Absolutely a crowd...

Dona_V, Jan 2026
Absolutely a crowd pleaser for the family. The kids loved it and said, “Very exciting!” and “tell them it they’re going to get wet.” It’s one of these simple activities that you can’t replicate with screens and gets all the smiles. Love those.

Niagara Falls Boat

John, our guide, was so personable and helpful. He told us all about the Falls and the best way to experience each stop.

It was a wonderful very quick tour of Niagara Falls. Not once did I look at my watch to see how much time I had left.

Quick Tour of the Falls

This was a great way to engage with the Falls! Three great stops with an excellent guide! Each stop brought something meaningful to the tour

Lisa_B, Sep 2025
Gary was amazing, as our tour guide. Niagara Falls was beautiful! We were sufficiently soaked at the end of the boat ride, but SO worth it! He gave us lots of local tips for restaurants and souvenirs.

Amazing!

Emma_B, Sep 2025
Tony was an absolute pleasure!! Had the most amazing day and really enjoyed his company, he was knowledgeable, funny, and somehow managed to have us on all attractions quicker than usual ques!! Would 1000% recommend this tour!

Great bundle of Canadian side activities

Lisa_A, Sep 2025
Great way to see the falls from the Canadian side of the falls! Transportation was key to making this tour a success. The wirlpool rapids was not especially impressive, but the other components organized in the tour were perfect.

Best Tour Ever!

Perfect way to visit Falls

Laura_M, Sep 2025
Tour guide John was great! He took good care of the whole group and gave interesting facts and funny stories. This was a perfect and easy way to see the falls and river rapids from several perspectives and to also avoid the crowds and parking challenges - highly recommend

Unpleasant experience

Jo_B, Aug 2025

Alicia_D, Aug 2025
A lot is packed into a short period of time. There is a lot of walking and waiting, but so worth it!

Stood Up

William_R, Aug 2025
It wouldn’t let me leave zero stars. I received reminders up until the meeting time. I was at the meeting point early. No one showed up. I contacted Magnificent Niagara Falls Tours and they at first said they had no record of my reservation, contacted the manager and then they said I cancelled (I didn’t) I asked for a refund and they said I would have to go through Viator. I contacted Viator and they said my reservation was valid and the issue was with Magnificent. After much back and forth I did get a refund. By then it was too late to book anything on my own and this was out first (and probably last) time at the falls. I wasted most of my one and only day with this. Awful experience. So my rating is Zero. Point. Zero.

Boat great, behind the falls disappointing

Hannah_C, Aug 2025
The boat, tour guide (Tony), air con on the bus, laving your bag on the bus and just having everything organised was all great. I would not bother with ‘journey behind the falls’ - it really stretches the word ‘journey’ to its limit, quite disappointing

Includes street tour...

rosemary_c, Jul 2025
Includes street tour around falls area. Our guide John McKinnon was outstanding. He provides local flavor tour not only pointing out the sites but suggests other things we may not have considered. He made the trip lots of fun and a wealth of local history.

Our tour guide Tony was...

Peter_S, Jul 2025
Our tour guide Tony was exceptional! The best guide we ever had Very informative and personable! Anyone would be lucky to have him as a guide.

An Experience of A Lifetime

Darrell_G, Jul 2025
One of the Best experience in my life, our guide was very knowledgeable and a really good person...The Waterfall was amazing and the boat 🚢 ride was the best part, Please put on your Bucket list 😀

Fun Niagara Falls journey

Adil_C, Jul 2025
Booked this tour for Niagara and very much enjoyed the trip. Unfortunately at the end of the trip, the driver could not be bothered to drop us back off directly at the Sheraton Fallsview and we had to walk an extra couple of blocks when we were already tired.

Not small group

Kristyna_D, Jul 2025
This is not a small group tour. We were on a coach bus with about 50 other people. Our tour guide/bus driver was knowledgeable and friendly. We were expecting a smaller group with a more guided tour. This was move of a driver to get us to the locations. .

Phenomenal Niagara Trip

Denise_J, Jul 2025
Our tour and tourguide John was excellent! He shared all of the history and fun facts of Niagara Falls and showed us places we wouldhave never seen. We loved it.
