Great tour (Jackie)
What an incredible experience! The Niagara Falls Canada Open-Top (Wet) Jet Boat Tour was easily one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we boarded, our host Jackie kept everyone entertained with her fun personality, great sense of humor, informative commentary about the Niagara River and its history, and even some singing that had everyone smiling and laughing along.
The ride itself was absolutely thrilling. The powerful jet boat sped through the rolling rapids, giving us an exciting combination of adventure, beautiful scenery, and plenty of laughs. Captain Nick expertly piloted the boat through the swirling waters and challenging rapids with impressive skill and confidence, making us feel safe while still delivering an adrenaline-pumping ride.
A few tips for future riders: definitely wear water shoes, as you will get completely soaked from head to toe. The provided poncho is appreciated, but it's more useful for warmth than for keeping you dry. The water is relentless, especially if you're seated near the front of the boat. We were in the front row, and the force of the water hitting us was surprisingly powerful—each wave felt like a blast of icy river water! It's all part of the fun, but be prepared for a very wet and wild ride.
One thing to note is that the water is super cold, so this tour is probably best enjoyed on a hot summer day when getting drenched feels extra refreshing. Despite being soaked, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing throughout the entire adventure.
If you're looking for an exciting and unique way to experience Niagara Falls and the Niagara River, I highly recommend this tour. Huge thanks to Jackie for being such a fantastic host and entertainer and to Captain Nick for an amazing ride. Their combination of knowledge, enthusiasm, humor, and professionalism made this an unforgettable experience. We would highly recommend it!

The Sky Wheel is worth...
The Sky Wheel is worth the cost itself. Spectacular views of the Falls!!! Other attractions were worth it as well. Definitely fun stuff to do with the kids!
My only feedback is be a bit more specific as to where to pick up vouchers. Several ticket booths to go to, but only 1 location to redeem vouchers. A bit frustrating to wait in different lines to only get redirected again, multiple times.
Honestly, still worth it!

Highly recommend this Wine Tour!
We had a lovely time with Diane as our Tour guide. We were a very small group of 4 and we were given Royal treatment! Diane went the “extra mile” for sure!!! The wineries we visited were all wonderful and the staff that served us were amazing! They knew their job but also able to stray off course a bit and entertain us with stories! We all loved Brian!! The young lady at the last winery was very knowledgeable for her age and we really enjoyed her as well! Thank you Grape Escape Tours for a wonderful memory!!!

Higher than the Clouds
This is a must! We went at night and were able the watch the fireworks and Falls night show, which were both spectacular! The ride down takes some time bd star most of the people left immediately after the fireworks show. Patience is a virtue here so be prepared. There’s an arcade at the bottom which can be fun for kids.

Wonderful trip
A great excursion. Tom was awesome. He was so informative and fun. Ot was an all day adventure and we loved it. I thought the excursion included lunch but they said not. I was a little confused about that but overall it was a great day. Highly recommend this trip

Awesome Niagra day
Our tour guide Nick was awesome! We saw a little of everything and was a perfect tour for us as first timers to Niagra. Be aware that you will get pretty wet on the Maid of the Mist and the Cave of the winds, so dress accordingly. 10/10 recommend the tour!

Light queues on a long weekend..
We went on the sunny Victoria Day long weekend. The lineup was not long and the views were great. The boxes are a/c controlled. At night it may be a bit chilly so a light sweater may be helpful. The ride went around 4 times.
We realized we did not print out the voucher and were worried due to other reviews here. The ticket counter accepted the e-voucher & printed us tickets without any qualms.

The helicopter tour was...
The helicopter tour was the highlight of our trip to Niagara Falls! The weather forecast called for very windy conditions for our original day booked but we were able to switch our reservation to a different day with no problem. The staff were so friendly. My 9 year old had the time of his life. I would absolutely recommend this tour.

Unbeatable view and friendly skies!
Be sure to call the morning of your flight because the weather can change quickly. We had to reschedule, but they were very flexible! The view is unsurpassed !!! You fly way south over the falls and river . Plus you get to see some beautiful countryside. Our pilot was great at pointing things out!!! There were 3 in our group, so one sat up front and 2 in the backseat. Pictures were easy from the front seat!!!

Unique experience!
Before you book this experience, know that you are not going to actually see the Falls. The starting point is about 20 minute drive from Clifton Hills. You take a speed boat ride on Niagara on the Lake through several rapids and there is guided tour along the way. Do not go on this boat ride if you get motion sickness or seasick! Our boat had to turn around because a child started to get seasick. Our guide Grace was awesome! She was entertaining and put us at ease during the entire trip. The captain was very skilled at driving the boat and took us for an extra spin to make up for having to return to the dock. We sat in covered section of the boat and there was also an open section where the folks got really soaked! I would recommend this ride for anyone is not averse to motion or seasickness!

Take the tour. You’ll love it!
We spent the day with Tom as our guide. We loved what we saw the behind the falls, the boat ride, the flower clock, whirlpool, on our tour but the best part was how knowledgeable, funny, friendly and kind our guide was. Big fan. He’s the best. Take the tour. You will love it.
