    Great day out.
    Falls were very impressive, especially the 'behind the falls' experience. Our tour guide (Salvatore) was very knowledgeable and super friendly. Would recommend this to everyone!

    Perfect way to learn Toronto in a short time. Our guide Nissam was excellent. He catered to our specific needs quite well.

    Great time visiting all the sites. Beautiful day with partially cloudy skies made for great photos. Friendly guide provided great information and bypassed all the ticket lines and showed us all the great photo locations. Enjoyable day.

    We signed up for the day/evening cruise/dinner tour but subsequently notified that that tour was full. We ended up switching to a day/lunch tour. Not what we originally wanted but still a great day.

    Perfect way to see Toronto from the water. The tour was comfortable and smooth with a little commentary about the ship. They do have a bar/restaurant on board and also offers tourists a chance to help raise the sails. The kids really seemed to enjoy that! We took many photos and enjoyed the warm breeze.

    Extensive Niagara Falls tour with local guide Amat who was pleasant safe and knowledgeable.

    Loved going early and avoid crowds. Although seeing the Falls lit up would have be spectacular.

    It was a great day. Great driver & tour guide who passed on lots of knowledge. A very nice small group of people in tour- even had lunch with some of them. The Niagara Falls experience was great fun & spectacular.
    Niagara by the Lakes was a lovely place to wander & browse the shops.
    I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you

    Fantastic. Booked this at the last minute as my original tour was cancelled the night before. Gaurav was our guide, brilliant and very knowledgeable. Took time out to explain things to the group and also individually. He made sure I got my ticket for behind the Falls as the boat doesn’t go in March. Niagara-on-the-Lake was absolutely beautiful and we got time to go round all the attractions. Really enjoyed it and would recommend this tour.

    Positives
    - The guides on the two buses we took made an effort to share information about the city and site (with one guide making very corny jokes with very scripted-sounding delivery). One was a long-time Toronto native and had good answers for questions he received.
    - You do get to drive past many key landmarks in downtown Toronto, with stops well distributed near key sites.
    - You can use it to get as far N as the Casa Loma mansion.

    Negatives
    - Infrequent service: When we were in Toronto (October), there was a long lag between bus departures (34 minutes). Also, the forecast bus arrival time was not reliable. For example, we missed one bus by a few minutes and were told to come back at a certain time. The next bus showed up and left 5 minutes before that time. So, we ended up spending over an hour more than we wanted to milling around near one stop.
    - At $50, it seems very over-priced for the service. I would have preferred walking around downtown Toronto and just paying for an Uber or two. It would be reasonable value at $25.
    - It did not go past a couple definitive downtown Toronto sites - like the City Halls area.

    I enjoyed this cruise. The variety of food was delicious, the staff was friendly and professional and the views of the city from the water were beautiful.

    I had a friend visiting from overseas and so wanted to take in the Falls! We went early in the month, on the only cool, rainy day of the entire holiday. Of course! One man on the tour said, as we approached Niagara: “Look, the Falls are coming to meet us!” That helped set a positive tone, and our driver/guide, Shahz, did everything in his power to make the day a wonderful, (if wet) experience. Shahz was charming, courteous, professional, and attentive. He was wonderful!

    It was a memorable day, for sure. The tour provided us ample opportunities for viewing the Falls from various locations. I’m glad we went, even in the rain!

    We had such a great time on this sail. The crew was fantastic, very knowledgeable and had great sailing stories. We had a beautiful night. I never wanted to get off the boat! My teenagers loved it!

    Very good experience seeing Niagara Falls in person, our tour guide Haroon was very friendly and knowledgeable about Niagara Falls and its history. The tour bus came and collected us from our hotel in Toronto and after collecting the other parties made our way to the Niagara. Comfortable journey on the bus both ways with a bonus stop at the Maple Leaf Place to try maple syrup / chocolates. Overall a really good experience and would recommend anybody to do it!
