Good organised trip
N1601ZQelizabethj, October 2026
Excellent driver,/ guide gave comprehensive commentary throughout the trip. We got a stop in Niagara on the Lake , a stop at a viewpoint before our boat trip in Niagara, where we did not have to wait. We then had plenty of time for lunch and exploring the town before our return home.

Mind Blowing,Michael the guide was fun very informative but the falls!!! A day to remember thanks for a brilliant day
★★★★★Tripadvisor review
A great day out to Niagra with Mike
761ChrisB, October 2026
What a great day - Mike, our tour guide was brilliant, friendly, welcoming, fun, knowledgeable and most amusing. His on board commentary was highly entertaining, interspersed throughout the various legs of the journey. The meeting pick up place, Hasty Market is close to the CN tower – almost all the those who had booked a ticket with this company had arrived 15-20 minutes prior to Mike turning up – he left dead on 8.15am, so don’t be late. You get plenty of time in the various locations to soak it all in before going to the next location - the grande finale is of course the falls, and WOW, they do not disappoint and this tour allows plenty of time to get on the boat, get soaked!! (we had a sunny dayb so dried off), plus free time afterwards to do whatever you like. We left Niagara around 3pm and were back in Toronto before 5. Tipping is gratefully received and appreciated and the suggested 10% seems somewhat a little tight, so we tipped more as it was well deserved. Nice to have supported a small company playing in quite a saturated ‘big tour’ market place.

The Perfect Tour for a Couple
mtquilt2013, October 2026
We feel we selected the best option for our tour. Michael, the tour guide, was sociable and very knowledgeable, pointing out historical sites, geographical features, and points of interest - cultural/commerce. Pick-up and drop-off were easy and in a convenient location. The small tour coach bus was comfortable. The stops on this tour were exactly the right fit for us. We appreciate the way we had control over what we saw and visited at each stop. Thankfully, we weren't in a group of fifty following a guide with a flag!
Response from the operator · Michael A
It’s true nobody like the guide flag lol Thx for sharing this detailed and thoughtful review with others. Safe travels home and beyond
