I've rented twice from Exclusive sports now from groups of 8+ to a group with just 3 sets - Exclusive Sport Rentals has always come through and was quick, knowledgeable and extremely friendly throughout the whole experience. All the gear was in great shape and they were able to answer many questions I had about the sport itself. Will definitely be renting from here again :)

The Promenade has been around since the 80"s but has really never fully caught on.
Over the years it has had interesting tenants but today it is saddled with Sears as the anchor. Sears is a total disaster and drags the entire place down.
Now, with new owners who are committed to find a formula that will work, there is hope for the future. My suggestion is to boot Sears and attract Simons or a small Saks. They will both draw.
Hopefully in the next few years the mall will be improved.

It is so nice to have a professional theatre venue north of the city WITH PARKING! It's so much easier to navigate this area than downtown Toronto. And it's nice to have big acts come here, yet the atmosphere is cosy and intimate. Beautifully luxurious inside.

a lovely service. a bit cold in the room. I was not crazy about the setup of the facial beds...head-to-head, as opposed to side-by-side. the point of being together in the same room was to spend time with each other and enjoy the service. we couldn't see one another in the setup of the beds. so kind of pointless in that regard. but the service was good.

This is a good mall for inexpensive lady's apparel, shoes, and children's apparel. Unfortunately the selection of men's stuff and non-apparel items has become rather weak. Outdoorsy types might enjoy the Bass Pro shop. Probably not up to the level of the Mills format malls in the States. What is interesting is that there are two sets of outbuildings which are somewhat more localized in format - one set has stores selling furniture and home improvement remodeling, the other is a mixed bag but has some locally owned ethnic restaurants if you don't want food court food.

Old Observatory but well maintained. Nice volunteer staff explain in detail about the Observatory history. Guide you well to sky watching and create intrest in astronomy. Very educative and intersting place to visit. Lot of staff watching with telescopes and allow to see their planet...MoreThanks so much for your kind words. We hope you'll be back to visit us again this year. Our 2016 schedule begins on May 14 and we're hoping for a summer of clear skies!
8. Reptilia Zoo and Education Centre
Overall Ratings
4 based on 222 reviews
Reptilia is a state of the art 25,000 square foot facility complete with large exhibits showcasing hundreds of different reptiles and amphibians, from giant pythons to massive crocodiles and king cobras. Watch our Cast at work in the nursery, our food preparation area and the venomous workshop! Each day there are a variety of opportunities to interact with our animals and learn from our exceptional Cast Members during our shows, tours and animal feedings! With four reptile feedings every day, free live theatre shows or zoo keeper tours and a chance to interact with the reptiles and the Zoo Cast, Reptilia is a destination worth visiting. Reptilia's Zoo is the first of its kind and it adds another destination to Vaughan's already growing list of attractions.

I jokingly told my son that in spite of the name “This is not a center that educates reptiles”, he rolled his eyes and replied, “Oh really, what was your first clue?” This was our first visit here and while the experience at Reptilia was alright, it was also our last visit here. When I was young I had newts, geckos and African frogs so I was a little curious and a bit interested in checking this place out. Although they do have a very knowledgeable staff and a variety of reptiles on display, personally I wouldn’t call it a zoo and I feel the admission price is a bit steep. At the end of the exhibit there is a cool photo opportunity with a couple of the residents and a live theatre area. Like all attractions you exit the exhibit area into a gift shop souvenir store. While they do not sell reptiles, you can buy books, tanks, food etc. and -shirt or other novelties to remember your visit. If you are into reptiles than you will defiantly enjoy this place otherwise you will most likely find it mildly interesting at best.

I always find the staff here to be both friendly and helpful. This branch has a great variety of resource material and like all Libraries what they don’t have you can request from another branch and have it sent over for pick-up. The library is clean, quite and well maintained, but the difference maker here is the courteous staff who are always welcoming and glad to assist you.
