Nothing short of amazing! - Fully enjoyed the tour! Our tour guide Kaleb was amazing with great energy, and very informative. He was helpful along the way. The journey behind the falls gave amazing views of the falls, and the maple syrup tasting was interesting. Definitely would book again whenever I visit Toronto again!

Outstanding service! Highly recommended! - I have booked Queen tour for my clients who had lots of business meetings in the Toronto area as well as a day off at Niagara Falls. We have booked an Executive bus for a group of 14. The service was outstanding. Eden E from the office was extra ordinary helpful. Everything was perfect and very well organized. I couldn’t have asked for better than that. Thank you very much and keep on going.

Great time in Niagra - We had a great time exploring Niagra thanks ot Queen Tour and especially Tracy. The pick up location was clearly communicated and pickup went very smoothly. Tracy was a great driver and the mini bus was very comfortable. Tracy was very knowledgable and provided us with interesting information during the drive. Once there, she provided a great lunch recommendation. What we appreciated most was the amount of time we had to explore Niagra. The meet up location was also clearly communicated. Overall we had a great experience. Thank you Tracey!

Money and time well spent - We were staying a few days in Toronto and wanted to visit Niagara Falls during our time there. Considered the train/bus option, Uber, or this tour and really it's an easy decision -- we chose the Queen Tour and are so glad we did. Our tour guide, Tracy, was informative and truly loved her job. She showed us around the town, offered suggestions, and just made the day fun and carefree. I can't imagine any other method could have gotten us a similar experience -- she drove us around town pointing out several areas to visit before dropping us off for the day. We experienced maple tasting, spent much time around the falls and Behind the Falls, hopped on the Niagara Skytower, ate and shopped in town, and were back in Toronto before traffic got bad. We loved our experience and would 100% recommend the Queen Tour.

Top Notch Experience! - Awesome tour! Kaleb was the best tour guide I have ever experienced using Viator. He was funny, knowledgeable, and great at time management. I loved that he dropped us off at the end of the falls away from the other attractions so that we would have to walk the length of the falls FIRST seeing all the beauty and taking our photos before venturing into the tourist area to see the other attractions. I mention this because I noticed the other tours were dropping their passengers off in the crowded tourist area defeating the purpose of going to Niagara Falls. You’ve seen one Hard Rock Cafe or Ripleys you’ve seen them all. The majestic view of the falls is unbeatable. Thank you Kaleb and Queen Tours for a wonderful experience!

The Falls are beautiful - This was a great way to see the Falls and spend a day, although, I found the area surrounding the Falls bitterly disappointing in its commercialisation, such a lost opportunity there for Canada. Regardless the guide was lovely, full of information (none of which I remember) - my only complaint would be that the first stop was to look at a view of the Niagara River - in an of itself, not a bad thing, however, a bus full of people who've all had their morning coffee making a "first stop" where there is absolutely nothing other than the view - not a good idea. All of the ladies on board were looking for a bathroom! Other than that - great tour - nice way to spend a day and see the Falls.

Day trip to Niagara Falls - The Falls are amazing and truly worth seeing whilst in Toronto. The other side of the road not so. Our guide Kaleb was great, friendly and hospitable.
