All the best parts of Niagara with an excellent guide

Get to see all the best sights of Niagara with a lovely guide, Haroon, providing lots of useful facts and information along the way. Just the right amount of time at all three key features - walk behind the falls, boat and tower. Expect some delays due to late arrivals back to the bus but Haroon deals with them very well. The visit to the maple syrup factory is a good opportunity for lunch, but food there is pricey. The later start from Toronto means mid- to late-afternoon visits to the main sites, when queues seemed to be shorter. Great day out for family of 4 incl. teenagers.

Get to see all the best sights of Niagara with a lovely guide

A good option if you don't want an early start which takes in the falls early to late afternoon. Haroon was an excellent guide and driver, providing useful info throughout the day. Expect to be delayed by other passengers' late return to the bus but Haroon plays it well when it happened for us. Skipped the queue at the journey behind the falls but nowhere else, but the timing of the boat trip meant the queues were not long. The 1 hour visit to the maple syrup factory is a nice touch providing a lunch stop albeit the food isn't cheap! A great day out for us as a family of 4.

A perfect day out with loads to do.

An excellent family day out filled with brilliant sight seeing opportunities and a great range of experiences and activities that are absolutely worth the money. Our guide (Haroon) was amazing. He had so much knowledge about the history of Niagara falls and many other places along the visit and didn’t fail to keep us entertained and informed throughout the long yet extremely enjoyable 9 hour day. The group was rather large at about 40-50 people but the coach was plenty big enough and cool enough on the hot day. The large group didn’t matter either as it was mostly self guided at the different activities. Overall a perfect day out for anyone looking to have an amazing day out.
