Mel was an absolute sweetheart and made the bus ride experience a blast! 10/10 recommend having his bus while on the tour. For being a first timer to all of these places, this was the way to do it, including the boat ride!
My guide was informative, helpful, kind and funny. The trip was full and well organised. As a sole female traveler I felt very comfortable
Boring guide tour with strange jokes if you not in British humor. Not enough time to explore Niagara falls themselfs, better to go without tour at all by public bus.
Our guide, Melvin, was great giving us history, landmarks, and a little poetry in between. He was courteous and considerate.
It was great, the guide was helpful and insightful and the boat and tower at Niagara Falls were well worth the visit
Mel was extraordinary best tour we have ever taken. Gave facts during entire trip was so informative.
I booked the tour for friends from Edmonton and although I live in Toronto I wanted to experience being a tourist. When I booked the day tour, I thought for the price I paid that it included the whirlpool and a stop at the littlest chapel. It all worked out though as we walked and took pictures close to the falls. But still a bit disappointed
Micko was a great guide and driver! We had a wonderful time in Niagara. Highly recommend! Thank you, Micko!
Our tour guide was amazing and took us everywhere safely. It was a great tour and I can’t wait to go back. The van was comfortable and had ac working. A great way to see Niagara Falls and more!
