One-hour Toronto Harbour cruise from Pier 6 with live English narration, skyline views (CN Tower, Rogers Centre), and a pass by Toronto Island.
“Very informative and fun. It’s an incredible view of the Toronto skyline and the tour guide was wonderful.”
A 1-hour horseback ride along Banff’s Bow River with calm horses, helmet guidance, and Cave and Basin sights for $78 per person.

Ride horseback through Banff National Park for an hour, see the Bow River and sulfur hot springs, or Spray River and Boat Falls.
“It was fabulous !! The horses and stable are beautiful . The guides and everyone who works there are wonderful .”
Private dome wine tasting at Konzelmann Estate Winery, with Lake Ontario views, included wine and charcuterie, about 1 hour.
“We had an amazing day at the Konzelmann Estate Winery with beautiful field and lake views from our private dome. The charcuterie and wine parings were on point and our Wine Consultant John impressed us with his wine expertise. We were introduced to a new love of Iced Wine and had to stop in the shop to purchase some fine wine on our way out. A truly incredible experience, one we wouldn't hesitate to book again.”
A 1-hour horseback ride in Banff featuring Bow Falls views and Spray River crossings near the Fairmont. Beginner friendly, calm horses, helmet included.
“This place is beautiful. The horses are well-trained and handled very professionally. The staff are friendly and kind, and they genuinely care about the horses’ comfort, which I think reflects great animal friendliness. However, the listing mentioned that parking is included, but when I asked where to redeem the parking ticket, they told me that they do not offer free parking. I’m not sure if this is a mistake on the platform or something else—I just hope the next person is aware of this.”

1-hour winter Segway tour through Edmonton’s River Valley, cruising the Trans Canada Trail, with photo stops and guided city facts.
“Very fun experience, although very chilly in the winter. Chance was a great guide. He showed us lots of interesting spots and was always concerned about safety. Doing the 90 min vs the 60 min trip allows you to ride the Segway’s much more. The later part is more riding and less talking. The Segway’s were fun and easy to learn. We enjoyed talking with Chance after the tour too!!”
