Get John as your guide!

Wow! What a great way to enjoy some of the top attractions and views all in one trip! Absolutely breathtaking.
We started at Journey Behind the Falls for about 50 minutes. So loud and cool!
We then saw the most gorgeous and expensive view of the river and rapids (and color-changing trees!) at the Whirlpool Observation deck for about 15 minutes. We got a great photo from and with our phenomenal tour guide, John McKinnon.
Lastly, we went to Niagara City Cruises where I’ve read it takes the same path as Maid of the Mist. You’ll get wet, even with the poncho! So glad we wore water shoes! It gets hard to see at the peak of the ride, so rely on your other senses. The sound and feel are remarkable.
Our tour guide, John, made the whole trip even better (if you can believe it)! He was kind, charismatic, had wonderful facts and stories, and was simply fabulous at his job. Thanks, John!

Outstanding adventure
AshleyE770, October 2026
Had a fantastic time. This adventure was exactly what we had in mind when we booked our trip to Niagara. Our guide Tony was excellent. Funny and informative. Kept us on track and made the day enjoyable. Be prepared when you are on the boat. We got soaked. Totally worth it. The views from that close to the falls was spectacular. Highly recommend this tour.
