Superb tour! Best way to experience the falls! - What a wonderful experience! Our guide had previously been an elementary school teacher so he made all the history fun, easily digestible, and very engaging! When you get on the boat, get drenched, experience the power of the falls fully, it was an INCREDIBLE experience! “Kiss the mist as they say!”

A must do on the Canadian side of the Falls. - Went with My family while we were in Canada (First time outside the United States) . Sarah, Our guide was super friendly, and knowledgeable! The Tunnels under the falls were super cool. There were a few people in our tour group all of them families from the United States.

Cold and quick but fun! - Booked a lovely tour this past weekend for my bf and I. Originally our tour was supposed to be done the day before but due to inclement weather it was postponed to the next day. Our tour guide Brayden was amazing! A true Canadian, really enthusiastic and super friendly! He gave us a brief history of the Niagara Falls as well as the daredevils! He was super helpful and definitely made the time go by fast! Would recommend Walks and have him as a tour guide.

Recommendation for sure - I had Tim as a tour guide which added a big plus to my experience. He knows his stuff and is excited, answers questions and mix in a good amount of humor.
Amazing experience. Clear instructions where to meet -> people with yellow jackets waited there.
I went there on December 15th but it was awesome for the boat. No lines, no stress and a bunch of great photos etc. WOW! I would definitely book it again.
The behind the falls experience was also great!
U can bring a backpack (small/medium).
Everything is okay walkable in winter but make sure u bring real shoes who are water proof and warm + waterproof pants because the poncho only covers so much.
Ps.: someone left a negative comment that got me suspicious about them still running because they said “…it got canceled because of the ice without notice…” -> in my understanding now, that was once in a decade where they started later operating after winter break (spring) because the ice still came down the falls which meant they had to indeed cancel but just for your own safety. Because Ice is not controllable coming back up (hitting a boat worst case).

Niagara Falls - Great tour, knowledgeable tour guide. It would be nice to have a little more detail about the tunnels behind the falls and how and why they engineered that.

“A Must-Do Niagara Falls Tour with Gordy!” - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Amazing Experience with Gordy!
My son and I had an incredible time on our Niagara Falls tour with Gordy! He was fun, extremely knowledgeable, and so accommodating to everyone’s needs in the group. In just three hours, we got to see amazing sights and learned so much Niagara history we never knew before.
Gordy made the whole experience smooth, enjoyable, and unforgettable. My son and I truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend booking with him—you won’t regret it!

Family vacation on the Maid of the Mist - It was a fantastic experience and our guide John M was the best. Combination of education and entertainment and leaving us curious to want to find out more. The entire day was full of great information and great experiences both on and off the boat.

The Falls in November - Was a great, easy walk tour with great views! Went in November so it was a bit cold but the team made an effort to shelter us when they could! Very helpful! Our tour guide Melanie was so great with our little one, kept her active in the tour and distracted from the cold, very appreciative of that!
