Niagara Falls Day Tour from Toronto with Boat Cruise & Lunch
Our tour begins in Toronto, where you’ll embark on a scenic journey through the Golden Horseshoe region to the Niagara Peninsula.
Along the way, your guide will share fascinating stories and rich history about the region and Niagara Falls. Enjoy picturesque views of Lake Ontario, the Niagara Escarpment, and the Welland Canal.
Upon arrival in Niagara Falls, we’ll kick off the adventure with the iconic Hornblower boat cruise, where you'll get up close to the magnificent Canadian Horseshoe Falls. After the boat ride, enjoy a delicious lunch overlooking the Falls, offering stunning views as you dine. Following lunch, you'll have free time to explore the breathtaking sights, exciting attractions, and vibrant Clifton Hill area.
In the afternoon, we’ll depart Niagara Falls for a leisurely drive along the Niagara Parkway, passing highlights such as Queenston Heights, the Floral Clock, the Power Generating Station, Whirlpool Rapids, the Laura Secord Homestead, McFarland House, and Fort George.
Before arriving at Niagara-on-the-Lake, we’ll stop for an authentic Canadian maple syrup tasting experience. Here, you’ll learn about the maple syrup production process, sample a variety of grades and flavors, and discover why this sweet treat is a beloved Canadian tradition.
Our final stop is the quaint and historic town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, where you can wander through charming streets, explore boutique shops, or enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride.
