On our trip to Niagara Falls, we booked a five tour with Magnificent Tours at the Marriott Fallsview Hotel tour desk. We were assigned John Mckinnon as our tour guide and Robbie was our driver. Our 20 passenger bus was immaculate. From the moment we met John we knew it would be a wonderful day! He had a cooler of refreshments for us. We sat in the front of the bus. He was very knowledgeable about Canadian culture and history and answered any questions we had. Also..he had many shopping and restaurant tips for us! Our tour included the Hornblower on the Falls,Journey behind the Falls, visited Niagara Lake, Inniskillia Winery and The Whirlpool Rapids Observation Deck. The five hours went by quickly. Highly recommend this tour and most definitely John McKinnon!

My husband and I took a five hour tour. We went behind the falls, took the boat into the horseshoe of the Canadian falls. Went to a winery for a wine tasting ; visited the floral clock, the whirlpool and a drive through the town of Niagara Lake. John McKinnon, our guide wad very personable and informative. He was born and raised in Niagara Falls and had a lot of helpful information on other attractions and restaurants to visit time permitting

This was a great tour to experience Niagara Falls. Our tour guide, John McKinnon, was very knowledgeable. It was like going on a tour with an old friend. We had a lot of fun and got to learn about Niagara Falls, past and present. John really knew what to highlight. We would definitely recommend this tour.

We had such a great time! John McKinnon has to be the best tourist guide on Earth. He kept us entertained, and shared the most amazing stories with us. My 9 year old learned so much and didn’t even realize it!

The falls are out of this world. The activities and schedule are carefully chosen to keep you out of long lines, under the sun, etc. Just perfect.

John McKinnon was a great tour guide. Upbeat and fun! My husband and I took an impromptu trip to the Falls for our 33rd wedding anniversary. We would never have been able to see/do/experience all that we did in a day on our own. Journey Behind the Falls. Boat ride near the Falls. Whirlpool. Inniskillin wine tasting. Visit to Niagara-on-the-Lake country store. Butterfly Conservatory. Thank you, John, for sharing your knowledge and the history of the Falls. Highly recommend this tour!

This tour is well worth the money. It took us to Journey Behind the Falls, Skylon and Hornblower cruise. No waiting in lines! Sean was excellent driver and guide. Every stop went very smoothly. This is the way to see the highlights of Niagara Falls.

Thank you for writing a review! I am happy to hear you enjoyed our Niagara's Best Tour which highlights the top three attractions in Niagara Falls. Line-ups are not fun which is why we have made sure our guests never have to wait at the attractions. I will share your complimentary comments with Sean. :)

Tour was nice but over priced. You can do all of these attractions on your own for less. The tour guide Tony was exceptional, very informative and super friendly.

Thank you for your feedback! You are correct you can do the attractions on your own for less money. A guided tour isn't for everyone. What we offer with our guided tours is comfortable transportation (air conditioned bus), a knowledgeable /fun guide (great way to learn the history of Niagara and fun facts), worry free sightseeing (you don't need to worry about parking fees or directions) and the best part is the VIP access to the attractions which is an amazing perk when there are 2 hours lineups for the Hornblower Boat cruise and Journey Behind the Falls.

I was about to write review about this tour when I saw another review (https://www.tripadvisor.com.sg/ShowUserReviews-g154998-d4263205-r620796672-Magnificent_Tours_of_Niagara_Falls-Niagara_Falls_Ontario.html) that tells exactly what I wanted to say in my review.

It started when I was told by the hotel staff that I should take the tour instead of going to Niagara attractions by my own car as the weather is quite cold and I was the staff said the carpark is quite far from the attraction, where as if I take the tour, the tour bus will stop nearby the attractions. Believing in that, I approached Magnificent Tour located in the hotel lobby which I thought to be affiliated to the hotel, and look at the package. The ladies at the tour desk were helpful and explained about the available tour packages. They did a great job.

However the tour itself was quite disappointing. For the first 45 minutes the bus driver brought us around Niagara falls instead of to the first attraction which is Journey behind the fall. Furthermore the bus driver which is also the tour guide, speaks mumbling and hard to understand. He was also so impatient to kids and more concerning to the appointment schedule he seemingly to have made with the attraction.

Finished from the Journey Behind the fall, he brings us to the Niagara Whirlpool aero car. I thought that we'll be riding the aerocar. It turns out he just show it to us to kill time before he drove us to riding boat to the horseshoe fall.

What makes me feeling ripped off is that it turns out the carparks to the attractions are pretty near, just 1-3 minutes walk from carpark and you can reach the attraction. Another thing is that the tour cost me CAD396 for 2 adults and 1 kid (an average of CAD132 per person). If I bought directly from the Niagara attractions, it just cost me less than CAD50 per person for the exact same set of attractions that this tour provided. What a total ripped off!!!

BIGGEST SCAM IN NIAGARA FALLS. My wife and went to their booth which was located in our hotel lobby believing they were affiliated with the hotel and would provide helpful information on the sights. We knew we wanted to take the boat ride into the horseshoe falls (Hornblower Niagara cruise) and go behind the falls as well (Journey behind the falls) Instead of receiving information we received a hard sell tour package and was warned not to buy anything "off the streets" We paid $123.00 a piece for this special tour, the first 45 minutes of which was travelling from hotel to hotel picking up other suckers. We then spent another 45 minutes or so riding around while the driver rambled on about various obscure facts. Reminded me of Cosmo Kramer's "The real Peterson tour" from the old Seinfeld show. We did eventually wind up at the Hornblower cruise and the Journey behind the falls. But when we got to there we learned that the Canadian National Park commission offered a package that included these two attractions, plus a White Water walk and the Niagara Fury movie for only $65.00 a piece! Plus, this package included unlimited use of the WEGO bus system for 48 hours. There was also another package that offered entry to basically everything in the area for $110.00 a piece. DO NOT GET RIPPED OFF BY MAGNIFICENT TOURS!!
