5.00This was a great experience. Alex and Hugo were incredible! We appreciated the loose structure with lots of free time in Niagara. Be sure to plan your free time. After the boat, we walked up to the Table Rock Welcome Center (beautiful views along the walk) and then we ubered to the Niagara Distillery for a burger and beer flight before getting back on the bus. Niagara on the Lake time will go very quickly. Be sure and pick your must stop locations in advance.
Great tour and excellent guide

5.00Experience was amazing. The cost was well worth it . Transportation to Niagra, The maids of the mist , you had time to explore the town after the boat ride .After, we went to maple syrup tasting, then we went to the whirlpool. We also went to the town Niagara Falls on the lake . That town was amazing . It looked like a set from a movie .
Free & Easy at the Falls

5.00Enjoyed the arrangements and ample time to explore the Falls. It is free and easy but the Guide - Alex and Driver - Sameer was very helpful in providing suggestions and advising what we need to prepare for. One thing though is for those not familiar with Toronto, the subway only starts after 8.10am on Sundays so if you take the tour on Sunday make sure you can get to the pick-up point on time.
Great tour
