Our Niagara's Best Tour is the perfect choice if you only have a few hours to spare and want to experience some of the best attractions in Niagara Falls Canada.
Your first adventure takes you on a Niagara City Cruise where you will journey to the base of the Horseshoe Falls to see, hear and feel the thunder and mist of Niagara Falls.
We then travel to Journey Behind the Falls. For a once in a lifetime view, you’ll first need to descend 125 feet to explore the 130-year-old tunnels behind the Falls. You will feel the thunderous vibration of the Horseshoe Falls long before you see them.
Your last stop is at the Whirlpool Rapids Observation Deck. Experience a first-hand lesson in the raw power and peril of the Niagara River’s Class 6 white-water rapids that puts you at the river’s edge. For those looking for an up-close and personal view of nature’s power, you will not want to miss this.

5.00Our guide, Tony, made this experience really special. The pick up was on time, and he made us feel welcome right away. His insider knowledge was invaluable. We got in and out of the attractions with minimal fuss, which made the excursions more relaxing and enjoyable. He gave us tips about where to eat like the locals, so we had a really nice lunch after the tour. We would highly recommend this experience for anyone who wants a taste of what Niagara has to offer. Be sure to ask for Tony!
Overall good. I’d book again.

4.00It was an overall great experience. Enjoyed the boat ride to the falls and the tour behind the falls. Really like getting to fast pass to the front of the line for the boat ride to the falls and journey behind the falls. Looking at the whirlpool was ok, would have traded it for more time behind the falls or something else, not sure what though.
Great starting point for newbies

5.00Excellent tour for people new to Niagara Falls. John was a knowledgeable and humourous guide. We especially appreciated the way he included 2 young people. He is very good with children.
Great tours begin with a great tour guide.
