Overview

Quotes Logo Experience the Best of Niagara Falls Canada with a small group tour that takes people to the most exciting places! This tour is perfect for anyone who wants to see Niagara Falls up close and learn about its history.

First, the tour will go up the Skylon Tower in a glass elevator. At the top, which is 520 feet in the air, people can see all three Niagara Falls, the Niagara River, and the land around it. Next, the tour goes down 125 feet into tunnels at Journey Behind the Falls. Here, people can hear and feel the power of the water!

Then, if the weather is good (April to November), the tour takes a boat ride on the Niagara City Cruises Voyage To The Falls. The boat goes around the Niagara gorge, gets very close to the Falls, and lets people feel the mist. If it is not boat season, the tour visits the Greg Frewin Theatre and Butterfly Conservatory instead. Lastly, the tour guide drives everyone around the city, pointing out places like Dufferin Islands, the International Control Dam, the Old Scow, Whirlpool Rapids, and the Floral Clock. This tour includes tickets to Journey Behind the Falls and Skylon Tower, a friendly guide, hotel pickup and drop-off in downtown Niagara Falls, a ride in a minivan, and a boat tour ticket (when open). Food, drinks, tips, and parking are not included. Quotes Logo
