Seeing the falls was one of the highlights of our trip. This tour was great. We had plenty of time to see the falls and walk the paths for different viewing opportunities. We even had time to enjoy a snack at the visitor center. Laufas Museum was fascinating and the scenery was beautiful. The bus was comfortable. The tour guide was helpful and interesting.

Our driver/ tour guide was knowledgeable. He shared stories about the places we visited. I wished there were water bottles provided to tourists because it was 3.5 hours long.
