Our tour guide was so nice and had a few little tips for our Discovery Pass adventures....HOWEVER you can do all the Discovery Pass things (Cave of the Winds, Maid of the Mist, Aquarium, Trolley, Movie and Discovery Gorge) just by buying the pass at the visitors center for only $46 per adult and $35 per child. We paid $75 per adult for this tour (plus a tip) and THE ONLY THING we got for the $30 extra fee was a 1 hour walking tour in the state park, that we could have done for FREE!!!! We didnāt really know we could buy passes once we got to Niagara,.... we thought we had to buy everything ahead of time and found this tour company online. DO NOT FALL FOR IT. We spent over $500 for our family when it could have only cost $240. VERY DISAPPOINTED

Hey Ashley! I am sorry you didn't find value in our tour. I'll explain a few of the things that came with the pass that were extra that you may not have realized. The most obvious as you mentioned is the tour itself but on top of that are a few extra things including your cave of the winds reservation being set up for you. Often people wait hours to get into the cave of the winds. I know personally $30 is easily a steal to skip waiting hours in line, then to get a tour to give you direction on top of that is also a huge plus. Also, by booking through TripAdvisor there is also a 15% service fee added on by TripAdvisor. For other customers looking to book, feel free to call us directly.
