This tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Vinny, truly made the experience unforgettable. He shared personal stories about growing up in Niagara Falls and even showed us a photo of himself as a teenager that was published in a book, which was such a fun touch. We loved that transportation was included, and along the way, we learned a lot about the history of Niagara Falls. The tour included admission to the tunnels below Horseshoe Falls, a ride up the Skylon Tower where the views of the Falls were breathtaking, a stop at the Whirlpool rapids, and the Hornblower boat ride, which was definitely a highlight. Everything was well-organized and moved at a comfortable pace. I would highly recommend this small-group tour over a large group. It felt much more personal, and we had a great time from start to finish.

It was a fantastic tour! Everything went so smooth! The only thing I would change is maybe a little more time at the journey behind the falls. Great experience!
