Disappointed

That it is not clearly advertised that the tour leaves from the US side & not the Canadian. For locals it might have been obvious but for overseas visitors it was not. Therefore we missed the tour as we were waiting at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Canadian side & by the time we worked this out with the guide who was there 5 minutes late anyway @ the correct meeting point, there was just not sufficient time to cross the boarder on foot without making it a very late & tiring night. Plus it was suggested the view from the Canadian side which we could see from our hotel was better anyway. We were advised to cancel & request a refund, which we did but did not receive. As there were six of us, this was an expensive lesson we didn’t need.

Confused

Booked from Australia, didn’t realise tour was out of the US side of Falls waited outside Hard Rock Cafe Canadian side. Other tour booked on same website picked us up from hotel which is why there was confusion.

I showed up at the meeting point at the scheduled time and place, but the guide did not show up. I called the number given, but the number is nonexistent VERY BAD

I definately made the right choice

Don't believe the hype about "the Canadian side" begin better. This tour takes you up close to one of the most spectacular natural wonders in the word. It's amazing.

Great experience! Very beautiful!

Oh my goodness, it was such a fabulous experience! out of all the tours that my friend and I did in Niagara Falls… This one was my favorite. It was so beautiful to see everything litup at night and Marc was a fabulous tour guide who had so much information and was so much fun. Truly a great experience.!
