Very well organised, on time, fantastic guide and interesting information provided. Only negative was the lunch as it was pretty poor in terms of quality.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Dear Valued Guest,
Thank you for sharing your feedback about your Niagara Falls day tour. We’re pleased to hear that the experience was well organized, punctual, and enhanced by a fantastic professional guide who provided interesting information throughout the journey.
We’re sorry that the lunch did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the quality of the food. This is not the standard we want associated with our guided Niagara Falls tours, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Your comments will be shared with our restaurant partner as we continue working to improve the overall guest experience.
Thank you for choosing Gray Line Niagara Falls.
Kind regards,
Breanna

Lunch was ok, not brilliant, but the organisation and information provided by the rep on the bus was first rate. Obviously very knowledgeable but not pushy as some reps are....a credit to the company by making the right comments at the right time.
Information on the boat trip and what to expect was spot on especially the advance notice of where to stand.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Dear valued guest,

Response from Host, Nov 2025
Dear valued guest
Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the river cruise and found the coach tour and village visit to be okay overall.
I’m sorry, however, that the lunch did not meet your expectations. That’s not the experience we aim to provide, and your comment is very helpful for us. We work closely with our restaurant partners, and feedback like yours is important so we can review the menu, quality, and value to ensure it feels worthwhile for our guests.
If you’d be open to sharing a bit more detail about what specifically didn’t work for you (food quality, selection, service, or value), please feel free to reach out to us directly so we can address it more thoroughly.
We appreciate you joining our tour and hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you again for a better all-around experience next time.
Kind regards, Stephanie

Very nice guide, very good food,
too little time on the cases, too long on the purchase hold.

Lieber Gast,
Vielen Dank für Ihr offenes Feedback. Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie unseren Reiseleiter sowie das Essen genossen haben. Gleichzeitig bedauern wir, dass die Zeitverteilung zwischen den Stopps für Sie nicht ideal war. Ihre Hinweise zur genaueren Programmbeschreibung und zur Aufenthaltsdauer an den Wasserfällen und Pausenstopps sind sehr wertvoll für uns und helfen dabei, unsere Touren noch besser abzustimmen.
Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder begrüßen zu dürfen, damit wir Ihnen ein noch ausgewogeneres Erlebnis bieten können.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Stephanie
