Great experience for us and our teens! - We had a great time on this day trip from Toronto to Niagara Falls - us and our two teens! And if you have teens, you know that’s high praise. The driver/tour guide was knowledgeable and we learned about all kinds of things about both locations and in between. Michael was fabulous at his job! I’ve already recommended this day trip to my parents travel group who will be here later in the year.
