    Very easy to use, we hopped on to go to the Toronto Islands. Cheap transport, efficient and good overall experience.

    Definitely worth using.

    This is a great way to get from Toronto airport to downtown Toronto. It is cheap (CAD 12 one-way), the trains run frequently (every 15 minutes), they are quick (25 minutes) and they go right to Union Station. It is safe and comfortable although it can get busy. There is plenty of storage for luggage on board.

    We took the pirate taxi from Toronto to Centre Island. It cost CAD60 for the 4 of us. It was a nice little trip and the captain was really fun (we can’t recall his name but he was a slightly older gentleman with greying hair). He gave us lots of fun little facts and also took some nice pictures of the 4 of us (free of charge).

    I don’t tip for things like this as a matter of course but our Captain was so nice that we decided to give him a tip (which had to be in pounds because we had no dollars on us!) but he was really pleased with that anyway because he said his wife was off to the UK soon so he could give her the tip for spending money!

    We’d recommend taking the pirate ship out to the Islands and we took the ferry back to Toronto (which is free of charge)

    Went on a private sunset tour around the Islands a couple of weeks ago and had a wonderful experience. Sean was extremely friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The tour included both beautiful skyline views as well as some lesser-known hidden sites. Would highly recommend to anyone (he also offers traditional tours and water taxi service)! Sean is easily reached by phone.

    We used this ferry to get to Toronto Island Park. It is definitely the cheapest option to get over there, compared to the other single boats with gimmicks to get there.
    The positives is that is a good price to get a return ticket to and from Toronto Island, there is plenty of space on board (but if you are last one you may not get a seat), and the views of Toronto as you travel on the water are spectacular.
    The negatives are the waiting times for the ferry, if you miss one, it's a good 30minute wait for the next; and the main negative being the ferry terminal in the city feels like a cattle pen. Very harrowing when people start crowding and pushing to get onto the ferry, you'd think it would be better organised and managed. So be prepared for this in the main terminal. A queue system might create some order, or only selling tickets for a specific time.

    It is very difficult at Union Station to find track information for return trip. Signs are sparce and very small. Posting of track info for train is only minutes before train leaves and if you are not familiar with the station it is confusing and hard to find the specific track tou need. Really difficult for travellers. The train was fine. The customer care people at the Bramalea GO were very pleasant and helpful with getting on the train. Getting on was a very easy. Getting back was difficult and stressful.

    We had Hassan as our driver on the Niagara day trip tour. He was knowledgeable and helpful with myself and my mother, as well as the other guests. Individuals pick ups from hotels in the airport area, so didn’t have to find our own way to a random location for pickup and drop off. Hassan provided great recommendations for activities at Niagara Falls, and then took us sight seeing up along the river to Niagara on the Lake.
    It was a comfortable and safe van, the ride was pleasant and views were immaculate. I am so glad we were recommended to contact Hassan’s tour by the hotel we were staying at and would recommend to friends and family if they were staying in Toronto.

    Safety is a concern. Over 10% of the time I ride the subway, there is an announcement of an incident at a station. Why is there not a protective system in place to stop people from being able to fall or be pushed onto the tracks. I travel a lot, and have been to over 100 countries. When it comes to the GTA subway system, it should be much larger, safer, faster, and more reliable.

    I am most amazed by the subway systems of China. They are world first in class.

    My friend and I were picked up at Toronto International Airport. Our driver contacted us as soon as we landed, and was waiting for us at the designated spot. In spite of the crazy traffic, our driver got us to our hotel safely and in a timely manner, and was friendly and helpful throughout the drive. The same driver picked us up on our return trip! Great customer service and reasonable rates. I would book with them again!

    Driver was very courteous and knowledgeable. On time. The ride was over priced, and driver explained that it is due airport fees

    Take a picture of your odometer, our car was driven over 100 Kilometers after we left it at Vallet parking. Have a dash camera as well. There was coins for around 10$ missing from the car. The car was filled up prior to leaving it there and when we picked it up almost half of the gas was gone, as it was driven. Overall, poor experience, not recommended.
