Small-Group Niagara Falls Day Tour from Toronto with Driver, Guide and Hornblower Cruise

Group size is the selling point of this Niagara Falls day tour from Toronto: an average of 8 guests and a maximum of 15, which leaves more time at each stop and shorter waits. The operator provides both a dedicated driver and a licensed guide, and the itinerary is built around photo stops. The centerpiece is the Hornblower Niagara Cruise, an intimate boat ride through the Niagara Great Gorge past the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls and into the Horseshoe Falls. At Table Rock Welcome Centre, the heart of Niagara Parks, the group has time for photos of the falls. The route follows the scenic Niagara Parkway, with views over the river, a stop at the Floral Clock, whose design uses up to 16,000 bedding plants and changes twice a year, and the Whirlpool Rapids, and ends in Niagara-on-the-Lake. There the group strolls the shops, boutiques and cafes before returning to Toronto, with ice cream at Cows or ice wine at Niagara Wine Country Vintners as ideas. Pickup is at the Front Street entrance of the Fairmont Royal York, not the valet parking entrance.
