What to expect

Embark on a magical winter journey to Niagara Falls, departing from Toronto in a comfortable coach. The excursion begins with a festive tasting at Maple Leaf Place, where you'll indulge in the sweet delights of maple syrup, fresh fudge, and artisan chocolate.

Next, you'll head to Table Rock, just steps from the majestic Horseshoe Falls. Here, if included in your option, you'll descend 125 feet into the tunnels of Journey Behind the Falls, immersed in the thunderous roar of cascading water. After this awe-inspiring experience, choose to spend free time by the Falls or opt for the Cafe Market Lunch to replenish your energy. As evening falls, your guide will lead you on an illumination tour through the Winter Festival of Lights at Dufferin Islands, showcasing landmark displays along the Niagara Parkway.

The final stop is Clifton Hill, offering extended free time to explore the dazzling lights and neon buzz. It's the ideal spot for a warm cup of cocoa and capturing memorable photos. On selected nights, the journey concludes with a spectacular fireworks display over the Falls, a truly unforgettable winter spectacle.
