I thought the Maple sugaring tour through Keolis was very well organized from start to finish.Explicit details about train schedules and pick up information was easy to follow. contact information was provided if needed in the event you had to cancel, missed out train etc.
the tour of the farm itself was very good – tour guide himself did a great job. Casual and informative.
I would highly recommend a tour to anyone thinking of booking one.
I myself plan on booking the Meadery tour and interested in others.

A breezy maple sap to maple syrup tour!(happily it wasn’t breezy out ahead of a snow event!). As a huge maple syrup fan, it was interesting to hear about and see the process.

Special thanks to Keolis massAdventures! One for helping with some photos I was trying take. And the other for doubling back, recrossing the somewhat tricky parking lot, to confirm make sure that I wasn’t going back on the bus(I had other plans in the area)
