It was all very good. The maple syrup testing was clearly a commercial stop but interesting. The behind the falls walk was good and well organised. But the highlight was the boat trip to the falls was brilliant - so glad I took Waterproof trousers ! Long drive but our guide Winston was very good and made the trip more enjoyable.

We loved the fact that everything was organized and that we left from downtown Toronto, which was very convenient. Everything was well explained, and we had plenty of time for a leisurely visit. We did the Behind the Falls tour and the Hornblower boat, which were 2 really great attractions not to be missed! The other little tours were nice too. Our only regret was not being able to visit Niagara on the lake, which sounds charming. The guide and driver were very pleasant and accommodating. Just one small downside: asking for a tip with a bit of insistence, on an expected fare and as soon as we arrived at the site, is not very much appreciated.

This is already my second Niagara experience and it never seize to excite me. I did the US side first and got curious how and what it is to experience Canada side and I am so glad I did. Journey Behind The Falls is highly recommended for photo ops with the falls as the background. The boat cruise Voyage To The Falls is exhilirating, enjoyed the free shower😂it's. I shall return when I revisit Canada. I will treasure the experience. You have never been to Niagara Falls if you have not experienced both Voyage

This Toronto to Niagara Falls tour makes for a fantastic day at the Falls, inclusive of the two major attractions on the Canadian side.

Choose between Journey Behind the Falls, where you will be privy to a behind-the-scenes look after descending 125 feet. Or opt for the Hornblower Cruise to get an up-close, immersive experience of the Falls. Add both experiences to your tour if you want to make the most of your trip!

The tour includes stops at the Floral Clock and Niagara Whirlpool Rapids, and to savor locally made maple syrup and fudge at Maple Leaf Place.

Travel in comfort in a climate-controlled coach, enjoying scenic views and live commentary.

With seamless round-trip transportation, priority attraction access, and free time to explore the area at your own pace, this is the ultimate Niagara Falls experience for those who want to cover everything in a day.

The Falls was nice, especailly the Hornblower cruise. However, the BG tour company sent me a misleading email the day before the tour about the changes in pickup time and location, so I had to wake up way earlier than planned to get to a new pick-up point. But my guide was totally unware of this and I had to sort this out with him before being allowed to get on the coach. Turns out that the company sent me a wrong email that was supposed to be sent to someone else.
