On this tour to Niagara Falls from the Canadian side, we'll see the most famous waterfalls in North America during the day and a magical light show at night, as well as a variety of attractions.
Tour Highlights
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from the selected meeting point and from there, we'll start a 2-hour journey to Niagara Falls.
Depending on the season, on the way to the falls, we'll make one or two stops at: the town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, the famous Niagara Whirpool, a maple syrup tasting place, the Niagara Flower Clock or the Niagara Power Station. These stops will change from day to day.
Once we arrive at the most famous waterfalls in North America, we'll take a guided tour of Niagara Falls. We'll visit different viewpoints to admire the falls as we discover how much water flows down them and show you the best spots to take pictures.
During the tour, we'll see the main waterfalls on the Canadian side, including the Horseshoe Falls. We'll also see the Bridal Veil Falls on the American side from a distance—do you know where the name comes from? We'll find out!
We'll continue the tour by visiting Clifton Hill, the entertainment district on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. We'll show you the best places in this entertainment area to shop and refuel. You'll then have 4 hours of free time to enjoy the surroundings of the falls.
As night falls, you'll be able to watch the illumination of Niagara Falls at your leisure, as its different hues change through an incredible night-time spectacle. Between May 17th and October 14th, you can also enjoy a beautiful fireworks display, while from November 16th to January 5th, you'll attend the Winter Festival of Lights.
Finally, we'll reconvene at Clifton Hill for the return journey to the meeting point in Toronto, where we'll arrive around midnight, concluding this 10 to 11-hour tour.

Boat Ride + Journey Behind the Falls
If you opt for this tour, at the end of the waterfalls tour, you'll enjoy a 20-minute cruise of Niagara Falls on board the Hornblower boat. Please note that this tour usually operates between May 15 and December 1, but is sometimes unavailable due to adverse weather conditions.
In the event that the boat is not operational, you'll get entry to Skylon Tower instead, a famous observation tower with magnificent views of the falls.
In addition to the boat ride (or the tower, if cancelled or unavailable), you'll also enjoy the Journey Behind the Falls viewing platform. You'll discover what's behind Niagara Falls, accessing an amazing network of tunnels over 130 years old.
