Excellent trip. Our tour guide is friendly and knows stuff and manages the timing perfectly. The trip is more than you pay for. The bus is not too cozy not too comfy. That does not matter once you reach and experience the scenic beauty Niagara. Once in a life time experience.

It was a great tour I have just completed in last weekend. All the places we have visited are worth watching. Though it was cloudy on Niagara, I could not see the rainbow. May be next time it will be good for me. Otherwise We have certain time constraints in some places Where we love to spend more time, But I can understand to cover more of the places, that is required. Still I will suggest you to include Cave of the Winds also with this tour and to spend some more time in places like Niagara with lunch time excluded from it. And another point is that, Thundering show was not covered in this tour as mentioned in the details.
