What a wonderful idea!! We loved hearing about some of the sites that we were passing and their history. They even talked about some of the animals and we did get to see an eagle. The tour guides were entertaining and the quiz questions fun. A great way to learn about our country! Can’t wait for the next Tripvia trip!

I had to travel from Vancouver to Kelowna to receive some specialized cancer treatment and my wife accompanied me. Kelowna Concierge picked us up at the airport and delivered us to the Hyatt Place. Next morning, the limo picked me up at the hotel to go to the Cancer Centre. In the afternoon, the limo picked up my wife at the hotel and together they picked me up at the Cancer Centre. Next day, they picked us up at the hotel to go to the airport. Each time, the drivers were courteous and professional. They were always on time. The limos were clean and the drivers practiced strict safety protocols. This is especially important to me during Covid-19 and right after my cancer treatment. I highly recommend Kelowna Concierge and will use them again during my next trip to Kelowna.

They dropped us off and picked us up from our Hotel. We went to 4 vineyards and stopped in the middle of it for lunch. This is exactly what we needed. Thank you so much Zach for being so informative and listening to our wants and dislikes before the tour.

What an amazing day. John our guide took two ladies and our 13 year old daughters through the cave. He was patient with the girls as they talked his ear off. He was amazing at helping us through the cave. I was paralyzed 10 years ago, and have some weakness in my hips, and he helped and guided me through the cave, not once making me feel inadequate. The cave push us through some fears and was challenging, but worth it. An amazing experience.

First and foremost where do I start. First our tour guide Robert was amazing and informative about Niagara Falls he was charismatic with himself and made sure everyone was safe and having a good time. I thank you for our tour sir. We got to see all the falls I don't know why people say you only see half of the horseshoe fall we seen the whole thing up close on maid of the most. I was very pleased how all the views were spectacular it was unbelievable experience I will definitely do this tour AGAIN!!!. Pricing was great as well for what you are getting there is another company that charges about 20$ more then this one and getting the same thing. I must remind you...you will get extremely wet from the cave of the winds and maid of the mist so bring sandals or slides but ready for an amazing experience.
