Jullisa was our guide this morning and she was knowledgeable, friendly and we had the best time. It was our first time ever coming to Niagara Falls and I'm so glad we did the guided tour. Cave of the winds was really cool, you will get soaked!! The Maid of the mist was the best. Everything was really fun and it was an amazing day.

We are so grateful, we went with this company. Our tour guide Julian was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and fun to talk with, engaging and very interactive with the group. The guys at the desk were very helpful for me and my family.When I messed up and we were at the wrong meeting point , they graciously moved our time so that we could still attend the walk behind the falls and the boat ride! They offered us cold water and invited me to stop crying because we were in good hands and they were absolutely right. I would 100% recommend going through this company to explore Niagara Falls Canada!!

It was a beautiful day. The guide provided all the information. We had the pass for behind the falls, the boat ride, and the observation tower. As a family, we had just enough time to do everything without wasting too much time. Unfortunately, we hadn’t brought a picnic because we thought we’d buy something there to eat peacefully in front of the falls, but we didn’t have time. We only had five minutes to grab a bag of chips.

Our guide, MJ was super knowledgeable and fun. We appreciated her suggestions as to what were absolute "must experience" activities and sights. The Maid of the Mist ride was our top favorite memory of the trip. We loved the cool water on a hot day, the beautiful falls and the excitement of getting so close to all of that rushing water!

An exceptional experience—the service was top-notch, the staff was very attentive to customers, and when some people cut in front of us, they stepped in to set things right, which was much appreciated—thank you. The pilot was very professional, too. No complaints at all—I highly recommend this experience to everyone.
