5.00I went on March 7. I believe my driver was Suresh and the lady that was working the call center was great, reliable, and responded fast. I would book again. They gave us enough time to see Niagara Falls, walk around, site see, etc. Great trip.

5.00You make various different stops but nothing felt too excessive on terms of the time you get to spend in each location. If you don't come during summer season the Journey behind the falls potentially isn't really worth it, when I visited the two portals were blocked by ice so you couldn't really see anything you only got the view from the side and without clear weather this wasn't anything worth paying for. John shared a lot of information about the falls but also Toronto and the general area during our drive to the falls.

5.00Fantastic and well worth the money. Great knowledge from our tour guide Andrew, who gave us lots of information and knowledge about the falls. He also made everyone welcome, relaxed and got all other tourists and nationalities interacting and having fun.
