Visiting Niagra Falls has been on my bucket list. Our tour with Emma did not disappoint! She reached out personally the day before to make sure we were coordinated for pickup. The van was clean and air conditioned. Emma answered questions and provided helpful information and recommendations about our visit to Buffalo, in addition to guiding us expertly on our Niagra tour. It was a spectacular once in a lifetime experience!
Our host, Saeid (not sure how to spell) was very informative and friendly. The black Mercedes vehicle was very comfortable. The tour took us up close to the water falls; We had free time to climb stairs to different parts of the falls. Recommend this tour. Expect to see lots of people but that is tourist attractions for you.
Jimmy was great, very nice, informative. There was a huge mix-up in pick-up location. We planned to meet at the location specified by Viator, and pre-booked an Uber. Jimmy called before the Uber arrived, and said he would pick us up. We still lost the booking fee for Uber. Also, the title of the tour was “ 7 Hour Niagara Falls USA Tour from Buffalo”. Including the travel time, we were back at our hotel in a little over 4 hours. A good tour, but not worth the price, as we were expecting to be there most of the day.
I was on the trip/guided to the falls with the provider Tripshepherd. It was an excellent trip, starting with the punctual pick-up from the agreed location, through the transfer to the destination, and returning to the starting point. The guide was extremely well-educated and provided initial information on the trip from the location to the falls, starting with the history (Buffalo/Niagara Falls/Lake Erie and Erie River) over the bridges towards Niagara Falls/Toronto and ending with the first industrial use of the falls. With the guide, you didn't have to queue anywhere, got straight onto the boat (Maid of Mist) and straight into the Cave of the Wind. You should definitely also visit Luna Island. Together on Goat Island, he also told us the history of the island, how it got its name, etc. He also explained the connection with Nicola Tesla and the falls (for generating electricity). All in all, a big thank you to the guide Saiyd, and the next time I come to the falls, I'll definitely be guided by this provider.
