Fantastic Tour - Asif is the BEST Guide & May is the Perfect Time to Visit! - My wife and I just experienced the "Complete Niagara Falls Tour," including the iconic Boat Ride (Hornblower/Niagara City Cruises) and the incredible Journey Behind the Falls, and it was absolutely phenomenal! We visited in May 2025, and I cannot recommend this time of year enough – the attractions were not crowded at all, which made for a much more personal and enjoyable experience. The real star of our tour, however, was our guide, Asif. He was truly exceptional! From the moment he greeted us, Asif was warm, engaging, incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Falls and the surrounding area, and had a fantastic sense of humor. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, shared fascinating stories, pointed out the best photo spots (and was a great photographer himself!), and navigated everything seamlessly. If you can request Asif, DO IT! He made a wonderful trip even more memorable. The attractions themselves were breathtaking: Niagara City Cruises Boat Ride: Getting that close to the thundering Horseshoe Falls is an experience like no other. You feel the raw power of nature, and yes, you will get delightfully soaked by the mist! The ponchos provided are a must. With fewer crowds, we had excellent vantage points on the boat. Journey Behind the Falls: Standing on the observation deck almost directly behind the massive curtain of water was awe-inspiring. Hearing and feeling the rumble of the water was incredible. Again, the lack of significant lines in May made this so much more pleasant. The weather during our tour was slightly overcast, which honestly was a blessing. It kept temperatures comfortable for walking around and meant no harsh sun glare in our photos. It was perfect sightseeing weather. This tour package was a fantastic way to experience the highlights of the Canadian side without any stress. Knowing that tickets and entry were sorted, and having Asif lead the way, allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the wonder of Niagara Falls. Tips for visitors: - Consider visiting in the shoulder season like May to avoid peak crowds. - Definitely try to get on a tour with Asif – he’s a gem! - Wear comfortable shoes as there's a fair bit of walking to enjoy all the views. - Embrace the mist – it’s all part of the fun! - Highly, highly recommend this tour and a huge thank you to Asif for an unforgettable day!
