Reviews
The trip was great but some details could be improved to make it excellent: * Would be great to have more information on recommend items to bring (and not bring). For example ponchos are included in the Maid of the mist but we bought it in advance cause we thought it would be needed. * Would have been highly appreciated if you would have recommended to bring a picnik blanket to sit on to look at the fireworks and eat fast food + warm clothes to change to and have on the bus as the AC is cold. * Also a better information about the stops that it will be several stops along the way (both for breakfast and lunch). Would have helped for the planning. * Could have chosen a better stop than burger king and popeeyes (not that good food according to us but was ok) * Good AC and definitely enough time on the Niagara falls! I was a bit worried about the 14 hours bustrip but it went very smooth and felt much shorter. Stops for toilet breaks were good! Overall we are very happy! Thanks!
I liked how we knew all the itinerary and the guide explained all the steps of the tour. The guides were knowledgable, but we had difficulties understanding them because they speak at same time in two different languages, you should separate english and spanish speaking group or use earphone sets for one of the group. Would be better if we could stay longer to explore the area alone after the guided part. For me, going back to NY at 1:30pm was too early. I whished I knew that the dress code is more like early spring or early fall/autumn even though it was sunny in the shades and closer to the water was cold – so I would recommend to wear sandals because if you wear shoes they will get wet, wear pants and t-shirt not a dress or shorts if you are sensitive to cold. I would like that they informed us beforehand that we will get complimentary raincoats for the Maid of the mist part, because I bought raincoats for that part of the tour and didn’t even used them because we get it for free.
Had an absolutely amazing day trip to the Niagara Falls – I had previously seen the falls from the Canadian side last year but the New York side really blew my mind! Our guide was Richard and he was extremely knowledgeable and informative about the islands around Niagara Falls and also made it fun to learn several facts about the area which I didnât know beforehand – all in all great experience and would highly recommend and thank you to amazing drivers!
