The tour is only one end heavy. It's a long ride from NYC to Niagara Falls and things get interesting only when you reach the destination and only if you're staying on the Canadian side. There is very little guide/commentary while on the bus and what we got seemed lazy. Solo travellers need to know that once in Niagara you get time off to spend how you like dine and see the illuminated falls but the hotel is located a 30 mins walking distance from where they drop you off so you'd have to take a taxi reimbursed or walk. So this arrangement works much better for couples or large paries or solo travellers who make fast friends on the bus.
That was one of the highlights of our vacation in New York. The tour guider, Eddie, was excellent very helpful and kind. The driver was very professional and we are really enjoy our trip. Thank you very much for this experience folks it was amazing.
Fantastic!! Would highly recommend anyone taking this tour. Well organised, knowledgeable tour guide Eddie friendly obliging driver Mario A long time on the road but plenty of restroom stops and a comfortable coach with toilet. A lovely walk down hill at Watkins Glen on the first day broke up the drive up. The Super 8 hotel on the Canadian side was more than adequate for one night and a pleasant walk back after watching the fireworks over Niagara Falls. Taking time out to purchase souvenirs as there is not much time next day
A short stroll the next day then the Maid of the Mist out into the falls. So worth the trip. A stop for some shopping at an outlet on the way back rounded off the trip nicely and gave a chance to stretch legs.
Would most certainly say this was well worth it.
