Fantastic Tour of Niagara Falls - We had a fantastic tour with Pamela. She was very engaging and full of information. She even answered all of our silly questions. The tour was seamless; she had our tickets ready for everything and made the process so easy! Highly recommend!

Highlight of our trip to Niagara Falls - Loved all the background and history from Cheryl. It sure added much more to the trip than just seeing the attractions by themselves. Loved the small group size. Met two other couples on the trip and had a great time.

Niagra Falls Sights in a Day - The ability to see everything without parking was great. Parking is a premium there.
Our tour guide was very helpful.

Cheryl the ' Energiser Bunny' delivers an excellent guided tour. - Cheryl our guide/host and driver has to be one of the most enthusiastic and service committed persons in this industry. Her complete focus was on our enjoyment of the tour and nothing was too much trouble for her, The entire tour was very well organised as well as interesting as well.
Her knowledge of the history of the attractions is outstanding and she quickly made every person in the group tour feel comfortable and confident of her ability to deliver her tour of the Canadian Niagara Falls and sights. She was extremely helpful with those that were somewhat less able to move about freely by ensuring that she helped them with their mobility items and offered assistance at each section of the tour.

Awesome tour! - Cheryl was an awesome guide. She answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable about the history and the area. I learned quite a bit but had fun at the same time. There were only 6 in our group, so the size was perfect. They picked us up from our hotel and dropped us off afterwards. We didn’t feel rushed during our stops and had ample time to explore the attractions. I would definitely recommend this tour!

It was well worth the experience! - Manesh gave us an incredible tour and insights that we would not normally know. Like where to see the best view on the boat, and encouraged us to enjoy the experience and not rush through everything. He made sure we had enough time to take pictures. He also gave us history, and we enjoyed places off the beaten trail that we would not have known about.

Perfect mix of stops - It was convenient to have someone take us to the three different sites that we visited and get us the tickets. I was hoping to learn more about the history of Niagara falls and little interesting facts. However, our tour guide seemed to only know the basics and got annoyed with me when I asked a lot of questions that she couldn't answer. She also had a strong accent which made it difficult for me to understand her when she was talking and I had to keep asking her to repeat things.
