City of Hamilton (multiple tours) A focus on masterful storytelling and a reasonable price. We've put special attention into respecting the ghost story. This dedication to traditional styles mixes well with the natural (and only interesting) odd history. It's been our specialty since 2003!

We've been to Alcatraz twice before and had wonderful experiences both times (both locations), Mothers day we did the Secret Society and it was AWESOME, we absolutely loved it, well put together, great communication, staff , guidance and fun with the games in the waiting area. Although we made it out with 0:38 seconds to spare lol, would be nice if all rooms were 60 minutes Sarah was a great "hostess" We'll be back again for sure to do more rooms :D

At BATL, the Backyard Axe Throwing League, we believe throwing a killer party should be fun, simple, and full of bullseyes. Whether it’s a stag, bachelorette, team-building, birthday, or fundraising event, it deserves to be memorable.

We did a wine tour this past weekend and our driver Rogi was absolutely amazing. He was a lot of fun and very informative. The wine tour was great and we definitely will be doing this again in the summertime. Thank you Redback Tours for a wonderful day. It was such a pleasure organizing this tour with Angela. She made the process so easy. Thanks for everything. ????

A wonderful family outing. Got discounted tickets from Costco which made it even better. Took a picnic lunch and bought everyone icecreams out there. The kids had a wonderful time... the highlight of the day being the monkeys sitting on the van. We drove our own vehicle through the reserve, going at our own pace, stopping to take pics and videos (got a great video of a giraffe crossing in front of our van) A must do !!

if you love military history especially aviation history this is the place to go! You will have the opportunity to sit in the cockpit of World War II Canadian combat aircraft .. and take a virtual reality experience that is amazing and by the way that costs no extra over the admission price. They have volunteers there that are a wealth of information ... many were actually pilots in World War II.

This is a great place to spend an hour or two, the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable and some were even sailors on the ship in the past (shoutout to Andy for the navigation lesson). The ship is huge and every time you turn around it seems like there is something new to explore.
