Hi
We went for 10 days in September last year. It was really really hot and apparently their summer had been delayed so that was a nice surprise.
We booked though Canadian Affair online. We booked flights and hotel online and then called them to change the room type as we wanted a Fallsview room in Niagara when we got ther for a few days. Unfortunately the Niagara Hotel than apparently 2 weeks later was full so we ended up booking the Niagara Hotel seperately but the Toronto one was fine.

We had booked to go in October 2006 with Canadian Affair and found them to be the best value. Unfortunately we had to cancel due to financial emergency (pesky children :nonono: ). However two of my mates at work have used them and been very pleased both with the price and the service.

Hi Malc,,
Friends of mine have just booked with Thomas Cook and found them really great on price. Maybe worth a phone call.
Best wishes

We did a week in Toronto/Niagara in October 06. Flew with Zoom and got some good fares. Holiday Inn in Toronto was ok but I coudn't give an unreserved recommendation. Rented a car and drove to Niagara. Stayed at the Lion's Head B&B (no. 1 on Tripadvisor) it was fantastic and very reasonably priced - gourmet breakfast each morning. We had an excellent meal at Peller Estates (vineyard) at Niagara-on-the-Lake, they also had accommodation which looked really nice but don't know the cost.

We went with Canadian Affair for our honeymoon last April. We called them with a strict budget (£1000) for 5 nigths Toronto and a 1 night Niagara in the Sheraton Fall view (Falls view room) including all transfers. Bearing in mind we flew out Easter Monday I think we got a good deal. It was lovely, although I felt 5 nights in Toronto was enough and would ahve liked to spend another night at Niagara.

We are just back today from British Columbia (boo hoo) and we booked with Neilson, a ski specialist. Our flights were with Zoom, and they were fine (nothing to rave about but fairly good value) They fly from Manchester, then pick up at Glasgow and go to Vancouver - reverse on the way back. They also do Toronto & some other places.
I would have booked direct with Zoom, and then direct with a hotel in the resort, but they didn't have any PE seats available on the Zoom website, I even tried the call centre. Neilson had PE seats available so we booked a package with them.
We really liked Canada, and are thinking of booking for same week next year.
