The tour was well organised and our guide, Bernard, was very knowledgable and helpful. Throughly enjoyed the trip. The Niagra Falls were breathtaking and I would recommend the journey behind the falls, as the first view off them close up will stay with me forwver. The trip was made even pre special by having the opportunity to add on a helicopter ride over the falls - well worth the extra spend if you can.

Such a fun-packed day. Our bilingual tour guide Bernad was funny, informative and helpful and made our first trip to the falls a memorable one ! We did Journey behind the falls and the Hornblower cruise and both were definitely worth it. The round trip pickup and drop off from Toronto were very convenient and it was nice to let the navigation stresses out of our hands for the day!

Clear and helpful information about the meeting point, provided the day before. Very friendly guide. Quite comfortable bus. A very convenient package for visiting the falls! I would have preferred to skip the stops at the maple syrup factory and the floral clock, but they are necessarily included in the packages.

The weather was perfect. The falls were magnificent . The tour was good but a bit rushed. We had very little time in The Tower. By the time we got up there it was virtually time to get back on the bus. Same with the 'behind the falls ' and the boat ride. Otherwise very good.

Bernad was a great guide and he knew his stuff. The Niagra falls boat tour was an incredible experience and the view from the skylon was definitely worth it! Highly reccomended day trip from Toronto!

The tour was an amazing experience. Our guide Bernad was very well organised and made sure we reached each point on time and with the necessary information. We would definitely repeat it.

A full-day trip from Toronto takes the stress out of planning, with transportation, attraction tickets, and logistics arranged for you.

Round-trip AC coach transfers are included, along with a live guide sharing stories and local insights throughout the journey (German commentary is available on select departures).

Free time at Niagara Falls lets you explore the waterfront, take photos from different viewpoints, browse local attractions, or enjoy a meal overlooking the falls.

The Hornblower Cruise brings you remarkably close to the waterfalls, with open-air views of the mist, roar, and power of Horseshoe Falls from the river.

Along the way, you'll stop at the Floral Clock and Niagara Whirlpool, two of the region's most popular photo spots and natural landmarks.

Depending on the option selected, your experience may also include skip-the-line access to Journey Behind the Falls, entry to Skylon Tower, a narrated driving tour of Niagara Falls, and maple syrup and fudge tasting.

The tour was very well organized. We were picked up on time at the agreed-upon meeting point. During the ride, Bernad (our guide) explained the tour itinerary to us several times in very clear, slow English. Once we arrived, everything went very smoothly. We received all our tickets right at the start and were then able to manage our time as we pleased. Bernad was a great guide and even exchanged a few words with us in German. I highly recommend this tour.

The tour was well organized and Niagara Falls was very impressive. I would book the same tour again, but without Journey Behind the Falls - that's a bit unnecessary. Otherwise, we had really great guides. Also, if you book all three attractions, time is super short. You don't have any time left to look at anything else.
