Experience the wonder of Niagara Falls on an unforgettable afternoon and evening tour from Toronto. See the Falls in daylight, feel their power up close, and watch them transform under the dazzling nighttime illuminations.
Travel aboard a comfortable, climate-controlled coach with a local guide who shares the fascinating history, geology, and stories behind Niagara Falls and the surrounding region.
Journey along the scenic Niagara Parkway, often called one of the world's most beautiful drives, with views of the Niagara River and the famous Whirlpool Rapids before arriving at Table Rock Welcome Centre. Stand just steps from the edge of the mighty Horseshoe Falls and experience the incredible power, mist, and roar from one of the closest public viewpoints.
Enjoy free time to explore Niagara Falls at your own pace. Visit Clifton Hill, browse local shops, stroll along the Falls, or simply take in the breathtaking scenery before the evening illuminations begin.
Customize your experience with one of several memorable upgrade options. From approximately May through October, select the seasonal Niagara City Cruises boat ride and sail deep into the mist for an exhilarating close-up view of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. From approximately November through April, when the boat is not operating, select Journey Behind the Falls and descend beneath Table Rock to explore tunnels and observation portals located beside and behind the powerful Horseshoe Falls. Attraction schedules are seasonal and subject to weather and operational conditions.
Alternatively, choose a three-course dinner at Queen Victoria Place overlooking Niagara Falls. The dinner experience includes exclusive access to the Illumination Tower, where you can enjoy extraordinary panoramic views of the Falls as they glow after dark from a vantage point rarely experienced by visitors.
As darkness falls, watch Niagara Falls come alive with vibrant colours during the nightly illumination. On selected summer evenings, you'll also witness Niagara Falls' spectacular fireworks display above the illuminated Falls. During the winter season, enjoy the magical Winter Festival of Lights, featuring millions of dazzling lights throughout Niagara Parks.
After an unforgettable afternoon and evening discovering one of the world's greatest natural wonders, relax on the comfortable journey back to Toronto.
