Great tour

Lots of positives- your guide knowledgable and friendly, your bus clean and spacious, stops included were great and enjoyable. The only negative was the timings at each stop were a little off. We went straight from the bus to the boat and were 10 minutes late back and missed the pick up time. We have 2 small children and only stopped for the toilet and nothing else. Very rushed last stop at Skylon tower with not quite enough time to take photos and explore. Would recommend

Very poor communication from Viator

The tour was exceptional a trip of a life time. Tour guide was excellent. Why the low score? If we hadn't made a trip to find the pick up point given via email - we would not have found massive road works out side the Holiday inn. A call to Viator revealed a change in pick up time and venue. Had we arrived with no knowledge of the change in pick up time and meeting point, we would have missed the trip. The new pick up point and new time were emailed on the day of my enquiry straight after my call, the day before tour.

Amazing experience!

Amazing! So many experiences for the price. Our group was greeted with a professional and personable guide who picked us up at our location of our choice. Brought us to the boat cruise, behind the falls, Skylon tower, maple fudge tasting, floral clock, whirlpool, American and Canadian dams. Knowledgeable about the areas. The boat cruise and behind the falls you get wet ponchos are provided. Each activity you were allotted time on your own to explore and enjoy.

Highly Recommend

Our family of 3 had a great time with our tour guide, Felix. He spent extra time taking us to the whirlpool and maple tasting. He was very knowledgeable about the area and attractions. Everyone's favorite part was the boat tour. The power of the water is amazing. We were surprised by the low cost of the 4 hour tour. Definitely recommend.

Must-see Niagara Falls with Ease

Our family of four had a wonderful time seeing the views from Skylon Tower, experiencing the power of the water with the Journey Behind the Falls and the Hornblower Boat Tour where the mist soaks you. Afshin was the perfect guide and driver. He picked us up at our hotel right on time. He was kind, helpful, interesting, and fun. He made us feel very welcome. He gave us all the great tips for enjoying the sights and he kept us moving. Little did we know, being from Ohio, this was Civic Holiday, and the city was quite busy. We ended up changing our dinner reservations from 8 to 9 due to the long lines for the boat, but it was all worth it. I would highly recommend BG Tours and Afshin. Thank you for the memories!

An incredible experience

Had a wonderful experience with Bernad and the BG Tours team from Toronto to Niagara Falls yesterday. Bernad was very knowledgeable and a friendly face throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone.
