We fully enjoyed our Niagara Falls tour with our guide Alora. I recommend using this tour company to assist you in seeing all the different parts of Niagara Falls: we chose to see the falls from above with the Skylon Tower, beside with the Journey Behind the Falls, and inside the falls with the Hornblower Cruise. Using this tour gave us the leisure and confidence of being with someone who knew it well. We didn't need to wait in lines to purchase tickets, and we received inside information on the best viewing spots.
Alora gave us information about the falls, the history, those who decided to travel over the falls, and more. My husband asked for a food recommendation, and he enjoyed her suggestion for poutine. Thanks

This was the first time bringing our children to Canada and while staying in Niagara, we wanted them to experience the most that the falls had to offer. The tour guide, Alisha, was excellent. She talked about interesting historical facts about the falls, different events from the past and present, and was generally informative about the location, good places to visit and eat at. I would highly recommend the tour. The kids had a lot of fun. Bring water if coming in hotter months! The kids were quite thirsty and hot but we all had fun. The boat to the falls was the most fun we all had. You will get wet so dress accordingly but it is certainly an experience you can't get anywhere else.

Our tour guide, Linda, was wonderful! Very informative and gave us helpful tips and tricks to get the best "seats" on the boat. The sights were amazing, hard to describe with words. The walk from the boat to the Journey Beyond the Falls wasn't bad at all and there were only a couple of sets of stairs. The gift shop at the Journey Beyond the Falls is much bigger and nicer than the first gift shop you walk through after you get off the boat. Overall, great experience, would definitely recommend seeing the Falls this way! And, Canada was beautiful, very clean, nice people, better views of the Falls, actually a nicer overall visit than the US side.

Our tour guide, Alisha, was fantastic and enrgetic! She gave us so much background and info that it made all that we were seeing even more wonderful. She was fun and knowledgeable. The behind the falls was just remarkable and you were right up front. There wasn't much time here, but it was wonderful to be able to see what others do not. Alisha also told us right where to stand for the best view, and splash, on the boat! It was perfect! We enjoyed her immensely and totally would recommend this tour for sure! I was worried that I wasn't going to get all of the things we wanted to do in "one" place....but this package was perfect.

Journey behind the falls was blah. Lot of time wasted on a mediocre sight. The observation deck was cool. Boat was fun but we stood in wrong place. Got drenched. Had to pull hood over our faces bc we were getting plummeted so didn't really get to view the horseshoe falls.

I had such an amazing time on this tour! Our guide, Alora, was really friendly, knowledgeable and organised. It was great to hear some stories about the history of the falls as we walked around. The experiences themselves were incredible. It was great to get so close to the falls and to see them from such unique angles. Worth noting - if you go on the boat ride you WILL get soaked, even wearing the poncho! Definitely still worth it but plan your outfit accordingly!!

Took us right up to the falls. Felt very safe but never the less extremely impressive. Very organized and handled a lot of people quickly and efficiently both on and off. Was nice to be able to use the vehicular to head to upper street levels. All in all worth every penny. I'm also old enough to remember the old reusable Macintosh's. Missed the smell lol but appreciated the plastic ponchos and the fact you recycled these afterwards.

Alora is an aweome guide who gave us a warm welcome and great (fun) facts about the area. She was very well organized, so we had hardly or no waiting time at all for the attractions.

The attractions chosen were all good and arranged in a good order. My bus to Niagara Falls ran 45 minutes late and my guide was helpful enabling me to join the tour even though I arrived 5 minutes late. However, the tour was advertised to finish at 12:30. At 12:30 our guide dropped us off in the line for the boat. With queuing for the boat elevators and the boat tour itself, we weren't finished until 1:30. I had to run to catch my bus back to Toronto at 1:45. I was also the very last person to make it onto the boat, and would have missed my bus otherwise. This meant that I had no time to get lunch or just have a wander about by myself, despite having built in more than an hour of wiggle room for this. There was another member of our tour who had to leave at 12:30 and did not get to go on the boat. My guide was very friendly, but English was not his first language and I had trouble following him. His English was technically very good, and all instructions were clear, but I could not understand most of the section of the tour where he told the stories about the people who had tried to go over the falls in barrels etc. I have much respect for anyone working a job in a second language, but it did mean that one of the main reasons to book a tour instead of (more cheaply) sorting individual activities independently was negated.

Our tour guide was amazing. She was a very personable and kind. In the beginning we had trouble finding the group. The initial email said we would be meeting outside of the Skylon Tower and our tour guide would be wearing a white shirt. After some stressful waiting out front, we learned that everyone was gathering inside and the tour guides were wearing black shirts. A simple update to their generic email would have solved this issue. There were other patrons waiting outside with us just as confused. With that all said, it was a great experience and we would use this tour organization again if opportunity arises.

We enjoyed having Alicia as our guide, however, the whole tour was a big rush from one place to the next. We didn't have time to take photos at the good spots and could not hear what she was saying because my daughter and I could not keep up with the fast pace she set. Also, the trip to the observation deck would be more effective if it was the last spot on the tour. We did see the attractions we bought tickets for. Our tour was supposed to be an hour and a half, but was more like 3 hours.

Took my parents for a birthday treat and this night tour was just... wow. The falls LIT UP in all those colors, and we even got to press the button to change them ourselves! Our guide, Sam, cracked so many jokes and made us feel like VIPs. Bit chilly so I was glad I brought a scarf, but honestly, the lights and fireworks were worth every goosebump. We stayed after to watch the lights shift for a while, just soaking it all in. 10/10, will remember this forever.

INSANE experience! Me and my buddy didn’t expect to actually control the lights on the falls (thought it was just a demo) but they legit let us do it. Guide was so chill. Only thing, you can’t take pics INSIDE the lighting room, which bummed us out a little. Still, outside shots were EPIC!

Boat tour/illumination tower. It was hard to locate guide, did not have on clothing that was mentioned in directions to assist with identification. We did not dine at restaurant mentioned in tour details, so we had to go to another restaurant and dinner was rushed. Overall, guide was nice, knowledgeable, and tour turned out ok, but was off to ruff start.

We loved the whole experience once we found the tour (thus the reason for "good" rather than "awesome". We were given incorrect meeting information which made for a rough start, but once we were on the tour, we loved the walk to the Falls and the stops along the way. Our guides were excellent, especially Bruno who took fabulous photos and helped with our baby carriage. We couldn't believe how far into the Falls the boat went...it was incredible. Definitely a "bucket list item" fulfilled.

The walking tour was insightful. It was hard to find the tour guide, though. The Hornblower ride was also great! Lines moved quickly and things ran smoothly. The ride itself allowed plenty of time to take in all of the sights and fully enjoy them. I only gave a 4 star instead of 5 star because of the difficulty finding the tour guide.

Amazing day. The falls are more spectacular than I anticipated
We did behind the falls, Skylon tower and boat ride. We also did additional helicopter ride.
All amazing but to be honest a bit too much to cram in. It's a bit of a rush to do it all. We almost missed the boat trip as the queue was so big. We just managed to do it, but was 50-50 if we made it back to the coach in time.
Do the boat first!! Not last, as it's the best bit so don't risk missing it

He was funny and friendly and had some great recommendations of places to eat and see in Toronto as well. The tours were great, though with all the add-ons, we didn't actually get enough free time to see the town, so that was a bit of a bummer, but overall was a great value for the cost.

We (my 17-years old children and me) had a nice and interessting day. We booked the trip to the falls including the journey behind the falls and the boat trip. Above all the boat trip was a nice experiance. We went close to the falls (the thundering water-masses).
Yes there were a lot of people at the falls. It is over-tourism! Thanks to our guide Bernhard for organising the tour. We had a wonderful day.

Amazing day. The falls are more spectacular than I anticipated We did behind the falls, Skylon tower and boat ride. We also did additional helicopter ride. All amazing but to be honest a bit too much to cram in. It's a bit of a rush to do it all. We almost missed the boat trip as the queue was so big. We just managed to do it, but was 50-50 if we made it back to the coach in time. Do the boat first!! Not last, as it's the best bit so don't risk missing it

It is very convenient to get a ride back and forth even if you have to pay the toll of paying 45min in the store to be explained about maple syrup but mostly to buy.

Well organised, good communication, beat the queues a big bonus as we were in prime tourist season. Our tour guide Malvina was lovely, friendly and put you at ease from the moment you got picked up. A great tour not to be missed and value for money

We (my 17-years old children and me) had a nice and interessting day. We booked the trip to the falls including the journey behind the falls and the boat trip. Above all the boat trip was a nice experiance. We went close to the falls (the thundering water-masses). Yes there were a lot of people at the falls. It is over-tourism! Thanks to our guide Bernhard for organising the tour. We had a wonderful day.

Bus trip was terrible, 4 hrs to get to the falls, 3 hrs to get back (traffic not your fault), then we had to rush like mad to see the tower, behind falls, & boat cruise by 3.30 pm....the bus left us behind at the tower at 12.45 pm...lots of wasted time (eg, stopping at maple leaf centre)...we had no time to look at the falls from the pathway

My daughter (14 years old) and I did the all-inclusive tour (Floral Clock, Whirlpool, Maple Syrup Tasting, Behind the falls, Tower, Boat Tour) at the end of July and were very enthusiastic. Our expectations were fully met and if we had to choose, we would book it again! I'll start with the "but" in the description: The first three stops in particular are very short or "touristy" (of course it's the whole vacation, otherwise we wouldn't be here). That means getting off the bus, taking photos and getting back on the bus. The maple syrup tasting is nice and at the same time clearly commercial! Did we have a problem with that? No! Why? The clear answer: the tour guide and our expectations. It was clear to us from the outset that the group tour was a group tour and therefore not everyone could hang around everywhere for hours. At the same time, and we both found this very positive, the tour guide told us from the outset how things would go and what we could actually expect. The Floral Clock is just a few flowers. Should you stop there? Yes! Should you stop there for a long time? No! So everything done right. The same with the other "advance" stops. It was completely different at the falls themselves. It was clearly explained to us when we should be where. Where we had to go and how to get in. Here, we were actually guided to the respective door so that we couldn't get lost (although it did happen to us on the way back on our own). We had enough time at ALL the stations and were able to see everything in a relatively relaxed manner. Behind the falls and the tower are quite nice and if you are there, you should definitely do that (the guide was right there too, you probably only come here once). The real highlight was of course the boat tour. Very impressive, very wet and an absolute must! Tip: Despite the poncho, pack a change of clothes and, if possible, perhaps slippers or similar for the boat. We stood at the bottom and at the very front and the water ran into the top of our boncho and our feet got wet from below. On the upper deck, at least our feet seemed to stay dry. The return journey took almost 2.5 hours due to the evening traffic jam. On a positive note, a short break was made so that we could use the toilets or buy snacks if necessary (not a planned tourist activity!). We stopped at a Tim Horton's so no commission for the driver or guide from the store). The bottom line, and you can probably tell from the review, is that the trip was worthwhile and is also highly recommended in terms of value for money! It's probably cheaper if you travel or take care of it yourself, but for us as "uninformed tourists" the package was definitely the right choice. Thank you very much!

The ease of not having to drive. I didn't have to purchase on my own. The experience was nice overall. Didn't like the vagueness of the meet up spot. Didn't like our tickets were held unless we paid the "tip".

We elected to go for the 'behind the falls' + the tower+a boat trip. We really enjoyed the trip overall - if we had a citicism it would be that the first part of the tour (behind the falls) felt rushed as we had only. 45 minutes to queue,descend see the 3 viewing points quickly and queue again for the lift back up in order to get the coach to the tower. We would have preferred more time to get more pictures and felt this was not organised for the visitors convenience. We also felt rushed when we stopped at the maple syrup stop which we enjoyed. The guide was good and answered all my questions. The falls were spectacular.

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect since this was my first tour from Toronto, but it turned out EPIC! Went with my partner, and we both loved the boat ride right up close to the falls—got SOAKED even with the ponchos (laughing in every photo). Our guide, Jen, was super chill and told some fun stories about local legends. Bit crowded at the main viewing points but we still found space for a selfie. Bus was comfy, AC worked (thank god, it was hot!). Would 100% do it again.

I honestly didn’t expect to be THAT blown away. Did the Day and Night Combo Tour last week w/ my partner—total game changer. The boat ride was the best part for us (got SOAKED, bring extra socks lol). Our guide, Marco, kept things light and fun, even when we hit some crowds right before sunset. Seeing the falls lit up at night was a whole vibe. We got a bit chilly after dark so maybe pack a light jacket (even in May!). The only thing that bugged me was that the elevator lines at Skylon Tower were kinda long, but worth it for the view. Def worth the $$ and time. Would do again for sure.

Our tour guide was fantastic! We were his first tour group as he had been in training to become a guide, and he was amazing. He was funny and friendly and had some great recommendations of places to eat and see in Toronto as well. The tours were great, though with all the add-ons, we didn't actually get enough free time to see the town, so that was a bit of a bummer, but overall was a great value for the cost.

Our tour guide was fantastic! We were his first tour group as he had been in training to become a guide, and he was amazing. He was funny and friendly and had some great recommendations of places to eat and see in Toronto as well. The tours were great, though with all the add-ons, we didn't actually get enough free time to see the town, so that was a bit of a bummer, but overall was a great value for the cost.

Amazing day. The falls are more spectacular than I anticipated We did behind the falls, Skylon tower and boat ride. We also did additional helicopter ride. All amazing but to be honest a bit too much to cram in. It's a bit of a rush to do it all. We almost missed the boat trip as the queue was so big. We just managed to do it, but was 50-50 if we made it back to the coach in time. Do the boat first!! Not last, as it's the best bit so don't risk missing it

It is very convenient to get a ride back and forth even if you have to pay the toll of paying 45min in the store to be explained about maple syrup but mostly to buy.

Bus trip was terrible, 4 hrs to get to the falls, 3 hrs to get back (traffic not your fault), then we had to rush like mad to see the tower, behind falls, & boat cruise by 3.30 pm....the bus left us behind at the tower at 12.45 pm...lots of wasted time (eg, stopping at maple leaf centre)...we had no time to look at the falls from the pathway

My daughter (14 years old) and I did the all-inclusive tour (Floral Clock, Whirlpool, Maple Syrup Tasting, Behind the falls, Tower, Boat Tour) at the end of July and were very enthusiastic. Our expectations were fully met and if we had to choose, we would book it again! I'll start with the "but" in the description: The first three stops in particular are very short or "touristy" (of course it's the whole vacation, otherwise we wouldn't be here). That means getting off the bus, taking photos and getting back on the bus. The maple syrup tasting is nice and at the same time clearly commercial! Did we have a problem with that? No! Why? The clear answer: the tour guide and our expectations. It was clear to us from the outset that the group tour was a group tour and therefore not everyone could hang around everywhere for hours. At the same time, and we both found this very positive, the tour guide told us from the outset how things would go and what we could actually expect. The Floral Clock is just a few flowers. Should you stop there? Yes! Should you stop there for a long time? No! So everything done right. The same with the other "advance" stops. It was completely different at the falls themselves. It was clearly explained to us when we should be where. Where we had to go and how to get in. Here, we were actually guided to the respective door so that we couldn't get lost (although it did happen to us on the way back on our own). We had enough time at ALL the stations and were able to see everything in a relatively relaxed manner. Behind the falls and the tower are quite nice and if you are there, you should definitely do that (the guide was right there too, you probably only come here once). The real highlight was of course the boat tour. Very impressive, very wet and an absolute must! Tip: Despite the poncho, pack a change of clothes and, if possible, perhaps slippers or similar for the boat. We stood at the bottom and at the very front and the water ran into the top of our boncho and our feet got wet from below. On the upper deck, at least our feet seemed to stay dry. The return journey took almost 2.5 hours due to the evening traffic jam. On a positive note, a short break was made so that we could use the toilets or buy snacks if necessary (not a planned tourist activity!). We stopped at a Tim Horton's so no commission for the driver or guide from the store). The bottom line, and you can probably tell from the review, is that the trip was worthwhile and is also highly recommended in terms of value for money! It's probably cheaper if you travel or take care of it yourself, but for us as "uninformed tourists" the package was definitely the right choice. Thank you very much!

I found booking easy and pick up points practical. The tour guide Lisa was very friendly and informative and organized and ran to schedule. I felt very safe in the bus as she's an excellent driver. I'd recommend this tour to anyone. The Falls themselves are amazing.

The ease of not having to drive. I didn't have to purchase on my own. The experience was nice overall. Didn't like the vagueness of the meet up spot. Didn't like our tickets were held unless we paid the "tip".

We had a good experience. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable, they picked us on time from the designated pickup location. The guide already had tickets for all the activities that we had selected, so everything went smoothly.

Salvatore was incredible! I forgot my ticket on the bus and he very kindly came with me to collect it to make sure I could go on the journey behind the falls. The tour itself was incredible! Would strongly recommend :)

It was a very straightforward trip and great value for money. our guide Bernard and the driver were great. There was loads of time to explore, we were never rushed and we were able to skip the queue and photographers at the journey behind the falls. Thanks cannot recommend highly enough

We elected to go for the 'behind the falls' + the tower+a boat trip. We really enjoyed the trip overall - if we had a citicism it would be that the first part of the tour (behind the falls) felt rushed as we had only. 45 minutes to queue,descend see the 3 viewing points quickly and queue again for the lift back up in order to get the coach to the tower. We would have preferred more time to get more pictures and felt this was not organised for the visitors convenience. We also felt rushed when we stopped at the maple syrup stop which we enjoyed. The guide was good and answered all my questions. The falls were spectacular.

the the skylone tower, boat ride and being behind the falls was pretty good and as expected. I would've liked some free time (as advertised) from the tour company to be able to see more of the town. We lost some time due to traffic and road closures in Toronto so at Niagara times felt very crunched and a bit rushed (not enough time for sightseeing or eating) Maple testing, and floral clock is something you can definitely skip, not much there Tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful

Went with my bf and it was romantic but also a little crowded, ngl. The changing the lights thing was def the coolest part, and our guide was suuuper patient with everyone asking Qs. Wish we could’ve stayed longer at the viewpoint. Still, would recommend if you want something diff at Niagara!

My sons and I had a great experience - perfect cadence of activities and enough time to fully enjoy each one. The highlight was the illumination tour. The tour put together a variety of activities that I wouldn't have been able to find and it gave us priority access to make the day super efficient and fun! Thank you!
