Full description

Experience a guided tour of the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and discover the mighty waterfalls with stunning views. Enjoy historical and behind-the-scenes commentary from your local and licensed tour guide.

 

Your day will start with complimentary pickup from central hotels and locations across Downtown Toronto and Mississauga and arrive in Niagara Falls around 10:00 AM to enjoy 4 hours in summer or 3 hours in winter of free time to explore the falls. Add attractions to your tour package to experience the best of Niagara Falls.

 

Take this tour in the summer and take the Hornblower Boat Cruise, the world-famous boat ride, formally called the Maid of the Mist. Get up close to the Niagara Gorge, American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and feel the mist of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls.

 

You can even enjoy this tour in the winter when the boat is not running. Add other famous experiences to your tour experience including the Skylon Tower, Journey Behind the Falls, or Niagara's Fury.

 

Explore Clifton Hill for solo and family fun with activities like the Niagara SkyWheel, Ripley's Believe it or Not, and an arcade. Pack a lunch to have a picnic by the waterfalls or order at a local restaurant.

 

Next, go on a scenic and narrated drive across the Niagara Parkway. Stop and take photos at iconic attractions along the way like the Niagara Whirlpool Rapids, the floral clock and the Niagara Power Station.

 

Next, enjoy a maple syrup tour and tasting and try Canadian-inspired treats like homemade fudge, poutine, maple beer, or Niagara’s famous ice wine.

 

Return to your original location in Toronto around 5 PM and enjoy a full evening in the city with time for dinner and time to plan an evening event for yourself.

The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, gave lots of information, not just at Niagara falls but on the way and on the way back, also a really good driver as well. The falls were spectacular and impressive, and I would recommend the boat ride it is a must do.

It was an awesome experience! The driver/guide Kaleb was so nice all the time and he provided useful information and precise indications. It was a great way to visit this incredible place. The only thing I would change is the duration of the stay in Niagara Falls: 4 hours are barely enough... one more hour would allow enjoying the Falls without rush. 5 stars anyway!

Wonderful excursion! Winston our tour guide gave lots of interesting and informative commentary from the moment we got on the bus in Toronto to the end of the trip. He was also very patient and calm in shepherding everyone around and offered people lots of options for activities in Niagara. We were expecting to have to sit on the bus for quite a while in Toronto as we were an early stop, but actually there was only one pickup in Toronto and one in a different location, so it seems they coordinate the pick ups with multiple tours - which we were very happy about. We loved all the stops and had plenty of time in Niagara for lunch, viewing and the boat tour. Overall definitely recommend this tour and would book again with the company.
