5.00The magic of Niagara Falls speaks for itself, but this is a really well organised tour and in my opinion, well worth the money. Kaleb picked us up right on time and throughout the day made sure that we had our tickets and were aware of our met up time. I should point out that we had plenty of time to explore Niagara. Another fantastic tour for us from viator. We’ve done a lot of travelling and rarely book with anyone else! Would definitely recommend this tour.

5.00The experience was amazing! The walk EN the hornblower ES spectacular and DE Leo's recommendations were really worth it! So much that DE get a better place on the boat without dying of heat on the try! The guide “King Leo” was very good and always had a very good predisposition, providing interesting data throughout the trip. The driver who accompanied him was very friendly. My only suggestion EN cia would be that there is a bad distribution DE time, since at noon EN the viewpoint stop I think they granted more than 2hs and yet at the boat stop they gave only the necessary time to get on and go to the store. It would have been preferable to have had more time EN that last stop to visit the Clifton Hill area DE r.
Niagara falls: what a treat.
