Highlights

See Niagara Falls transform from golden hour to glowing night on this guided evening coach tour from Toronto. Travel the scenic Niagara River Parkway, stopping at the Whirlpool Rapids for photos and geological insights. Visit Maple Leaf Place to sample Canadian maple syrup, chocolate, and fudge, then continue to Table Rock Welcome Centre for breathtaking views of Horseshoe Falls. Guests can upgrade their experience with either a Fallsview dinner at Queen Victoria Place—including exclusive Illumination Tower access to light up the Falls—or the famous Niagara City Cruises boat ride, sailing right into the mist at the base of the Falls. Those not selecting upgrades enjoy free time at Clifton Hill or along the Niagara Parkway. The evening ends with the fireworks and illumination display before returning comfortably to Toronto.

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.
