This is a private day trip of up to eight hours from Toronto, with your own vehicle and a licensed, insured driver-guide. We pick you up anywhere in the GTA, including Toronto Pearson, and set the pace around your group.
The Falls are about an hour and a half away, so a typical day pairs the Horseshoe Falls viewpoints with a drive along the Niagara Parkway and a couple of hours in Niagara-on-the-Lake. You can add extras like the boat cruise, Journey Behind the Falls or a winery tasting.
