Take your skip the ticket line and hop on a Niagara Cruise boat with your keepsake poncho or the Journey Behind the Falls excursion, depending on the season (if option selected). Cruise up Niagara River for up-close views of the awesome Horseshoe Falls. Join your English-speaking guide for lunch (if option selected) - taking in views above the falls.

5.00This was an excellent tour. Very well-organized. Fun itinerary, plenty of time to grab lunch in Niagara Falls and the boat ride is a must (wear shoes that dry easily!).
Great tour to Niagara Falls!

4.00Amazing experience being able to see the Niagara Falls (boat and behind the falls) with added stops to maple tasting, whirlpool and Niagara on the Lake. Alex, our guide and Sameer, our driver were great! We would’ve liked more time between the boat and journey behind the falls as it was quite busy during our tour and it was a tight interval. Nevertheless, highly recommend the tour and loved our time at Niagara on the Lake as well!
It was a long day with a lot of content. Long bus ride but Alex and Samir were amazing so it was never boring.

5.00Very recommended tour to visit Niagara falls with cruise, maple tasting and Niagara on the Lake. Our guide, Alex, was very engaging and entertaining. The programme was good and had ample time to spend on every location. You should visit the Niagara Falls at least once if you happen to be in Toronto.
