Review of the Krka and Trogir day trip from Split, with waterfalls, a river cruise, UNESCO streets, free time, costs, and practical tips.

“The tour was great because of our excellent tour guide. Mate is intelligent,knowledgeable, kind and well organized. Great time management and tour went smoothly.The time allocated to each site was perfect;we loved the freedom of choosing how much time to spend at Krka and Skradin. I would recommend ANY tour by Mate any day. Unfortunately, the same doesn't apply to the Tour company and check-in staff. We received wrong instructions on check in location on the app. On the day of the tour,there was nobody to tell us where to go-just a sign on the door with vague instructions. The signboard of the check in office across the street was…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 195 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $93

Review of Niagara Falls Canada walking tour with Niagara City Cruises, photo stops, local stories, poncho, pricing, tips, and practical advice.

“The boat ride portion was cool. Our guide did a lot of lecturing on safety, behaving, and things that "annoying tourists do". Mind you we were all grown adults in our 50s. We were also lectured about not shopping at the gift shops. The outside portion of "journey behind the falls" was cool, but the "behind" the falls portion was dumb. We stood in line for 20 minutes to make our way to a small opening with water flowing in front of the opening. It was underwhelming. My recommendation is to just buy your own tickets for the boat, buy tickets to jounery behind...but there is no need for a…”

Review of Kilimanjaro’s Materuni village tour, with a waterfall hike, Chagga lunch, coffee making, mountain views, and practical tips.

“We had an amazing time on our trip to Maturuni Village! Our guide was always ready to explain the things we saw along the way. The waterfall was incredibly beautiful and powerful. We could have spent hours just watching it and listening to the sound of the water. The path to the waterfall was full of lush vegetation, exactly what a tropical forest looks like. The hike was easy, and it was totally worth it. Our Swahili lunch was tasty and full of vegetables, and it was easy to digest! The coffee experience was the best we've ever had! We danced and sang with the plantation workers while we ground…”
