Itinerary
To begin your tour, your See Sight Tour guide will take you on a boat ride on the famous Maid of the Mist (Seasonal: Mid May - October). Before you board, you’ll have a chance to check out the view from the Prospect Point Observation Tower, located directly above the boarding site for the Maid of the Mist boat tour. While you’re on the boat tour, you’ll take in incredible views, hear the thunderous roars of the rushing waterfalls and you may get a bit wet, depending on where you stand - but don’t worry, you will be provided with a rain poncho for this boat ride.
Next, visit Goat Island which connects to Terrapin Point and Luna Island as well. While here you’ll learn about the history of the Falls, see the Nikola Tesla monument overlooking the Falls, and get very close to the Bridal Veil Falls which are situated between Goat Island and Luna Island.
After Goat Island, journey to the Cave of the Winds where you will descend 175ft. into the Niagara Gorge before heading out onto a series of walkways leading to the “hurricane deck” - only a few feet away from the Bridal Veil Falls. You will be so close that it will feel like you’re surrounded by tropical storm-like conditions, even when it’s calm out.

Emma was amazing…knowledgeable and energetic and would recommend her 100%..she is a local girl so she knows the surrounding history and gave us great tips on how to spend the rest of the day
If your Operator is TripShepherd, AVOID THIS TOUR! While waiting to be picked up at the hotel lobby, 15 minutes before the pickup time, the driver texted saying he would be 1 hour late. We then went to get breakfast and in the middle of breakfast, got another text saying to meet them right away. After trying to persuade us, I had to yell at them to honor the new pick up time. The driver was nice but 1. He admitted the was partying last night and that’s why he didn’t wake up on time (nervous at that moment), and 2. Drove like he was on a formula 1 race (worried we were going to crash at any moment). When in Niagara he rushed us through all the attractions (because of how late he was) and left us early for another driver to take us back to Toronto (even though he said we were staying later to make up for the late pick up). The second driver back to Toronto (called Precious) drove like a maniac and was falling asleep. Had to talk to him to wake him up once and when we hit traffic jams, he started getting desperate and started driving even worse! BAD EXPERIENCE. DO NIAGARA ON YOUR OWN OR WITH ANOTHER COMPANY. TRIPSHEPHERD, THE TOUR OPERATOR COMPANY, WAS A DISAPPOINTMENT!
Zaid was so nice and helpful. He took us for breakfast since I brought my kids. Was very patient and explain everything with detail. I would recommend another tour with him.
Selen was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable and pleasant. She represents your company well. We totally enjoyed the tour. Great tour fair price loved it Thanks again Selen!
I booked with Viator a long time ago. The pick-up location was set at the Marriott Falls View in Ontario. It seems that Viator not only failed to transmit our oder to TripShepperd - the local operator - but in addition sold us an impossible tour across the border. Nobody showed up at the pickup time, and only after calling TripShepperd dis we discover that nothing was planned for us. TripShepperd were nice and creative enough to help us have some tour on the Canadian side, but Viator failed us 100%. We paid over $1,000 and want to be redunded.
Our guide Said was terrific. Very personable and extremely helpful. He was on time and the van was very nice. The tour was well organized. We were able to see Maid of the Mist, Cave of the Winds and the Observation deck in 4 hours but only because Said drove, parked the van, purchased the tickets and explained details to us. We could never have done this as efficiently on our own. The convenience was worth the cost of the tour. I definitely recommend this tour.
Samara was an excellent tour guide - very informative and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend Samara to you!
Nick was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable in the area. His daughter Minnie was also very knowledgeable. Kept things moving and kept an eye on guests.
It was amazing our guide Erick was so nice the history he told us about the Niagara Falls. We couldn’t have ask for a better guide
