Needs Work

VERY personable driver/guide. For a young man he communicated well and was very knowledgeable. However, I booked the night cruise, but was contacted by the company the day before, that it was no longer available. They were able to get us on an earlier cruise, but it wasn't the experience I wanted when booking. Secondly, the total time of the tour was promoted as approximately 2-1/2 hours. It was actually 4 hours. Luckily, I had no other plans arranged.

The Toronto night tour...

The Toronto night tour was an amazing experience. Our tour guide Cezar was wonderful. He picked my friend and I up at our meeting spot and he was a wonderful from start to finish. He was very knowledgeable about Toronto history and I loved visiting the distillery district. My friend was struggling with her hip and had trouble walking however Cezar was very understanding and accommodating. The tour guide on our boat tour was amazing as well. We went on our tour Aug. 27th.

Tamika_C, Aug 2025
I really enjoy the activity!! I was a little disappointed that the company didn’t offer pickup and drop in the airport area, but it was worth the hassle to get there. Very informative and our guide was very helpful

Excellent combined tour

Amanda_T, Aug 2025

Amazing

James_H, Aug 2025
A fantastic cruise with stunning views of the Toronto skyline. The tour of the distillery district was also fascinating.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re so glad you enjoyed the cruise and the trademark Toronto views! It’s great to hear you also found the Distillery District tour so interesting, it's such a unique part of the city’s history and charm. Thanks for sharing your experience with us, you're welcome back anytime! ⛵

Disrespected our country!!

Breanna_B, Aug 2025
Ansar was our tour guide for the evening. He was awesome at showing sites of interest and reflecting on the history of Toronto. My daughter and I enjoyed that very much. BUT, the part we did not enjoy at all was Ansar's disrespect and constant negative opinion of our country of citizenship and origin. We tolerated his opinions and comments for about 1.5 hours of the tour, then could not take it any longer and voiced our disgruntlement of his constant beratement of our country!! We booked this tour to see the sites of Toronto, learn the history, enjoy the beautiful city and learn about Canada. Never once did we give OUR opinion of Canada!! We were extremely disappointed to be so disrespected because of Ansar's personal opinion, PLUS, giving this negativity of our country to the other Italian gentleman on the tour. Ansar even went so far to advise us to vote for "a brainless career politician and to vote more wisely the next election!" How rude is that!! I would recommend this tour and ferry experience to visitors, but request that Ansar is NOT your guide!!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. The welcoming environment we aim to create on every tour is definitely not reflected in your thoughts. While we're glad you enjoyed the city sights and the historical insights, it’s incredibly disappointing to hear that the commentary became political and opinionated. Political and personal biases should never be part of any of our guest’s tour experience. We sincerely appreciate you bringing this to our attention, we will be training your guide about our guiding practices and standards. Thank you again for joining us, we sincerely regret that your tour got derailed and we hope to make it up to you in the future.

Good experience

dwayneshuman, Jul 2025
It was a really good experience for someone looking for a short but informative tour of the city of Toronto.

The visit is truly...

Nuno_P, Jul 2025
The visit is truly fascinating and magical. It includes a sightseeing tour of the city and a stop at the iconic distillery district—which, in our case, featured live music. Shopping enthusiasts will also find plenty to enjoy there. The highlight of the trip, however, is the boat cruise: it offers a stunning and unique perspective of the Toronto Islands and the city's magnificent skyline.

Misleading description

Kelli_G, Jul 2025
Worst Viator experience. Very misleading info given in description. Says tour takes 2.5 hrs, it was actually over 4. Says you will be dropped off at distillery district where you can shop or eat. They drop you off AFTER 10:00 pm so everything is closed. Ridiculous. Such a huge waste of time when we had limited time in Toronto. Also said Cherry Beach would be a stop. It wasn’t. The place they dropped us for food was Beavertails and who wants a beavertail for dinner? We were all very disappointed as were the other people on the tour that we didn’t know.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

We're sorry to hear about your experience. It seems like there was some trouble with your tour plan or destinations. We’d appreciate the opportunity to look into this further. Please email us at info@seesight-tours.com with your booking details—we’d love to make it right.

Fun!🤩

Victoria_M, Jul 2025
Fun and educational. Clean van. Boat ride on water with beautiful views. Nice Way to talk to. Helpful. Great picture taking opportunities. Great feel for the city

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Great views of Toronto,...

Andree_L, Jun 2025
Great views of Toronto, really fun walk through distillery district, unfortunately it was so late past 9pm that almost nothing was open. Try the ice cream shop it’s great! .

Tour of Toronto

Trevor_M, May 2025
We had a fantastic guide with depth of knowledge of Toronto and a perfect day to go on tge cruise around the harbour to plenty of photo opportunities.

planeshopper, May 2025
The tour guide was very informative . Shame it couldn’t be a night tour as mine was rescheduled . Ideally with the start time at 1830 would be more to see Toronto by night but nevertheless , I liked the tour.

It's fun and excellent...

Michael_B, May 2025
It's fun and excellent guide too. The tour was easy, was as described from the website, and the locations where as expected.

Toronto by night!!!

MariaArzel_L, Sep 2024
Ansar was great, he is always willing to take good photos too. Very patient, makes sure that we are comfortable and safe… He is very witty with a good sense of humor… I highly recommend this trip!!!

Once everyone was picked...

Valerie_F, Sep 2024
Once everyone was picked up, our group split between harbor tour (great sunset and amazing views!) and the CF tower. The tour of Toronto really began when we got back together. Our tour guide was great with lots of interesting info and some fun places to stop for pics. Really got our moneys worth.

Excellent

NiallC, Sep 2024
Perfect tour, got to see all I wanted and the tour guide was excellent he was a breath of fresh. Thank you

Awesome Tour

Kym_A, Sep 2024
We loved the Harbour boat cruise! Seeing the city lit up at night was beautiful. Our tour guide was amazing and knowledgeable. He really went above and beyond and told us a lot about Toronto’s rich history!

Awesome Toronto experience

Cornelius_H, Sep 2024
Great tour with an awesome guide. Toronto by land and water was the perfect combination. Our guide was an absolute pleasure. Her sense of humor and city knowledge is unmatched.

Enjoyable tour with stunning views and excellent historical facts

Kate_F, Aug 2024
The tour guide TJ (apologies if I’ve got your name wrong!) was excellent, friendly and engaging and provided us with thorough instructions on what would happen during the tour. He was enthusiastic and incredibly informative when we asked questions. Covered lots of areas of interest, Distillery District, City Hall and even recommended Beavers Tails which were delicious! Highly recommend

Not just a Harbour tour

Carolyn_G, Aug 2024
This tour delivered so much more than I expected. Prior to the cruise we had about 40 minutes of narrative and scenic driving. Then the harbor tour for 50 minutes. Then another hour of scenic driving and narrative with a few stops. Ansar was an amazing guide. He was knowledgeable and personable, Highly recommend

Cruising around downtown

Richard_M, Aug 2024
I arrived a late to the city - traffic was terrible! Ansar, our local guide texted me a good hour before the tour to inform me he would be picking us up. I think he waited about ten or fifteen minutes for us - big thank you to him. He showed us a few sights on the way to the harbour. The guide on the cruise itself wad good and humorous. Great opportunities for scenic photos of the city skyline and relaxation on the water. The cruise lasted about 90 minutes. Afterwards, Ansar drove us around the distillery and City Hall telling us a bit of the city’s history. Very informative and very passionate.

Personal showing around the city

Alex_I, Jul 2024
Ainslie was a great guide! She knew so many fun and unique facts along the tour. Was a personal experience with the guide. The boat ride around islands was filled with views of the wildlife and facts about the city. The boat guide had some fun jokes!

Toronto Visit

Christopher_K, Jul 2024
Harbour cruise was nice. I wish we would have visited the Distillery District earlier when businesses were open.

What a disaster

Greg_V, Jul 2024
What a disaster. I was told to be at the pick up point at 7pm. The van didn’t arrive until 7:55pm. I messaged the tour provider, he kept yelling me the Van would arrive “momentarily”, to be patient and that the delay was due to heavy traffic. The other people on the tour said the provider hadn’t bothered to contact them about the delay even though he had their details too. The Harbor cruise was ok, but this wasn’t run by the main tour company, Tour Shepherd. Four people left the tour and when we got to one of the tour highlights, the taste of Vietnam festival, we were so late that the the stalls were all shutting down and they were turning off all the lights. The guide, Nissan, tried to make the best of a bad situation, but this was the worst tour I’ve been on. It was so bad I’m requesting a refund

Great Night Tour

Debbie_E, Jul 2024
Daniel was an excellent, personable and energetic guide. He provided lots of information about downtown Toronto. It was nice to be on the water at sunset during the harbor cruise. There were numerous photo opportunities throughout the tour.

Epic GTA exploring!

Priscilla_G, Jul 2024
We had such a great experience very informative awesome views and good vibes. Ian was such a great tour guide made sure everyone had a good time,

Great & informational.

Jaime_M, Jul 2024
Ehsan was great!!! He was very helpful and very educational & informative. He went out his way to inform us abt the history of the city as well as insights for future visits to the city.

Would do it again

Jenill_G, Jun 2024
The distillery section and underground city was awesome and our guide walked us around each. Our guide had a vast knowledge of the history.

Toronto sparkles at twilight

Elaine_D, Jun 2024
We really enjoyed our tour. Ihsan (our tour guide) was very kind, considerate and knowledgable. He gave us interesting insights into different sections of Toronto, including the Old Town Hall, the underground path, Chinatown and the Distillery District. He was someone who clearly knew the city and appreciated Canadian culture. The harbor cruise really gave some great vantage points of the city's skyline during sunset. I'd highly recommend this tour, and having Ihsan as our guide made it truly special!
