Dear Kristine,
My husband Bob and I recently took a tour to New York City. Susan Bennett was our host. We just wanted to let you know that we had the BEST TRIP OF OUR LIVES. We were a small group and Susan made it seem like we were all friends and we have known each other for ever.
Both the Driver and Susan were very professional and a lot of fun to travel with. We drove through a very heavy downpour and we all felt safe. Susan had games on the bus and also ran movies which we chose to watch by a bus vote. My husband Bob and I were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary and Susan made us feel so special. We will book another trip in the future, and if Susan is our host we will be excited and extremely happy.

I would like to personally thank Maple Leaf Tours for a great few days on the Agawa Canyon tour. For me it was the first time travelling on my own. I was made very welcome on the bus. I felt safe and I know Richard and Gary watched out for me. 

I found the hotels were comfortable and welcoming. The stops for sight seeing where the best. All in all, I can not fault anything on this tour. I will certainly travel with you again. 

Worry-free traveling! We highly recommend Maple Leaf Tours. We just returned from a trip to Quebec and our only complaint would be that it wasn’t longer. ๐Ÿ™‚

We had complete confidence in our driver, Gord. And wow, he and our tour guide, Steve, got us out of a tricky situation in the narrow streets of Quebec when a car was parked illegally and we were unable to turn the corner. Steve McQueen has nothing on Gord!

Our tour guide, Steve, was really helpful and considerate. He made sure we were all comfortable, was available if needed but never in your face. We appreciated his friendliness, his organization and his good spirit throughout! Despite him being a Habs fan. ๐Ÿ™‚

It’s great to be able to travel to a strange place and not have to worry about getting around to see the sights. We’d definitely travel with Maple Leaf Tours again.

I recently took the trip to Quebec City. The agenda for the trip was excellent.
Richard did a great job as escort for the trip. It was really nice to have so many activities and meals included.
I hope you can offer a trip some place else with a similar itinerary.
I felt it was good value for the price of the trip.

Richard was a terrific tour director, did a difficult job extremely well. Driver Dave was excellent and fun. Good group we traveled with, lots of fun, and good at getting back to the bus on time. 

I don’t have a single fault to find with this experience. It was professional from start to finish. Everything was organized and executed with confidence and capability – as well as humour and personality. Well done to everyone involved, and thank you for a wonderful day!

We just got back from a day tour to the Aquarium and Medieval Times in Toronto. Joanne, our tour guide, and Larry, our bus driver, were wonderful. We drive to Toronto frequently but decided to take the bus instead. We had no stress driving down and back, trying to find a parking spot or standing in line for tickets. Joanne and Larry had everything under control. Joanne kept us up to date with everything that was going on. She passed out treats and information on upcoming tours. Larry tried to park as close as they would let him to the venues so we wouldn’t have to walk too far. My husband and I can’t say enough good things about Joann, Larry, the trip and how it was organized. We had a wonderful time. We have already booked our but trip to the Agawa Canyon.

Thank You Again!

On behalf of the Worthington Park Activities Committee, the residents of Worthington Park and their guests visiting our 48th annual Canada Day ceremonies, I would like to express our most sincere thanks to you for your thoughtful donation.
It is because of donors such as yourself that Worthington Park can hold such a great party on July 1st each year! For your information we had approximately 192 people registered at this year’s event. It was a great success with many positive comments received for those in attendance.

To Kristine Geary & Staff, 

My son Allen and I went to Toronto on Wednesday to see Come From Away. We both came home with wonderful memories of our trip and seeing the Musical we both received the assistance needed to do this trip. Allen uses a cane for mobility and I use a walker to be mobile. We appreciated the office giving us seats on the aisle making mobility easier and the assistance when required by me was always cheerful and quick, Peter and Steve were helpful on the bus and in the time in Toronto and our meal at the Mandarin on the way home. Do not stop travelling if you have mobility issues because Maple Leaf Tours can provide the service you need. 

Sincerely 

Hi There…I just wanted to let you know we had an awesome time in NYC….we have been several times but always stayed at friends…this was the first time we stayed in a hotel and it was PERFECT….the hotel itself was very nice and it was in the perfect location….I would definitely recommend and if we were to ever visit NYC again we would definitely stay at this same location. Thanks, Peg

Dear Kristine,

My name is Linda Y and my husband and I had the pleasure of travelling with your company on the Nashville trip November 18-23, 2018. My husband was not a fan of travelling on a bus but with my encouragement he went and had a VERY enjoyable and fun trip!! I would especially like to make special mention of the wonderful tour guide, Richard Holmes. He was knowledgeable, organized and always kept us busy doing whizwords, crosswords, quizzes etc. and he never made the trip boring! Our driver Larry was great too! He was an excellent and skilled driver and he always got the bus through the narrow streets in Nashville! Thank you for the wonderful trip to Nashville! I personally have been on a few of your bus trips and continue to recommend your tour company and look forward to you upcoming trips in the future!
Keep up the great work and thanks again!

Just a note to tell you the Nashville trip was excellent – exhausting but excellent!! We were blessed with an outstanding driver, Larry and a super tour guide, Richard. Both gentlemen were professional, knowledgeable and accommodating.
Larry had only been to Nashville one other time but knew the city as if he had lived there all his life. Richard was calm, displayed a quiet sense of humour and shared his knowledge of highlights on the trip to and from Nashville and in Nashville.
Kristine, these two gentlemen reflected most positively on Maple Leaf Tours. Thank you for a great experience.

Dear Kristine:  Thank you for the little note.  This is excellent customer relations.  Indeed, I should be thanking you for a very well organized and conducted tour to see Come From Away. The whole trip was very professionally run and well managed and driven.  The play, of course, was marvelous.  The Mandarin Restaurant was the right one in the right location and their food was perfect for our needs.  All ’round, a first class trip.
Thanks again.  Cheers

Kristine……just wanted to thank you for conducting the most excellent vacation aboard the Norwegian Dawn last week. Bill and I have many great memories to share and we couldn’t have done it alone. Thanks so much for your excellent organizational and people skills. 

Dear Kristine,

As one of many Canadian travelers who have enjoyed Maple Leaf Tours, I’d like to say a few words   I had taken the NYC Tour after a Theatre Tour to Toronto, then the Mamma Mia trip yesterday

In passing, I might add that although I was born here, I have lived in Spain for more than 50 years

Never having taken a Tour before, how surprised I was!    My delight in yesterday’s trip was in large part due to our Guide Richard (“the Great”!!)  He is the perfect man for the job – interesting, caring, helpful and lots of fun.  We were never bored on the bus with Richard either  handing out pens and paper or drawing for prizes, or explaining Toronto’s points of interest..  He took such good care of us!

He is indeed an unforgettable Guide. THANK YOU, Richard Holmes!

Being without my computer over here, I am sending this  via my sister Shirley’s laptop.

(As  Arnie would say “I’ll be back”)

Dear Kristine,

Harold and  I want to express to you how much we appreciate all the help we received for our trip. I know we could not have done this without your staff, you and your sweet daughter. We are totally grateful it went so smoothly. We are telling our friends how accommodating you were to help your company. Again our deepest appreciation. 

Fabulous weekend at the Carnival in Quebec!! We enjoyed every fun-filled minute. Steve S was knowledgeable and organized everything went smoothly. Gord the bus driver fun and always on time – nothing seemed too much for him. They are a great team and I look forward to doing a future trip with that duo. This was our first bus trip (since high school) and will be in touch again!

I won the trip to Nashville, Tennessee on the radio with Maple Leaf Tours. Everything went smoothly, the bus ride was long but the driver Artie was great, our tour guide Susan was very friendly, knowledgeable and always looking out for us and our needs. We had a great busload of friendly people, we got to do a lot of things during our time there. I would say an extra day to do whatever you want would be an asset as it was pretty rushed with everything we had scheduled to do. Overall a very memorable trip! Thank you Maple Leaf Tours!

Alight at Night at Upper Canada Village 5/5 “Betty is a perfect person for a tour guide. I have been in her company before. I was amazed at how the village was decorated. My friend Dave from Silver Lake Camp was also working the train Thursday evening and the horse ride was fantastic.”

Musical โ€œBat out of Hellโ€ 5/5!! Our driver Peter was an excellent driver which makes you relax and enjoy the trip. Richard was also very helpful in providing info about places to eat for lunch etc.

A wonderful trip, Steve was great.

We are so appreciative of having had the opportunity of this trip as winners. We had an amazing time! From just enjoying the couple time, to exploring the city, to enjoying the Blue Jays games and meeting some really fun people, it was wonderful from start to finish!!!!!!!!!!!! Richard and Steve were amazing guides, the bus driver was great and our fellow travellers made for a super group! We will definitely keep Maple Leaf Tours in mind for future trips and I have been raving about our trip and Maple Leaf Tours to friends!

My sister and I returned from the NYC Deluxe Tour last evening, full of praise for the superb organization that went into this Tour, Mind-boggling!

Our Guide, Richard Holmes, especially – attentive, patient, helpful with seemingly encyclopedic knowledge, and great fun. My sister Marilyn, visiting from Spain, is in her 80’s and I am 91. Though both active, we were so impressed with the way he ever so tactfully “tucked us under his wing” now and then, especially taking us into the Times Square throngs where I had visited in 1945 for New Year’s Eve after joining the CWAC.

Thank you so much for this superb weekend – every need looked after, fantastic location and hotel, meals (though TOO BIG!), Guides Annie from Brooklyn (++entertaining!) for Manhattan and the 9/11 Memorial, Alvin for Harlem with his insightful history, and the fascinating lady who guided us through the Guggenheim, to say nothing of the excellent seats for Anastasia and the Rockettes (took our collective breaths away!)

And our driver Peter, surely the best driver in your roster! Stable, focused, controlled even in the blizzard en route home, and nothing short of brilliant in NYC traffic! And fun – we all wanted to adopt him!!!

I would make a comment on Facebook or Twitter but I don’t use them, only Flickr for my pictures of the Tour.

We await your possible Western tours!

We just got back from the Muskokas with Driver Mark, and Tour Guide Richard. It was like all of your trips, well planned, and well executed. The Deerhurst is as good as you could get and the balance of the trip was as enjoyable as could be expected in Northern Ontario. Mark is a very good driver and Richard helped make the time go by with his timely comments. Thanks again until the next time!

My husband and I would like to express our appreciation of our Host Betty on our recent Agawa Canyon Tour. Betty was professional, pleasant and very well organized. She was ineed the perfect person for her position. We had never toured by bus before and enjoyed our experience.

We would also like to compliment the bus driver Vic. He was always in complete control of the situation under aggravating and/or dangerous driving conditions. We never felt vulnerable. Vic was also plesant to deal with.

It was a great day! The Daniel O’Donnell show was spectacular. Hope you will have a trip again when he is in our area next year.

Brian and I loved the Cap Cod Tour. We thought Andrew our Driver and Owen our tour guide did a super job.

We had a great time on the Toronto Zoo trip. Our tour guide and driver were awesome! Can’t wait for our next trip to Niagara Falls!

Thank you! We had a wonderful day!

It was an awesome day.  My Mom and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  There is nothing I would suggest for improvement. Susan was a great host and Ryan was an awesome driver.  We will for sure be back!
