    We elected to go for the 'behind the falls' + the tower+a boat trip. We really enjoyed the trip overall - if we had a citicism it would be that the first part of the tour (behind the falls) felt rushed as we had only. 45 minutes to queue,descend see the 3 viewing points quickly and queue again for the lift back up in order to get the coach to the tower. We would have preferred more time to get more pictures and felt this was not organised for the visitors convenience. We also felt rushed when we stopped at the maple syrup stop which we enjoyed. The guide was good and answered all my questions. The falls were spectacular.

    the the skylone tower, boat ride and being behind the falls was pretty good and as expected. I would've liked some free time (as advertised) from the tour company to be able to see more of the town. We lost some time due to traffic and road closures in Toronto so at Niagara times felt very crunched and a bit rushed (not enough time for sightseeing or eating) Maple testing, and floral clock is something you can definitely skip, not much there Tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful
