Fun, well worth the money. Our tour guide Emery was fantastic and very knowledgeable. We had a great time
Beautiful experience. Cheryl, tour guider, was very knowledgeable about Niagara Falls, made us feel comfortable, and had us laughing throughout the tour. Loved it!
Ben was a wonderful tour guide! 10/10 recommend. Thank you Ben for being a great guide & making the experience worthwhile 😊
The tour was fantastic, very informative. Bryan is a great tour guide! Would recommend the next time we visit Niagara Falls again
Parminder was great and very knowledgeable. We enjoyed our tour with our 3 kids. Definitely be prepared to walk!
The tour was unnecessarily long. The tour guide did not stick to the schedule and other people in the group were late.
The experience was very good. The only downside was the elevators at the Skyline was only operating one. At least 30 people were stuck at the top and there was a long wait to get to the top to see the falls. Our tour guide Kingsley was awesome he did not let the slow elevator stop anything
Fun time! Highly recommend the Hornblower boat ride. You do get a little wet but it's well worth it. Great Experience.
We didn’t get as wet as we thought we would. Horseshoe Falls was spectacular. We got really close to the waterfall. Well worth the visit.
Brian and Julian were simply outstanding. They greeted us with a warm smile and demonstrated impressive knowledge throughout our visit. We thoroughly enjoyed their guided tour and would highly recommend either of them. They are truly assets to this company!
