5.00The cataract moment is exciting. There are many free food options there but the free buffet on the 13th floor of the sheraton allows you to continue enjoying the views of the falls while eating and prolong the sensations. To put a but, in the end you don't have a minute to walk around. The rest of the excursion (visit Maple Shop or niagara on the lake... I think you can live without it)
Perfect day trip

5.00Alex and Hugo are such wonderful folks. Tour is good if you're not sure what you want to do in Niagara falls/Niagara-on-the-Lake given that there is actually much to see once you're in each stop. If you're on a mission to thoroughly explore each area e.g., specifically for nature, may not be suitable. Lunch was okay, might wish to consider one of the packages without lunch and instead going around the Niagara falls area to explore options given how built up the area is. Not very crowded this time of year.
Experience not to be missed.

5.00Alex our guide told us the story of Toronto as we left and then on the way to the important points. It is very affordable and available. Lunch is on the thirteenth floor of a tower in front of Niagara Falls and with a small balcony to take photos, lunch is buffet style a little small. We were able to stop at several places to discover the landscapes and local products. I strongly recommend this activity where everything is managed with a master’s hand. 2 French guys 👨🏻🦰🧔🏻♂️
