Our guide was prompt and very helpful. Our only disappointment was not getting to see any of the American side of the falls. We especially enjoyed our Maid of the Mist tour and the trip up the tower for a wonderful view. We were given a voucher for a return trip to the tower in the evening. However, we had to leave town immediately after the tour so missed the night views.
A wonderful experience, we wish we had the time to ride it again.
One of the best Tours I have ever been on . The guide was very kind funny and Knowledgeable in the History of the area .I would recomendit to anyone going to the Falls
Simply great. the tour guide was very friendly and the tour was well organised.
This was excellent. The guide was fantastic and there was plenty of time to see and do everything. No big rush and small tour group. Coming from Australia, I would recommend it as it was relaxing and fun
Friendly guide, good information.
Everything worked as promised. All of us had a good time.
We really enjoyed the trip. I wish we could have done Maid of the Mist but it was not open yet. The tour guide was very informative and let us stop whenever we wanted to take pictures. The day of our actual tour it was sleeting so we asked if we could change to the following day and they said yes! It turned out to be the most beautiful day of the trip and we even had a rainbow! Thank you!
Great Pass....especially if there are a few things other than Niagra falls you plan to see....however, if you main reason is just to see the fall I wouldn't waste my money because you don't need it to see the falls!!!!!!
We purcahsed and printed our passes at our hotel at the top of Clifton Hill. We got a one day all-inclusive pass so we wanted to get sight-seeing immediately. We were told that we can redeem our paper ticket for the card at Nightmares, but it didn't open until noon. The other option was the Bird Kingdom (way down at the bottom of the hill, a half hour walk). When we arrived at Bird Kingdom, the rep said that her computer was not set up yet to print the Viator passes, and we would have to go to Nightmares to redeem them and begin our sightseeing. So we called Viator and they had someone come to the bird kingdom and print our card while we toured the bird kingdom. As an apology, Viator gave us a two day pass, but we were only able to be in Niagara Falls for one day, so we really couldn't use it. The card, however, was a good deal; easy to use and well worth the money despite the initial "glitch".
This is probably a good value but more than anything, we found ourselves feeling like we were on a scavenger hunt. We redeemed it on the Canada side at Fear Factory and the man that worked there was very rude. We did not realize that the attractions on the U.S. side required going back over to the U.S. tourist center to redeem the power pass again for US attractions. Before doing this, we had waited in line for the Maid of the Mist on the Canada side but we were finally told that the power pass was not accepted there. The girl there told us we had to go over to the U.S. side. We just found the pass to be time-consuming. More than anything, we enjoyed the magic show. The dinner there (not included) was reasonable and good. The Maid of the Mist was fun but it was just very cold and windy when we went and we got very wet and froze! The other small attractions were not very expensive and what few we ended up having time to do, we could have just paid for and not been frustrated finding them on a map and brochure.
Just like the other day trip to Niagara Falls that starts in the morning this one is about the Maid of the Myst and the dinner. There won't be enough time for anything else and the guide makes it very clear early on that the objective is to get the visitors in and out of Niagara Falls as quickly as possible. Everything seems rushed. The original itinerary distributed to us by a guide said the tour leaves Niagara Falls by 21:00, but the guide may cut it short by 30 min at his/er discretion. If you really want to spend time by the Falls and explore the surroundings at your own pace, better to get their on your own. Visiting winery is a waste of time.
The official tour was very basic and probably not worth the money.
But we really did enjoy the boat ride.
Was really dissapointed when we were told that the Miad of the mist boat tour was done the weekend before we arrived. Small print stated runs until late October should be more specific with a date. having said that our tour guide Robin was excellant and really did a outstanding job with the tour that we took behind the falls and other sights. well worth it.
We had a great time. This was our grandson's first visit to the Falls and Canada and he just kept saying, "This is awesome". He is 13. I have to admit that the Maid of the Mist ride was COLD and WET. But, we had a fantastic time. Jason was a great tour guide. We had a problem with the intercom on the bus so I hope that was repaired. Thanks for making out trip even better than anticipated.
