Excellent Experience - Amar went above and beyond to make this a wonderful experience for us. He arrived on time. He had everything planned out with the exception of allowing us to choose how we wanted to end the day. He provided detailed information about the history of Niagara Falls and the area in Toronto where we stayed. We would have not had the same experience if we visited on our own.

Complete Niagara Falls Tour in a Day from Toronto - This was a great way to experience all the falls offer - from behind the falls, to riding into the thunderous storm of the falls (tip - wear rain gear or get wet, the ponchos protect little!), to the top of Skylon Tower, plus other sites. Plenty of time at each stop and for lunch. Going with a small group was great - we had very nice travel companions in our van. Not having to drive ourselves from Toronto and back - priceless!

Brilliant Trip! - Daniel our tour guide was amazing! Very knowledge, polite and funny. The whole trip was planned extremely well, skipping the queues for the attractions and very well timed. The duration of the excursion was spot on and it was an added bonus that the minivan had A/C. Definitely worth the extra bit of money!
