Best experience ever!
Dale was an excellent tour guide and made the tour fun and informative. He kept the group together and on time in a respectful manner. Happy to have met him!
Great trip
We completely enjoyed ourselves. Angel was an excellent tour guide and driver. We saw the falls from many angles and got completely wet.
An excellent, comprehensive tour of Niagara Falls
Excellent & very comprehensive tour. They include all of the highlights plus, our tour guide Eduardo, was knowledgeable, informative & very helpful. Could not recommend this tour more highly if you want to see ALL of Niagara Falls
Good feedback
We just returned from a day trip to Niagara Falls with Nick, the amazing guide. It was an enjoyable, experiential, educational, funny, and truly fun tour. I recommend it !and especially recommend asking for Nick.
A++++
Patty was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this tour and make sure to ask for Patty.
We got to see the Niagara Falls from many different spots.
I recommend this tour, as you have to see the waterfall from both sides. The guide also knows all the best spots to view the falls. Nancy is a super guide.
Eduardo was great!
The tour was wonderful and Eduardo was an excellent guide. From the time he picked us up from our hotel until he dropped us back off it was an amazing adventure. We learned so many great facts about the area. It was great having all the main attractions in one all day tour. Thoroughly exhausted and delighted at the end of the day. Thank you.
Fantastic day at Niagara Falls
Great day at Niagara Falls. We did the all day tour, it was off season so no boating but what a fantastic day! We toured on both the American side, and the Canadian side. Eduardo was our tour guide and he knocked it out of the park. He was informative, set expectations, extremely knowledgeable of the area and left us enough down time to feel like we weren’t rushed from place to place. The sites chosen by Over The Falls were excellent. Worth every penny and more.
Memorable trip to Niagara
We came as a family of three to visit Niagara Falls and it couldn’t have been more memorable. Our guide Nancy was very kind and courteous and we were shown across a lot of scenic views of American and Canadian falls which was spellbounding. The whole tour was very enjoying as it was just 3 hours long and we also had a glimpse of Canada. Will definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
NF tour experience
Eduardo was our tour guide and it was wonderful!!! He was very informative and allowed everyone to take their time for pictures and the sight seeing. We will definitely be back soon!
