Amazing tour! Saw all the main attractions without the worry of driving in winter conditions. Asif was wonderful and seems to know everyone. He was also an awesome photograph. Niagara Falls in winter was beautiful.

This was a great adventure, our guide was wonderful and gave us a good amount of history and facts at every destination. We experienced the view from behind the falls. If you plan to include the boat ride plan on that starting after the 1st week of May.

It was a fantastic experience. I went with my girlfriend to do the trip my mom never got to take on the one year anniversary of her passing. Asif, our amazing tour friend made it as close to perfect as it could have been.

Absolutely wonderful experience with Asif! He was so knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour!!!! We learned so much more than we would have on our own and Asif made sure to take amazing family pictures for us.

I paid too much money for the service, I know we had a tour guide; a very nice person by the way but the excursion wasn't worth the money. We paid $287 and maybe with $100 we could make it. The tasting of Canadian fudge was free and no tour, the behind the falls we walked by the tunnels but didn't get to the deck (closed), Table Rock, Clifton Hill, Queen Victoria and Whirlpool Rapids (closed) are free and they're just walk around area. We finished at the Skylon, paid $120 more to the tour guide Asif for the food and neither was worth it because we had chicken and no alcohol. At least this Niagara Falls excursion I don't recommend it.

"I had an amazing experience with this Asif during my visit to Niagara Falls, Ontario! From start to finish, everything was flawless. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, providing fascinating insights into the history and beauty of the falls and surrounding areas. We visited the Skylon Tower, where the views were breathtaking, and spent time at Niagara Falls, where the natural beauty was awe-inspiring.
The syrup and fudge tasting was a delightful treat, and I loved learning about the local flavors. Asif also had fantastic photography skills, capturing stunning photos for us throughout the tour. I felt like I got the best of both worlds - an informative and fun tour with memorable photos to look back on. I highly recommend him for anyone visiting Niagra Falls, ON

The funnest part was the journey behind the falls where you got to see the Canadian horseshoe falls up close and feel the power of the falls up close as well as the sound behind the falls. The next part was the Skylon Tower observation deck which was very windy but you can see insanely far and the ride up was fun too. I loved trying Canadian chocolate too as well as the maple syrup.

The experience was great and our guide, Asif was fantastic. We were even able to see the Winter Lights.

I liked that we had a driver. He was friendly and knowledgeable. We started late. We waited for another couple who met us at another location. They were great. We had to rush and basically missed the taste testing. We had to rush when we were under the falls too. Frankly too expensive for what we did. Having the driver was great bc it was cold.

Superb morning with Asif. Nice private tour with four of us only.
Asif is very knowledgeable and made sure we were all happy at every stage of the tour.
Recommended tour, especially this time of year when the boats are not running.
