Explore Niagara Falls your way on a stress-free day trip from Toronto, which also includes wine tasting at a local winery. Explore the falls at your own pace during three hours of free time, and upgrade to include a cruise up the Niagara River into the basin of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls for extra close-up views.

Your Niagara Falls tour picks you up at Strathcona Hotel’s main entrance. Arrive about ten minutes before your tour time, so you can check in and not miss your ride.

Once you board the climate-controlled vehicle, get ready for a fun-filled day. Your first stop is at the historical town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, where you can explore with your guide leading the way for about an hour. See Living Water Wayside Chapel and the Floral Clock, and then stop for wine tasting at a winery estate in the area. Try a special dessert wine that’s popular among the locals.

Afterward, get back in your vehicle for the ride to Niagara Falls. Skip the super-long entrance lines at the beginning, and spend about three hours on your own. Move at your own pace, and plan what you’d like to do at the falls.

If you’ve upgraded to include the cruise, this is when you can take the cruise on the Niagara River.

Your Niagara Falls tour ends with a drop-off back in Toronto.
