Questions About This Tour

What time does the best value tour start and finish?

Pickups run from about 7:45 AM downtown through 9:15 AM in Mississauga, and you’re usually back in Toronto between 5:30 and 6:30 PM. Your exact point and time arrive by email right after booking.

What does the $125 cover, and what costs extra?

The price includes round-trip air-conditioned travel, your driver-guide, gratuities, and the Parkway, Whirlpool, Floral Clock and Niagara-on-the-Lake stops. The boat ride, Journey Behind the Falls, Skylon, helicopter, wine tasting and buffet lunch are optional add-ons — you pay only for what you pick.

Will I see the American side of the Falls?

You’ll view the American Falls from the Canadian side, which is genuinely the better vantage point — the full face of both waterfalls is only visible from where you’ll be standing.

Is this tour good for students and groups on a budget?

It’s built precisely for that: the complete Niagara circuit at the lowest price we offer, with gratuities already covered so the number you see is the number you pay.
