Best tour I’ve ever had. - John McKinnon was our tour guide and he made the experience wonderful! The falls were beautiful and Canada is great, but a tour ran by John McKinnon is the real reason to visit Canada.

Amazing tour of Niagara Falls/Canada - Our tour guide John was absolutely amazing. After our tour, my wife and I felt like we knew John for years. He not only showed us a tour, but he gave us history behind it. His knowledge surpasses anything you would read in a book. This was our 40th wedding anniversary and it was pretty amazing. Out of all the things that we did on our trip to Canada, we talked about our tour of the Niagara Falls with John. Thank you John, Stephen and Monica Ciabattoni

Perfection - As the name suggest the tour was magnificent. This wouldn't have been possible though without our excellent and local tour guide John McKinnon. He was personable, kind, and knowledgeable about the area. He answered any and all questions we had. Even gave us some great recommendations on restaurants in the area and what the best places to get souvenirs from were. A tour is only as good as the person guiding you.

Awestruck and impressed - The tour guide John was upbeat and knows the area well. He made our 25th Anniversary trip a little more memorable. The boat trip into the mist is a must do. The power of nature is amazing. John had many extra area comments, tips and suggestions. We will forever remember this trip and this tour.

Niagara Falls in November - Great experience! I would highly recommend for off-season travel. Our travel guide John McKinnon was amazing, he led a group of about 12-14 people. He is very informative and being a long-time local in Niagara Falls over 30 years. He stories and history of Niagara Falls was a true blessing. He had charisma during the entire trip.
Our 1st stop- Niagara Falls Tunnel.
2nd stop- Niagara Falls Whirlpool
Lastly- Niagara Falls boat cruise.
This tour did not include a meal. But complimentary water was provided.

Thrilling adventure - Amazing tour. Great tour leader. All the pictures and videos I have seen over the years can’t begin to touch the feeling of really being in the middle of all the power and beauty of the falls.

Exceptional service and unforgettable experience. - Stayed on Canada side and our hotel recommended this tour. Let’s just say it exceeded my expectations. John Makinnon was our guide and there is nobody Id rather have than this man who was born and raised in this town who knows all the ins and outs to this area when it comes to tour questions and even outside of your questions and recommendations, this man knew the answers. Was so amazed at the amount of work he did, very upbeat, engaging, assisted so lovingly with the elderly/disabled and always ensuring everyone’s comforts during entire tour. By far a great experience from start to finish. Please ensure to offer a good tip to these workers especially if provided with exceptional service like we did. John was an amazing guide and such a hard worker. Highly recommend this tour if you are in Canada side staying for Niagra Falls.
