I booked this tour for 10/12/24-10/14/24. This year the color hasn’t changed fast enough so maybe a week later could have been a better time. Coach was big, clean, no smell, should have provided wifi. Driver was polite and skillful. Tour guide Renee was super sweet. We were a group of 3 and always assigned seats near each other. Make sure you get a Canadian phone number to contact tour guide. We didn’t and almost got lost. 4 attractions were optional. The gondola is a must if you want to get to the top of the mountain in time. Meal plan was so so, mostly quick Chinese buffets. But nowhere else to eat. Overall, a good and affordable short trip for the family!

Great sights to see. The tour guide, Kevin, was wonderful. He made sure everyone had a fantastic time. A nice overview of the major cities. Too bad the church in Montreal, Norte Dame, was closed by the time we got there.
