertaining. It was the perfect amount of time and a good ride to show you around and familiarize yourself with the area. Definitely recommend.

Missed cruise stop - Our ship had to skip this port because of bad weather. I just wanted to say how I appreciate that our fees were refunded. It makes it less risky to book excursions with local tours if you know that you will be refunded if the port stop is cancelled for weather. I was so disappointed to miss it and hope to come and take the tour another time.

Quality tour operators - Sadly, our ship failed to make port, so we didn’t get to enjoy this trip. I will say, however, the tour operator kindly refunded our money, and we are grateful for their speedy response!

Nice visit - A nice inexpensive tour of the Charlottetown area. We had a great driver (Dean) with a sense of humour. Yappy people on the top deck made it hard to hear the commentary. But I would recommend this, especially for a ship excursion.

Very enjoyable and informative tour of the city and area - The double decker bus gave great views of the area. Our guide was very informative and lots of fun too. We learned a lot about the city and saw quite a bit of the entire area both downtown and outskirts of the city. The homes in the area were very nice and even saw the horse racing track too. He gave a lot of suggestions for places to eat and other sights to go back to if interested to do so. Lots of the history and historic buildings and churches to see as well.

A good way to see Charlottetown - The tour & driver of the bus was excellent. The bus itself was old and it kept jerking on route. This at times was uncomfortable. Maybe a newer bus for the tour.
