I have been on other tours but this Tours of Distinction trip was positively not up to my standards. This bus wasn't prepared for winter travel, no sand or ice melt not even a shovel to get us out of deep snow. We spent 1-1/2 hrs trying to get moving on seemingly bald tires spinning on the ice/snow. Add to this we took a different route so an 8 hr trip turned into 12 hrs. The tour director didn't give information regarding that change nor did he give any history along the way, no water offered just a movie . He didn't seem to have a "smart phone" nor a roster with travelers phone #'s or information. Our lunch at the Parliament was a disaster, some were given the wrong meals while others were not even listed for a meal. On another night the bus could not make the hill to the hotel so we were forced to walk on the slippery sidewalks, not easy for this 82 yr old. The local guide was very informative pointing our points of interest but the bus windows were so filthy we couldn't see anything. I would stay away from this company until they get their act together, hire better and charter a more reliable and comfortable bus service.

Thank you for your feedback. However, we would like to address several points in your review to provide clarity and perspective. First, Peter Pan is a highly reputable company that has been in business for many years. The bus you traveled on was brand new. While we understand your frustration, the trip took place during a significant snowstorm—the most severe the region had seen in years. Weather conditions are beyond our control, and some minor inconveniences were unavoidable. This part of Canada had not received this much snow in over a decade. Regarding the tour, a Tour Director’s primary role is to manage logistics and ensure smooth travel from point A to point B. Local expertise is provided by a guide, which you had on this trip and noted as very informative. There was no deviation in the route, and reports of a supposed four-hour detour are inaccurate. However, we did address the issue of the Tour Director’s phone connectivity in Canada to ensure better communication in the future. As for the lunch, there were disruptions caused by individuals who either changed their orders, took meals they hadn’t requested, or consumed alcohol without settling the bill. These unfortunate incidents were beyond our control and contributed to the dissatisfaction. Finally, we’d like to reiterate that we do not own the buses but work with Peter Pan, a trusted and reliable partner. Many other travelers have shared positive experiences, as shown in their reviews. We genuinely value constructive criticism however, we ask that reviews remain fair and fact-based - yours was not.

I would not recommend this winter trip for travelers with mobility issues. There are many stairs and uneven pavement especially in the lower city. Unfortunately there were snow storms which impacted our travel. Bus got stuck many times which caused me to be concerned with the safety of all. That said, the Hilton hotel was perfect. Our guides did a great job. Would have liked an extra free day.

Quebec City is beautiful, loved the ice hotel, our local guide and our accommodations were all wonderful. Great group of people to travel with. The group leader for this trip unfortunately was totally unprepared for the trip. He did not anticipate issues (of which there were many including weather, route changes, restaurant issues) nor did he handle the problems in a professional manner. T and A should have ensured the bus they were using and the guide were prepared for the weather we encountered both on the ride up and the ride home. (ie. shovel, sand, snow tires, working cell phone) Sorry to say that having had some wonderful trips with them, I am not sure I would want to travel with them again when there are other choices. Definitely a great destination!

Quebec city was wonderful, however the bus ride was not. The weather was not cooperative and the bus got stuck several times,first at our lunch stop and then in quebec city. We didn't arrive until 830 at night. The bus was not equipped with salt or sand and no shovel. The most annoying aspect was that the windows were never washed so we could not enjoy the sights on our tours with our local guide. They were finally cleaned the day we left and the bus was never cleaned of empty cups that were brought on the first day. Ted, our TOD guide was great through it all.

Quebec City is fantastic and loved Carnevale! However, the tour director was inept, unprepared, unhelpful and a poor representation of the company. The bus was unprepared also. We were stuck for hours, no sand on board, filthy windows we could not see through. Yes there was a snowstorm. Yes it was February. Yes it was forecast. Nonetheless, the lunch stop was not reconsidered. The driver had no idea how to get to Quebec City and only when a member of the group spoke up, did we all realize how off course we were. She used her phone for google maps…the tour director did not even have a workable phone. I helped people over snow banks, the guide stood by and watched. Fiasco after fiasco. The group was congenial and as strangers we all bonded over the ridiculous unpreparedness.

You are correct Bonnie. There was a massive snowstorm that hit the area. We can appreciate your feedback on the bus. We have addressed all concerns to Peter Pan Bus Lines. However, fail to see where our Tour Director was unprepared. No one had to walk over snowbanks and if they did, that was a decision they made on own. You called our office and wanted compensation for the weather was out of our control and we advised there would not be any. So, we are not surprised to see your 1-star review. Best of luck in your future travels!

Janet Serra was our tour director on our trip to Mackinac Island featuring Niagara Falls through Tours of Distinction. Janet did an exceptional job and everything went smoothly. I would definitely go on my next trip with Janet as our tour director. Thank you again Janet for all you did to make our trip fun and exciting!
