Best Guide for Niagara Small Group Walking Tour- Alisha ~!

5.00Alisha was the BEST! She was joyful, professional, a wealth of information, and ran a tight smooth tour - she really didn't miss a beat and as a result, neither did we. We walked and walked, for approx 3.5 hours - Starting out by enjoying the views of the falls and surrounding areas from the top of the Skylon Tower, then onto the tunnels for the tours beneath the Horseshoe Falls, and then to the Hornblower Cruise - it was a day to remember!! She even left us with an abundance of tips for where to go, and what not to miss! So glad we did this tour. Thanks Alisha! <3
Great for family

5.00Alora was a fun and knowledgeable tour guide. She kept things moving and was also flexible and gave us plenty of time to enjoy all of the attractions. Purchasing the package allowed us to move through some lines at attractions quicker than those that didn’t purchase tickets through the tour. Would definitely recommend.
