Kat was our guide and she was great. Very happy with her service and knowledge of the town. She picked us up from our hotel then took us to the Canadian side. Drove us down east to see the whirlpool area. Did some shopping and eating. Then down to the old power plant. Gave us plenty of time to walk down to the tunnel. Then last took us to the skylon tower. She was very patient. Times herself well and always communicated how much time we would have. Had our tickets and vouchers ready. Helped us be efficient when crossing the border and then dropped us at the hotel. She was very sweet and would definitely recommend her.
