I bought 2 tickets for my parents on Friday, July 22nd. They both love history, and were absolutely enthralled with this experience! The guide was extremely knowledgable, very polite and well-mannered, and my parents found him comical! He was even dressed as though he was from the period in history these events took place. He gave my parents so much information that they couldn't even absorb it all! They were shown landmarks, monuments, and cemetaries that they didn't even know existed..even though they are from the Niagara area! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for such a superb experience! If you love history, you will be more than amazed with this tour!

Kevin was an informative tour guide. He took his time and made sure he showed us everything. He took our pictures and answered all questions. He even recommended a top wing spot!

The guide was well versed in relaying the historical information associated with the guided tour. However, the tour was a bit overpriced for what we experienced. Overall, we enjoyed the tour.

We had a great time with Kevin, he's very informative and friendly. We didn't have a great understanding of history prior to the tour and he encouraged questions to ensure we understood the background. We really enjoyed ourselves, appreciated how engaging Kevin was and highly recommend! Book directly through Motherland Connextions - if you're buying through Groupon or La Vacanza Travel, you aren't going direct.
