Overview

Experience the best of Niagara Falls on this full-day tour from Toronto on our luxurious, fully equipped motor coach. Upon arrival, we will guide you to Table Rock Welcome Centre and the Whirlpool Rapids lookout. From May to November, you may wish to upgrade your experience and include the legendary Niagara City Cruises boat ride (Niagara Takes Flight substituted when not in operation). Journey Behind the Falls is available year-round. This memorable experience takes you through tunnels that end with water splashing down from the falls. While our guide is available to assist you in your exploration of the area, enjoy approximately an hour of free time on your own, indulging in an optional Canadian-themed lunch at Maple Leaf Place with maple syrup, fudge, and chocolate tastings along the Maple Trail.
  • Tailor your tour with a range of flexible options
  • Enjoy a maple syrup tasting, a Canadian delicacy
  • Your guide will show you hidden gems that most visitors to the falls miss
  • Includes transportation to and from Toronto

Value exceeded expectations

Jocelyn_A, Mar 2026
We had a great time on this tour. Michael was funny and had give us all the right information and directions we needed to feel safe and comfortable. The tunnels were nice, there was ice on the walls so it was cold there, but the views were greater

Our travel guide was excellent and super patient even though a couple of us ran later than we planned. Very helpful and super kind, making the whole experience so much fun - especially for an iPad kid!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Dear valued guest Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear your travel guide was excellent, patient, and so kind—even with a few late arrivals. Our goal is always to make everyone feel supported and relaxed, and we’re so happy it added to the fun of the day. And we absolutely love that it was especially enjoyable for an “iPad kid” too—turning a day out into a real-life adventure is the best compliment we could receive! We hope to welcome you again soon. Kind regards, Stephanie
