Amazing experience!!
Amazing experience!!!
I gave the Ottawa/Gatineau 45 minutes flight as a birthday gift to my fiance who is obsessed with planes and does a lot of simulator.
Our pilot was so nice! He tested his knowledge and let him fly the plane for a bit.
The sights were beautiful and it was really cool. We felt super safe.
Thank you!

Great Tornto sunset flight
Bought a sunset flight on FlyGTA through Breakaway. Great flight, friendly staff and pilot, easy to book. Previously bought a St. Lawrence Market tour through Breakaway and an equally excellent experience.

This was a quick and easy way to find a once in a life time experience that was unique for my boyfriend. He is excited to book the date!
The workers were quick to help me out when I made a mistake and fixed it for me immediately.
Thanks again for all your help. I’d definitely recommend this site.

We are sorry to hear the tour did not go as anticipated. The St Lawrence Market tour is a popular tour that has always been well received. This is not the norm for behaviour we expect with our tours. Please feel free to send us details to https://breakawayexperiences.com/contactus and we can look into this.

Bought as a gift, and the recipient said she was delighted. The gift certificate denominations gave me enough choice, so the recipient could choose her own adventure. The purchase was quick and easy, and a fun alternative to more typical gifts.
