5Niagara Falls Toronto
This tour is a must do went in Toronto. The Niagara Falls tour on the Canadian side is so much prettier. There are hotels, casinos,and eating places around the area. The boat ride gets you so close to the Falls. The tour includes a visit to the town. We even did a maple tasting on the way back.
5Epic
Making memories!! What an epic day, Alex & Sameer, were amazing. Don’t often do coach trips but we had limited time, so easier to book a trip. The whole day was very informative, with clear instructions of times etc and the added bonus we were offered to be taken for a once in a lifetime helicopter trip, (paid separately) dropping off at helicopter pad etc, the village stop on the way back was an added bonus, certainly worth the money, large comfortable coach too, certainly worth doing!
4Very fun trip, but more free time would be nice
We had a very fun time with our guide Peter! Trip went really smooth and pick-up was nice and easy. The free time at the falls was to short for us. The boat on the falls was a once in a life time, and well worth the money!
5A Must Do!
Just such an amazing way to see so many beautiful places in a single day! Peter and Hugo made the journey very memorable and it was just the right amount of time in each place.
5100% WORTH IT
It was such an awesome experience! From the meeting point to get on the bus to the drop off, everything ran smoothly and was well worth the admission fee. Even though it was 9 hours, the length of the visit flew by because of how well organised it was. Our guide Peter and driver Hugo were lovely. Peter created a beautiful atmosphere onboard and was extremely insightful and helpful. Hugo took great care of us on his drive which made us all feel safer. Overall, an amazing experience and would recommend for anyone wanting a stress free experience to Niagara Falls and surrounding areas.

About Toronto
Toronto is Canada's biggest city, set on the shore of Lake Ontario, a patchwork of neighbourhoods under the tall needle of the CN Tower.
The CN Tower, 553 metres high, dominates a downtown skyline of glass towers, and the harbourfront below runs along Lake Ontario with ferries to the largely car-free Toronto Islands. The Royal Ontario Museum and the Art Gallery of Ontario are major collections, the St Lawrence Market is a long-established food hall, and the Distillery District has cobbled lanes between Victorian brick factories.
Top-ranked sights in Toronto: CN Tower, St. Lawrence Market, Entertainment District.
