What a excellent way to celebrate a Birthday!

5.00What an extraordinary day! The tour was impeccably organized, and my guide, Micko, was a true standout. His knowledge and clear instructions made everything seamless, and his humour, along with great discounts, including an unforgettable helicopter tour that he suggested (I took his advice :P), truly enhanced the experience. I highly recommend booking through Viator; it was smooth and hassle-free. Micko kept us engaged and informed throughout, allowing us to relax and savour every moment. This adventure was absolutely unforgettable!

5.00Mel was a wonderful driver and guide providing lots of interesting and funny facts about Toronto, Ontario, and Niagara. He was a hoot! Thank you for providing such an enjoyable experience. The falls were spectacular...and viewing them from the tower, as well as taking the boat are a must. If you elect to do the boat ride, you're going to get quite wet, especially if riding on the upper deck. The disposable ponchos provide moderate water protection, so legs and feet will definitely get wet (even soaked).
Good but felt some time was wasted

3.00While the boat tour and seeing the falls is great, the drops along the way are too much. Especially Hen you stop for 1h and if you decided not to do the activity you're just wasting time. Our driver was fun and nice. But I felt I could have enjoyed more if there wasn't that many stops, nor were (heavily) encourage to take part in optional (and paid) extra activities (such as the tower). Next time, I'd rather drive there myself or take public transportation so I can have more quality time at the falls. But if you're looking for seeing as much as you canin a day then this tour could be a good option for you.
A must if going to Niagara from Toronto

5.00A great tour with an exceptional leader named Mel. He has a vast knowledge of all things Niagara and Canadian. Made the trip so fun with stories, songs and jokes. Not to mention the delicious complimentary Canadian cookies and water. The photo oops along the way were beautiful and well planned. Highly recommend going up in the Skylon tower as well as taking the boat ride!!
