2-Day Niagara Falls Tour from New York/New Jersey

I booked this tour last minute and I enjoyed the tour. Ting Ting was being knowledgeable and friendly while guiding us around. Time arranged was just nice. You get to see everything :) and i just booked another tour with TakeTours again!

I took 2-days Niagara tour on 27th & 28th Oct 2018. Tour was very well arranged and our guide was Rachel. Rachel managed the trip with large excellently in-spite of having a large group. She is knowledgeable, friendly & professional guide, shared a good information about the attractions that we visited. Our driver was also very good, smooth and safe drive. The Hotel Wyndham where we stayed was great too. Overall had a fantastic experience. I would highly recommend this tour to all.

My parents took the tour to Niagara Falls last weekend and they had so much fun. Guide Rachel was sweet and responsible. It was a cost effective package and we will definitely try TakeTours packages again for our other tours.

Grace was great and very helpful we had a good time in the trip.

This was our first tour with TakeTours from New York to Niagara Falls 2 days one night, it was well arranged tour, our guide Miss Zoey Qu was too good, she managed the trip very well, shared a good amount of information of all the places we visited like Corning museum of glass ,watkins glen state park , old fort museum and all other related information. The place where we stayed was also very nice WYNDHAM hotel. I would suggest to take the tour if planning for 2 day tour.

5 star tour with on of the best tour guide i.e. Benjamin Wu. We had a good time. All in all 5 stars. We will love to come back.

I take 2 days Niagara falls tour on 10.13. The experience was very good, everything was planned very good, the tour guide Benjamin Wu, was awesome.

Hi. This is Mahesh. take tours people are very friendly . I like to thank "Ting" she did a great job. I will give 5 stars to her.

The tour was amazing, they give us a really good time in every place to walk around and enjoy. You can choose between waiting for the guide or doing alone and be at the bus when they choose a time to leave the place. I recommend this tour so much and I will book others in the future.

I was a solo traveler. My English was not that good. But Cecilia the tour guide made sure I understand everything, she used the google translator to help me out. That was so nice . thank you you

the tour was enjoyable. we are lucky to meet Cecilia

my parents only speak in Chinese. thanks for providing a tour guide in Cantonese. big thank to Cecilia

It was Good

Overall I had a fantastic experience. I went on the Niagara Falls 2 days tour from Oct 1st to Oct 2nd 2018. Our tour guide was Kiko Li....honestly she made the whole experience so enjoyable. A very knowledgeable and professional guide. Kiko made everyone feel so comfortable. At the same time, our bus driver Frank was fantastic and knew his way around. We got to Niagara Falls on time....and arrived safely back the following night. I would highly recommend choosing Kiko's group for 2 days Niagara Falls.

Overall the tour was nice and the guide was nice as well! i will use take tour again.

The tours are really well planned and I highly recommend this trip. Our guide Daisy Zhang was so sweet and she has gone above and beyond to ensure the comfort and safety of everybody in the bus. We could visibly see the effort she was putting to ensure the trip was smooth, she is very hard working and genuinely cares about people and very friendly to talk with. I would take the trip again and prefer daisy as our guide. Thank you take tours for a wonderful experience.

We joined the tour and we end up really love it ! We went to a lot of places during the two days trip , the night view of niagara fall is amazing !! We love our tour guide Ruby and our driver , the tour guide looks tiny but she is able to do all the things so smoothly and she speaks very good English . The driver is on time and always has a smile on his face , we call him Mr Money ! :) highly recommend this trip !

I have been on 5 tours with this company through the years and i must say that our tour guide suki wang was the best ever and they have all been good. She was lnowledgeable, organized, punctual, efficient and friendly. The itinerary was superb and we had The perfect amount of time. I had some doubt as to the necessity of the indepth tour but i was thrilled i went on it because the views were unparalleled to a trip i took which didnt offer this option in the past Thus was a truly phenomenal tour. Thank you.

The tour was superb. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the maid of the mist tour which was a true attraction. Will recommend this tour.

Was the happy trip. Ting Ting, she is so kind and has the well manage. In the time schedule, there was pretty much covered all valuable experience. Recommended :)

Niagara Falls 2-day's tour we took was good.Our guide was "Tim" who was very helpful and co-operative.He conducted entire itinerary very well.Only concern was with Bus which was dusty.

I took this trip on September5 to September6, 2018. The guide tour is Kiko Li. I very appreciated and glad to have her as a guide of my trip. She's taken care of my family nicely, indeed. Moreover, she helped us a lot. I really want to say thank you to her. She is knowledgeable and patient. I would recommend my friend to choose this trip, especially having Kiko Li as a guide is the best! Those two day was wonderful!

It was my best trip with a best price and before that the tour guide jayant was the best person and friendly also humble and help me alot in the whole tour from best olaces to take pictures to eat to buy souvenirs and finally he is the best

Thank you

I recommend this tour since there are very good attractions and easy to see the Niagara Fall. - Tour Guide: our guide was Sean and he was quite good. Some people late from the stop-overs so he was so upset for the other people. He was nice overall. -Accommodation: the hotel was quite nice(3 stars) and since there is very few time to stay that hotel, you don't need to stay 5 stars hotel. I think it was reasonable. But it was located quite far from the Niagara(about 30min in car) and I heard the hotel is random. -Transportation: It was good. but when i checked there is no seatbelts, I was shocked.....also, there is no charger. So, you MUST take the supplementary battery. The driver was also nice and you can drop off every 2.30 hours for restroom which was quite good. -Itinerary: this is very important thing. If your passport allow to go to Canada without visa, you must skip the Indepth-tour for the 2nd day and go to the Canada side(Horseshoe Fall). It is very beautiful both in night and days and there are a lot of places you can eat or drinks. In American side, you can only enjoy the American Fall and Bridal Veil Fall but the Horseshoe Fall was much bigger and nice. I recommend only two options: Watkins Glen Park(1st day) and Mist of the Maid(2nd day). Overally, it was cost-effective tour for Niagara Falls.

The tour was well organised and the tour guide Benjamin Wu was very friendly . He followed the time schedule very well and covered all the tourist attractions he explained everything very clearly . We enjoyed the trip under his guidance

The tour guide name 'Emma Jia' was excellent and take care of all tourist during the tour. Driver was good too. Only concern about the tour is they give very limited time to see all attraction. Rest are all good.

Very nice experience. Our guide Nancy was very helpful and nice. Just a note: When you take your kid below 2 years, do not mention while booking. If you mention, you will need to pay service charge for the baby also. Event though the seat is not used

An amazing trip. Our first trip in USA as we just moved here. Zack Wang, our tour guide was really good in keeping us all on the heels and it was bcs of him and his xo-ordination that we were able to cover all the attractions on time. A big thanks to him. He explained about the attractions very well.

This was really a wonderful and memorable trip. Our tour guide was Zack Wang and we want to thank him for his timeliness,promotness in ensuring we had a great trip to Niagara.His time management skills are wonderful and only because of this we were able to cover the entire iteniary well. A big thank you to him for managing all this and more really well.

Awesome trip!Our tour guide was Shelly Liu,she is very friendly,helpful!Beautiful places to create amazing memories!Alina M

This trip was Awesome.The tour guide and bus driver were very friendly and helpful. The falls were Amazing, all the places we visited were Amazing.

I recommend this tour I had enjoying with my boyfriend on The month of July the guide Yaru Zom all credits for her Thank you very much for everything

I recommend this tour Rachel Xu was the best guide I ever had I loved all about the tour it was excellent hotel very clean The tour guide was very respectful and kind Excellent tour its very affordable

This trip is worth it. We were able to visit a lot of places in 2 days. The time alloted for every attraction is enough to cover everything. The accommodation was nice too. Ting Ting was really nice, friendly and accommodating. I will definitely recommend this trip to anyone!

Mr. Benjamin was not only knowledgeable but patient and kind. His humor and direction made this trip a great success for me. And he was even kind enough to sing Happy birthday to my friend.

Tour guide Ting Ting Lin planned tour very well and informative. With a big smile she handled all situations. Highly recommend this tour.

I have visited Niagara falls for the first time with my family. We preferred this tour and we are happy with our decision. Ting Ting was our tour guide and Bobby was our bus driver. Ting Ting is good team leader ,she ensures passengers arrive on time,interacts with them,provides details of the destination,ensures customer safety. Bobby does not drive rashly.Happy with the service received from Ting Ting and Bobby. Hotel Radison was good and clean. Locations visited in this tour were really beautiful and we enjoyed this trip. Only suggestion to TakeTours team is Roadrunner bus was comfortable but on second day of tour our bus was changed as it was going to Newport. The second bus was not comfortable.

Great tour to visit Niagara Falls and other places near to the city. The guide and the bus driver were very friendly people that helped us to visit as many places as we could. The only problem we had was that the bus got stuck for some time the first day so reduced the time the time that we had to visit the Corning Museum of Glass but after that, I can say it was an amazing trip. 100% recommended.

we felt a bitt rush with kids and time given for lunch/dinner. Could have little more time at some locations but it was fair considering the tour was only 2 days and covered a few things on the way. Tour Guid Yaru Zao was friendly and helpful!

This Tour really awesome! I love our tour guide! Ruby Jia! She is so smart, sweet, and friendly. Niagara falls is amazing and gorgeous (Maid of the Mist is the best attraction). But the journey is kind of long.

Tour guide: Yaru was great! She provided a lot of interesting information and kept us on track. The tour: it is worth every penny. I would recommend that you pay for all excursions. Whatever you do, do not skip Maid of the Mist, it's a once in a lifetime experience. Watkins Glen State Park was also a wonderful little adventure. This tour has A LOT of walking, especially for an elderly person or small children. We were not aware of this so I recommend that you prepare by wearing comfortable shoes and clothes - be prepared to walk! Tour departure point: Important! I don't know if the bus route is the same each trip but we thought that the main departure point for the bus was Chinatown. Since we are from north Jersey, we decided to go to Chinatown to get on the tour bus. But the main departure location was actually Jersey City. So from Chinatown, we had to take a shuttle to Jersey City to get on the main tour bus. Had we known that the main departure point was Jersey City, we would have gone straight there and saved 2 hours. I recommend checking before you go so that you take the easiest route to get to the tour bus. One final note: The main eating spot at Niagara Falls is an overpriced food court with various options that tasted mediocre at best. However nearby are other restaurants (Hard Rock Cafe, an Indian restaurant etc.). If time permits I recommend going to Hard Rock, it was very good!

It was an excellent tour all credits to our super helpful and friendly guide Kaylie. Our driver, Mariol was good as well and made regular stops to accommodate everyone's washroom breaks. I would recommend not spending too much time eating at Corning Glass; rather visiting the museum as it was fantastic! The hotel room was fantastic as well and was worth more than the actual trip cost. All in all, an amazing trip to Niagara for our family and wonderful memories.

I booked the tour for my in-laws and heard the tour was a decent one and the only complaint is the stay was far away from the falls and they couldn't stay late in the falls. Otherwise its a decent one for the dollars paid.

I have taken this tour on Aug 1st for 2 day. It is one of the best places to visit. Zack Wang was our tour guide. He showed us all the places and guided us at each spot. Awesome guide. Enjoyed to the full. The only thing which was not worth is the Corning glass museum (only for hardcore glass enthusiasts) . Since it is a 2-day tour the time at each location was less.

I recommend this tour, Yaru was the best guide we ever had. She was very helpful, and told many information. The hotel was good and clean, the program was well organized. We loved it. Susan and Regina from Hungary xx

The tour is very faboulos. And the tour guide Benjamin Wu is very friendly and cordial. Y recommend this trip.

We enjoyed the trip! The guide was very friendly. Hotel was great for the price. Itinerary was interesting. Recommend this tour!

I join 7.23 2 day niagara fall tour. This trip is excellent. And our guide(Benjamin) is kind and good speaker. He explained well, especially 'in depth tour; Niagara fall

I would recommend this 2 days trip from New York/ New Jersey to Niagra falls. Our tour guides Nancy Qiu and Daisy Zhang were very nice! They always had a smiling face and was very friendly to all of us. The trip started and ended at the scheduled time and the trip was very well organised. We started from New York and first visited the Corning Glass museum and then went to the Watkins Glen state park. Watkins Glen state park was very beautiful! They made sufficient stops in the rest areas in between. At the evening we reached Niagra falls and saw the IMAX movie and then the illumination on the falls and fireworks. Next day was the Maid of mist boating which was amazing!! After lunch, we headed back to New York. The tour is well organised. Highly recommended :)

Our guide Yaru was very helpful and understanding when something was asked and requested. She got us everywhere early and we had plenty of time to view each of the attractions. Also she made the tour interesting with quiz and lot of background information. Highly recommend her as the tour guide. Five star!!!

I was so skeptical to begin with as this was my first bus tour. But Shelly Liu, our guide was amazing. She had excellent knowledge of all attractions as well as local areas. She made sure that everyone on the bus was comfortable yet accounted for. She has very good management skills and leading large groups. I may take another tour just because of her. Accommodation was good and in walking distance to falls. Few things I would like the tour operators to change is: If a party is not going to an attraction, they should not be asked to wake up and check out early nor should they be asked to report at that attraction. They should be given a time and meeting point when and where they should come back and report.

Me and my family went and enjoyed this Niagara Falls tour very much, many thanks to Judy, the best tour guide ever! she speaks very good English and also very smart and informative, shared lots of information about all the places we went with good sense of humor and always smiling, she stays around in case we need any help and take photo for families. We stayed in Wyndham Garden hotel right next to Niagara falls at night, perfect itinerary and attractions, don't skip anyone of them! whole tour was very well organized by Judy, Niagara falls is amazing! wish we could stay longer next time. Everything 5 stars! Recommend to all, please do not hesitate to book this trip!

I am glad I chose this tour package. The selection of attractions is perfect, and fits decently into the time allotted. Rachel Chen and Kiko Li are both excellent tour guides with an amazing attitude, pleasant style and calm approach to tour guest queries, requests and even problems! I had a perfect break from work with this tour, and the best way I could tell this was from the relaxed smiles on my selfies taken at amazing waterfalls along the Watkins Glenn Gorge trail. Yes, take the attractions package once you're on board with Rachel and Kiko, you'll be the happier for it.

Great experience. Great guide!! Will definitely take another tour.

I love this tour package; it was excellent. The guide Mr Zack was very cooperative, he guided us very effectively. He is very humorous. Everyone in our bus likes him. The package covered all of the beautiful places in the Niagra. I recommend anyone can take this package and enjoy the scenic view in Niagra.

Ivy and Jerome were wonderful. My wife , 9 year old daughter as well as myself had a great time. Ivy was very professional and well spoken, she spoke first in English then Mandarin. The corning tour as we'll as Watkins glen alone was worth the trip. Ivy was very clear when we needed to be back at the bus and we were given enough time for everything, we took the in depth tour and enjoyed it very much. The Maid of the Mist was Awsome. We stayed at the Best Western which was clean and the double beds were great for the family, the free breakfast of Waffles , cereal , fruit, sausage , eggs & toast were perfect. Thank You to both IVY and JEROME FOR A GREAT TRIP

The whole 2 day tours were amazing. We got to see many great sightseeings placing along our trip to Niagara fall. Mathew is an awesome , helpful, and friendly tour guide that you can count on. Mr. Leo, a bus driver, provided us a smooth and safe transport from NYC to niagara. He also supported us to get out from the bus safely. Thanks to Mathew and Mr. Leo. Each tour time is very precise and the price is reasonable. We really enjoy this wonderful trip, and highly recommends. There is a recommendation we would like to make. If the hotel includes breakfast this would be great.

Mathew is very good tour guide.. Provided more details on the places.. Very prompt on responding

My husband and I decided to go on a tour for the first time. We've never been to a tour before so we were little worried about lack of free time. However, the tour itself was very organized and was worry-free travel! We met with Davina on the day of travel. She was very sweet and kind. I loved that she handled all the details. Only job we were given is to is arrive at your departure point on time. Only thing they should improve is the bus. The bus was old with broken bathroom. The leg room was very tight as well. But can't complain for the price we paid!

Great service. It was really memorable trip and had lots of fun. The driver was professional. Everything was awesome. Hospitality and management of tour manager (KAYLIE and EMMA) was perfect. They were friendly and helpful. I was really impressed. Keep it up this service.

Awesome 2 Day trip enjoyed a lot with Vincent Wang and Zack Wong. Both of themwere very cooperativ. Ididn't realize that that I wasalone on the trip. Worth it trip. Thanks Again Vincent and Zack

Awesome 2 Day trip enjoyed a lot with Vincent Wang and Zack Wong. Both of them were very cooperative. I didn't realize that that I was alone on the trip. Worth it trip. Thanks Again Vincent and Zack

I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone I know!! This was my first time to Niagara and with Take Tours since my brother is visiting US for only a couple of weeks. This trip was perfect to experience lot of great attractions in a short time. Our tour guide Ting Lin and driver were amazing!! Ting was quite lively (always had a smile on her face) and made sincere efforts to explain the information behind each attraction so that they made sense. I applaud her time management because she always made sure that we were on track (in spite of some people being late sometimes) so that we could enjoy major time at the attractions (and not in lines!!) Just a recommendation to people who take this tour - Since it is a GROUP tour, please be mindful of respecting everyone's time. First day: Corning Museum and Watkins Glen State Park were absolutely marvelous and breathtaking!! Must visit!! Then, we went to Niagara Falls in the evening for the night view. Since the sunsets are late in the summer (no night view), we enjoyed dinner followed by a relaxed beautiful view of Falls after all the hiking on the Gorge Trail earlier! Next morning, the highlight was of course the Maid of the Mist apart from the Whirlpool and Old Niagara Fort!! It was definitely worth traveling 6-7 hours to witness and experience this nature's wonder from quite near!! :) After that, we had lunch followed by the trip back. I applaud Tinga's quick-wittiness on the way back for the rest-stop. When she realized that there might be 6-7 buses at the regular serving area, she adapted quickly by notifying our driver Steven in advance to stop at a different one. Just few tips - Carry CASH for tips to driver/tour guide, attractions and the food court at Niagara. They accept only CASH there. Carry FOOD/SNACKS since there's not really a lot of time during the bus journey to make food stops. Definitely got my money's worth on this trip!! :)

The tour was really interesting and well organized and marvelous as well,We traveled (June 1-2) with Nancy Qiu & Emma Jia: professional, precise, kind, passionate and with a great attitude.I will recommend this to all of my friends and relatives as well. Obviously i will try to make another tour to another destination with Nancy Qiu and Emma Jia, Really i loved this tour

What impressed me was the hotel, great and clean. It was the lowest price but the best trip. The tour guide Rachel Shu is very friendly and professional. I look forward to booking another tour in the future.

Well,our 2 days Niagra falls tours was more than expected.We meet our tour guides Summer Zhang and Daisy Zhang at 6:40 am in flushing,we meet them and they gave us seat numbers and we waited for other people to com and moved from their at 7:am.The timing is great after two hour long drive we got short break for refreshment.We reached Corning Museum of Glass and had lunch over there.The food was good but I recommend to take your won snacks its worth it .The art place was beautiful experience.,after that we went to Walkin glens ,I enjoyed the whole journey at Walkin,it was downhill and its also started raining such a beautiful experience.And then we went to see the Imax but me and wife didn't see the movie but we enjoyed the Niagara view ,was mesmerizing moment.T hen we reached hotel around 10pm ,hotel was nice.Then next day we had a morning breakfast ,I recommend you the hotel bf and it was worth it.Then finally we went to the Maid of MIst,it was a life time experience,over all tours was memorable.And the last moment in the bus we had quick quiz and the operators has a prize so guys listen to them very carefully and make sure you be the winner.Lastly,me and my wife had a wonderful time and I recommend you this tour and also would like to Thank our tour guide summer & daisy.

It was a great enjoyable tour with our two very helpful tour guide Yaro and Nancy.They were really responsible person with a positive attitude and smiling face. The journey was comfortable .Accommodation and the whole trip planning was really appreciable.

Trip was good.Little hectic with small baby but we visited all the places .Enough time was given by tour guides. For family it is highly recommended

It was an organised tour. We had a good time with a very knowledgeable and helpful guide, Rachel Xu. Would definitely return back for a tour again.

The bus is rather old and dirty. But the other services are good.

A little rushed but overall a good experience on the tour. It is genuinely value for money. The TakeTours team is a very good one to interact with throughout, from inquiry to the tour execution.

The tour is good for the money, but the customer service, the timeline and cash handling of the tour is really bad.if you call the 1800 # for "Booked Tours"- no one picks up. the timeline is not provided till you are on the bus. and there are no receipts for the cash that you pay for the attraction entries. so if the tour guide says you haven't paid there is no proof. Also, the attraction charges are more than the actual charges or the group rates the tours should be getting. but if you dont mind any of these issues, its a great tour.

I loved this tour, and the tour guide Cayden really made it enjoyable. At first, I was not really interested in Corning Glass Museum, which was before Niagara itself. But I was glad I still paid for that option, as the glass displays were really impressive, and there was actually not enough time to see all. Watkins Glen was another unique experience with nature, although we should have outfitted ourselves better for a hike with high chance of getting wet (white shoes a bad idea, go for something more rugged). Food at Corning was also really good. Unfortunately when we got to Niagara, the night illumination show started late, so we didn't get to see it as Cayden needed to already check us in at the hotel, which was a little further out of town but nice (Radisson Hotel). The following day, went to Whirlpool and Old Fort Niagara, which were really not that special so you could choose to skip those. We skipped the iMax movie so can't comment on that. My beef was that the breakfast options at Fort Niagara were limited, and there was none in the hotel itself, so food during the 2nd day was not the nicest. Maid of the Mist was the absolute highlight and not to be missed - the feeling of that close encounter with a force of nature is quite the experience. Again, lunch choices at Niagara itself are expensive but so-so, which aren't the fault of the tour operator, but then you can't have everything.

The tour is really interesting and well organized. We travelled (June 1-2) with Ting Lin & Emma Jia: professional, precise, kind, passionate and with a great attitude. You can tell they love what they do. They picked us up in the morning in Chinatown area quite easy to reach. All the attractions are optional and extra so calculate an addictional 70$ more or less. The first stop was at the glass museum. Unfortunately we skipped Watkins glen (10$) because of heavy rain and we directly reached our destination at the niagara falls, in the evening around dinner time. I would suggest to bring your own food but it also possible to buy some stuff on the way. The day after we join the morning tour (25$)really interesting, and mist of all the amazing Maid of the Mist (20$). we had lunch there at the foodcourt and then we got back to NYC with 1 stop every2 or3hours. Don't miss it

Enjoyable tour for a good price. More or less on schedule and covered all the places listed. Driving was good (though the bus seems to be old, no working microphone to announce programmes. guide had to repeat everything two times with the bus noise in the background)

i recommend this tour

The trip was good. Our tour guide Caroline Zheng has good knowledge on the history of niagara.

Our guide was really nice and helpful. The trip was well organized, but the hotel was not what I expected.Niagara Falls was so magnificent. I think you must visit it at least one time in your life. Looking forward to visit again.

Really enjoyed it was nice tour. Your customer care take care of our request to them.

Traveling with family for 2 days to niagara falls. It is such a great tour! Tour guide Judy Zhang is so sweet and nice, always sharing informations during the tour and very amicable, everything is perfect organized as well. Watkins glen is a surprise, maid of the mist is a must visit, the best experience ever!!Also corning glass museum, the glass show is amazing! Highly recommend!!

The hotel has some problems in 1st day,our tour guide Rachel Xu helped my family to solve ou all the problems.The trip was full of fun, it's nice to be with Rachel Xu.

The trip would be perfect if the hotel were nearby the waterfall. Anyway we still enjoyed the tour. Tour guide Rachel Xu and driver Mr Lin did a good job.

The tour guide Rachel Xu was very thoughtful even prepared a spray for Mosquito! She was a good hard worker, making the trip a lot of fun.

Our tour guide Davina has ensured that all attractions get covered as per schedule. Itinerary require little modification to allot extra time for Corning Glass Museum.

We traveled to Niagara falls with Rachael Xu. It was really nice tour.. thanks for all her guidance, also the bus driver Mr.lin was very cool.

My friend and I had an amazing time at the Niagara waterfalls. Our guide Ken Fung was excellent and made the trip even more special. Excellent hotel, service and very comfortable bus. Definitely recommended to all.

Me and my family had a great time. It was very well planned. Our tour Rachel Xu was fantastic! She helps us a lot to have a wonderful experience!!

It was a good bus tour beyond I expected. The tour guide Rachel was excellent. She's responsible and knowledgeable about the places. We like the shows in Corning Center, and the Niagara Falls was amazing! Definitely would recommend this tour to my friends.

We had a wonderful Niagara Falls trip! Maid of mist was amazing.Our tour guide Rachel was very warm and well organized. The only thing i want to complain is the bus, but it's still good price. I will recommend this tour for fun to my friends.

Too much time on bus, leaving too early arriving at hotel very late.charged 50% extra for rescheduling. And $40 tips no choice. All else lovely

I recommend for this tour. Value for money

Highly recommended! Very good attention and everything was perfect... I will take it again and will take another one in my next vacation.

It was my second time Niagara Falls tour with Taketours. My tour guide, Zoe Liu, was very kind, friendly and helpful. She made sure if everyone is doing ok all the time. If I can choose my guide for my next trip, I'd love go with her again. Very very cheap price for 2 days with a NOT cheap hotel! Thank you!

It was a great experienced to travel in take tours and will always book to any tour that I want if taken another vacation. Rachel Xu was a good tour guide and very caring, accommodating and most of all, she was making sure everybody is safe and on time on schedule.

I went with my family and we had a great time! Excellent service, very comfortable bus, our tour guide Nick made us feel welcome and safe, definitely recommended to all

the views of niagaras are incredible! it's totally worth the travel hours! we got a perfect tour guide,RachelXu. she made the tour went the smoothly.

We enjoyed the tour and will recommend to our friends and share our awesome experience. The tour guide Rachel was helful & proactive.

It was a great experience for us, even the weather was not perfect, but we had a prefect tour guide rachel xu, she was very respectful.

It a good experience. But the bad was a taxi driver and bus. The bus has not a security belt and taxi driver speak a lot of time for telephone and for over speed limit.

we enjoyed the tour with tour guide rachel even we weren't capabel to take the maid of mist. also it was a pity they canceled the jetboat because of the weather. i need to come back durning the summmer.

Rachel Xu was very helpful in taking care of my parents who attended this trip and does not know english. They had fun even though the bus ride was very long for the old folks. She text me throughout to keep me updated on their arrival time which is very much appreciated.

Racher is prefect tour guide, make the tour full of fun. Want to go with her next time.

This trip is perfect

This tour was great for me.I would recomend.

it was a amazing tour with Rachel(the tour guide). I thought the Niagara Tour was about the wonder of mother earth, but she told us the story between Edison, JP Morgan, Westinghouse and Tesla, that was surprised me. She also introdued the low-E glass from Corning Company. I've learn a lot this time!

I booked the tour for my families, they told me they enjoyed the tour even the weath and traffic were very bad. tour guide racheal help them a lot(my fimalied don't speak english) and driver mr.lin did a great job.i will highly recommend this tour to my friends and coworkers.

Good tour

It was a great experience to see Niagara Falls! Zoey is an excellent and a very sweet guide! I totally recommend this tour!

Niagara Falls tour was amazing.It was heaven on earth. Beautiful place to visit.Awesome Experience. Tour guidance was well managed.

This was an OK trip.

The tour was wonderful and my family had a great time.

My friend and I had a lot of fun on this trip. It had a full itinerary. I enjoyed the Native American Dance and the Maid of the Mist the most. Rachel Xu did an excellent job as our guide and kept us on schedule. The motor coach operator did an excellent job of keeping us safe even in the rain on our second day. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Rachel was very good guide

Amy our tour guide was the best tour guide I ever had. She did a great job. Professionalism paired with kindness and fun. Also big thanks to Mr. Sun, our driver. Always on time. Definitely recommend!

Our tour guide Rachel was sweet and very helpful.Took good care of the group.The tour was run exactly as written in the itinerary.We chose to not go for the Native American Dance show and the Adventure movie which gave us plenty of time to spend enjoying Niagara Falls.

Joined 2D1N nigara falls tour that lead by Ms Lilian. The tour was well organized, tour guide is knowledgeable and helpful. Ms Lilian worked hard to make sure that everyone can have a great time. Journey was smooth as we can see that the tour guide and driver had communicated well. Would recommend this company to friends and family.

Kenney Huang , our tour guide , was best guide ever I met. He's very kind and also good at English, so that I can understand very well. I'll recommend to my friends to go Niagara falls with Taketour. And actually he is very gentle and handsome.

Very nice tour. We did a lot of things and was constantly moving. We covered a lot in a short time frame. The guide Nicki was ok. The driver was rude. No excuse for that. Overall it was worth it and would do it again with a different driver.

it was so amazing .....we take almost 1000 picture in this tour...our tour guide LIDI LI is so nice...love for her.....

I just took this tour last week and it's my 2nd time taking the tour..it was a long drive but Niagara and passing by Watkins Glen was worth it..since the tour is sit in coach the leisure time is limited more on the travelling.The guide Lilian was very helpful and knowledgeable of her task. SHE also has a good sense of humour. I recommend this tour

Great tour! Visited a lot of places. The tour is well planned and organized. Lilian He, the tour guide, is very friendly and she gives as a clear instructions. The booked hotels were comfortable and clean. Lilian provided a lot of interesting information and facts. She is just Awesome!

Amazing tour with an awesome tour guide, Lilian He! I'll return for more for other trip!

What an amazing tour guide! Highly recommended!

It was a very nice tour. We have a nice tour guide, which is Lilian. If we have questions or problem, we can always talk to her and ask. She is always there to help. She's an awesome tour guide!!

It was a comfortable and safe journey. I would like to recommend. my tour guide Rachel took good care of me.

Was a nice trip and people , guide was very gentle Amy!!! ;) thank u!

I had really great time with my mom. My guide, Lillian was so kind and great! I used the other company for similar package, I had bad experience with other coampany. That's why I hestiated to take the package for Niagara. But, this time.. I'm really satified with thr service with reasonable price. Only one thing I hope to improve in this package is the status of bus... I could see lots of dust between the seats. Needed to clean up the bus.. and I felt too cold in the bus with AC on... Thank you, the driver Mr. Chen and guide MS. Lillian!

My family enjoyed this tour a lot! We have seen a lot during this two-days tour. Our tour guide Sabrina was super good,she was very organized and polite. I would recommend this tour to my friends.

I recommend this tour

Over all it was a good trip.. enjoyed the each moment... I appreciate the mgmt...

We took this tour last month and it was amazing. Definitely worth it! Eva our tour guide was so nice, and well informed about the places we visited. The coach and the hotel were excellent as well. We enjoyed it very much :)

Overall a good experience and a knowledgeable as well. Will surely take more tours. Only point is that, if we had returned in night rather than evening, we could have spent more time there.

Very nice tour and our tour guide Gary was really good and informative. Watkins Glenn par hike is a must!! I would say don't go for the scenic tour on day 2 as it is a waste of money ($25 per person)

Overall it has been an amazing trip. The highlight of the tour was Maid of the Mist. We had a wonderful time at Watkins Glen too...very scenic! Our tour guide, Borris was very helpful. We went home back on time.

Overall a good trip for 2 days.

Pleasantly surprised by this trip! The pit stops along the way took us through different states that made the trip even more fun. Leslie our tour guide was informative and friendly! The bus and the hotel were nice and clean and all the attractions were breathtaking! I would definitely recommend !

The Niagara tour was really wonderful, The "maid of mist" gave us an amazing experience! My tour guide Rachel Xu was very helpful and fun. She has very good knowledge about the history of the places visited during this tour. Overall lots of fun, and comfortable trip. Definitely recommend.

It was a good experience with Rachel , she is very good managing everything for everyone with care.Wish her good luck always. thank you Rachel.

We had a great time with Alan our tour guide n benny our bus driver. We covered a lot of places n activities. Wish they added Corning glass factory n cave of winds too. But I will surely recommend this tour.

The tour was very nice and covered all the major attraction points Our tour guide Rachael gave us ample time for all the attractions and was very accomodating. I would recommend the tour

Me and my parents really enjoyed this tour! We have seen a lot during this two-days tour. Our tour guide Ivy is super good,she is very organized and polite. I would recommend this tour to my friends. A very good deal!

This tour was great. Niagara falls is absolutely beautiful and the maid of the mist is a must do to be able to get the full experience and see both the NY and Canada side of the falls. We were able to stay to see the illumination of the falls which was beautiful. We left at about 9:20pm to go to our hotel, about 30mins away from the falls. Watkins Glen is gorgeous and unlike any we'd seen before. The natural structure of the park is truly a must see. Overall we enjoyed this trip and highly recommend it to anyone. Our tour guide Davina was also awesome!!

Overall tour was pretty enjoyable and adhered to the itinerary. Day 1 we stopped by Watkins Glen and walked through the Gorge Trail which was super scenic and a good break to stretch out those legs from the bus ride. We continued on to Niagra Falls and reached there before sunset to catch the Native American dance show prior to wrapping up the evening with the Niagra Fall's night viewing. The hotel we stayed at was Best Western Inn which was about a half hour drive. Room was spacious and clean, our tour guide Rachel made sure to stick around until we checked that our rooms were in good condition (very thoughtful). Day 2, we had free breakfast at the hotel and then headed out to the Old Fort Niagra Scenic Tour where we visited forts built but the French and the British...also very scenic. Followed by the Whirlpool area of Niagra Falls. Last but not least we headed back over to Niagra Falls for the Maid of the Mist boat tour, amazing to say the least. On the way back, I realized I had left my phone behind at the Welcome Center but our tour guide Rachel was super on top of it and actually had someone find it and bring it back to NY (2 thumbs up!). I really suggest this tour, not only is the price amazing but it was thoroughly enjoyable!

The tour overall was a great experience, if you are travelling alone for the first time. Special thanks to our tour guide Gary, being so responsible and cooperative at the same time which helped us to get the best experience! The hotel room was not very great, but was okay.

I totally recommend this tour, My tour guide was Stephanie..I went with my parents..so we had a very good deal..buy 2 get 1 free..so for 216 bucks we 3 got to see Niagara and Watkins glenn tour...so it was afull on money save for us ...Stephanie was very informative and very sweeet..she informed well advance about the tour , breaks and all...u rock Stephanie...

The tour was very nice . Our tour guide Tim was very friendly and patient. Hotel stay was excellent. We were able spent a good of time at the attractions. We really had a great time , would definitely recommend this tour for people visiting Niagara .

The tour was wonderful, The "maid of mist" gave us an amazing experience! My tour guide Rachel Xu is gracious, pleasant and fun to be with. i had lots of fun and learned so much.

Great tour we really enjoyed the guide ms Rachel Xu was fantastic. she made possible a beautiful trip to the Niagara Falls

it was a good experience. Rachel very good. we recommend her for another tour. we wish her good luck. thank you Rachel

Rachel Xu good girl does not get mad if you get late. She is going on well of being the professional tour guide.

Nice trip! Everything was good. the hotel was comfortable, clean and it was very nice.

Awesome tour and very honest people. I left my wallet in the bus and it had lot of cash and credit cards. I contacted tour guide and he told that he has got the wallet from the bus and I can come and collect it. When I checked all my cash and cards were there. All in all nice trip ,enjoyed very well and really impressed with there honesty

Excellent tour package. Just in time to the tourist spots & back home. Enjoyed the trip very much

This is our first time to travel using taketours. I can say that it is organized enough to enjoy multiple attraction. I really appreciate Zoe Liu our tour guide and Mr. Chen, our driver. A very great team. Some passengers are very inconsiderate and no discipline to follow 1 simple rule - don't be late. Before signing up please make sure that you know how to manage you time otherwise this tour is not for you. Eventhough some passengers came in late Zoe always kept her cool. She is very organize and very informative. Mr. Chen is a very good driver and everytime a passenger needs an access to their luggage he is very compliant. The motel could have been improve and the bus needs a leg room but for the price we pay it is justifiable.

I will recommend the Native American show, and I bought a dream catcher in the gift shop. My tour guide Rachel has a pretty dream catcher tattoo, she was awesome and try her best to give us a wonderful trip. Thank you, Rachel Xu. You are the best. You have not the easiest job in the world but you manage it very well.

Very nicely managed, Our Tour guide (EVA) and Bus Driver were great. Very accommodating. Also I asked for Front seats for parents and request was catered to. Thank you

This tour was awesome. Our guide Emily Huang was very patient and informative. I don't want to write a long review but just know that Watkins GLEN AWESOME!! the FALLS AT NIGHT AWESOME!!! Maid of the MIST AWESOME. THe FORT awesome!!!! The only down fall was TRAFFIC on a raining Friday (August 4,2017) and a few people that were a bit inconsiderate with our time on the tour. You have to remember this is a GROUP tour and its TIMED. This is not at your LEISURE so be mindful of the other people on this tour as well. I have no complaints about this at all. OHHH Be mindful of buying food at the Welcome center. THEY DOUBLE CHARGE taxes. the normal 8% nystax and another 8% for the building. NO GOOD. There are outside restaurants you can go to. Bring your own snacks. coming back we did not stop for a meal, just rest rooms. So the last meal you eat is at lunch time. So bring snacks or extra food if you can.

This tour packs a lot of great experiences in a small time. We particularly enjoyed the gorge stop on the way to Niagra Falls. Our tour guide Nick was very informative and even after a HUGE misunderstanding about drop off locations, he was very accommodating and my family made it to our hotel safely. Just a tip to travelers...be sure to pack many snacks for the return trip. The stops are for the bathroom and pretty much the bus stops every 3 hours or so at rest stops. The only food options were vending machines...it was brutal!

we took this tour from NYC to Niagra and it was pretty decent and economical(paid for two and got the third one off). I had lots of apprehension about the kind of stay they where going to put us in but it turned up pretty good(Mariott hotel). We had to pay for the attraction tickets which was not part of the package and that's fair enough since they also allow the flexibility to pick and choose. Some of the attractions like "Cave of the winds" & "Maid of the mist" is missing from the tour. Overall i felt its value for money. Our tour guide Rachel Xu was too good, informative and was fun to be with. I definitely recommend this tour.

Frankly speaking amazing trip.. People coming to NY please plan for this tour.. Our guide was Eva, we really want to appreciate her as her professionalism and attention to detail made all the difference for a truly memorable bus ride.. Our driver Kim, she was very experienced in her job. Her behaviour was very friendly during the trip. Please note this trip does not add caves of the winds. One of the must thing to do here.. please go for proper trip which includes caves of the winds.. trip follows strict timing.. so you can not plan for other things in the trip.. overall awesome.. Thanks Taketours, guide Eva, care taker bus driver Kim..

The best part of the trip was Rachel (our guide). She was very systematic and disciplined. She could manage the trip with so many passengers smoothly. I didn't like the food stops (on the way and near Niagara). Also, we didn't get time to have our course meals properly.

I been there on 2 days Niagara tour on July 4th 2017 along with my parents. I will remember this tour because of charming, informative tour guide "Rachel Xu". She is very energetic and caring tour girl with same energy for the entire two days tour. Accommodation at courtyard in buffalo was great and wouldn't expected such luxury hotel in this much tour cost. I will recommend this tour for others due to tour guide Rachel Xu and accommodation.

It was a great experience. Rachel was a spectacular tour guide and Juan was a great driver. Overall, I would recommend this trip to a friend and will be taking more trips with Take Tours in the future.

Me and my family went to Niagra on 28th . The tour was well organised with good hotel accomadation. The tour guid was Rachel and her guidance was excellent during the trip.

It was pretty much what I expected - Watkins Glen is great and Niagara Falls for sure. I went before and they used to stop at Corning too but now it is either Corning or Watkins Glen. Not everyone wants to go to Niagara Fort extended tour so itinerary can be made more friendly for those wanting to spend more time on their own at falls - would be great if they can go to 'Cave of winds' instead. I must complement our tour-guide Shentong Ohen (hope I got it right). I have been on several such tours and he's been the best so far - his English is great, very clear and easy to understand; he is very accomodating; even offered to help carry our baby. I found him smiling through-out the tour and despite the fact he's been to these places hundreds of time - he shared enthusiasm with people going for the first time. Good job buddy.

We four friend with families and our children have been to Niagara tour with Take Tours on 07/22/2017 to 07/23/2014. Started the journey in the morning from Flushing. From home we booked a cab and got down at the spot mentioned at the itinerary. We have already got a message from the tour guide that I will be your guide for two days. When we called after reaching at bus spot, the guide came and guided to the bus. That's the start of our fun and enjoyment of our whole journey. We all have been there with lots of enthusiasm to see the new spots. At every point guide have been very much helpful to us. We reached at Watkins Glen, the place filled with all natural beauty. The path was cutting side of the hill and filled with natural scenery of water and trees. Amazing site. At around evening we reached at Niagara. Immediately we rushed towards the night view. What a beautiful Night View scene. Completed and checked in at Hotel. The Hotel was very nice and very luxurious filled with all amenities. Next Day we say a Fort named “Old Fort�. It was very amazing to see the Soldiers presentation. On the way we say one river view and went to the most attractive place “Maid of the Mist�. We felt really amazing. What a wonderful sight. Life becomes incomplete if we do not come to Niagara once staying in US perhaps. The ship was very close to the fall and water was sprinkling over the head. Excellent memory. A MUST GO & Amazing experience. One of the rare experience is that I met one of my friend from India, there on the Ship. Just felt like the world is very small place. Me, my little girl and my wife all enjoyed it. My friends and their family also enjoyed very much. After we returned to see the movie “Niagara Falls Adventure Movie� show some history and important theme about the Niagara Falls. I must say you go once to Niagara Trip. The tour services are the Best one I think. Made our journey very comfortable. We express our sincere thanks to “Take Tours� for making an awesome trip. Our sincere thanks the drivers too for his patience. Lastly the Guide – Rachel Xi became one our very good friend. She is just awesome and very active always. Indeed very helpful at each and every point. The way she explains, takes care and keeping control of the tour is really praise worthy. Hats off to your efforts, sincerity, enthusiasm, true spirit and the best services Rachel – You made the trip more memorable. Praying for Almighty’s blessings to give the correct reward for your sincerity. You are the Best.. Without any doubt “Rachel is the Best.� “XieXie Rachel – The only Chinese word I know �. Thanks a lot Rachel Xi for all your much needed help and support throughout our tour.

It was a very satisfying experience and I would recommend it to my friends. The tour guides were well-versed, diligent and helpful, making sure to contact each head of party to ensure promptness. We were booked at Holiday Inn with very good amenities and close to a breakfast chain of restaurants. The main inconvenience was the lack of charging outlets for phones. The company must install the electrical outlets in the bus (#32) we used to be consistent with other buses with state of the art charging stations for each passenger.

Had a great time and really worth the money spent. Tony, our tour guide was fantastic, made every one comfortable through out the trip. We were 5 of us for the trip and were picked up at Parisspany NJ location on Saturday morning. I have been to Niagara Falls at least 10 times before but never part of a tour and had the best time, visiting so many sights that I had never been to. Salavatore's Grand Hotel was very good, everyone in the group was surprised at the hotel when we reached there, they all though the tour would put us up in a not too decent a hotel. There were enough restroom stops on the way. The only thing I disliked that people were always never on time getting back to the bus thus delaying us. I would highly recommend this tour and TONY is a great guide.

tour waS GREAT!

This tour was a perfect package for a weekend trip to Niagara. It also covered other attractions and Had good enough time to spend at every attraction. Highly recommended for single and families.

It was an amazing time spent on two days. We as 11 people enjoyed alot. Looking forward for next DC trip soon.

The overall experience was good. Only complaint I've is - they booked accommodation 40 mins away from the Niagara falls..which took away time from the night view ( we missed the fire works :( :( ) However, they allowed us enough time to enjoy the day view & do some shopping. Maid of mist experience was awesome.

Our tour guide Tony was amazing. He kept us engaged with knowledge of all destinations and we even had karaoke on the bus. He was a good singer and entertainer and was very caring towards elderly and respectful towards people of all countries. He ensured we kept on time the entire trip. The driver Mr. Chen was very good. We were put up at the Holiday Inn in Buffalo. I gave 3 star for transportation not because of the driving, but because the seats were very dusty, if anyone tapped on the seat a smoke of dust would come up. Otherwise the trip was amazing and I would highly recommend it.

For the price, I would definitely recommend this tour. Do not be fooled to assume that the amount covers the fees for the attractions. They do take you to the Corning museum but the amount of time available is way too less to have your lunch, attend the 20 minute and for visiting the exhibits. I would have liked spending more time there. The Niagara itinerary included a traditional dance show which we decided to skip and since they do not include Cave of the Winds (still wondering why), we went on our own in the time everyone else attended the dance performance. Maid of the mist was another wonderful experience but I would have liked spending some more time at Niagara though. I regret taking up the in depth tour (you pay extra for this too). It was informative but I probably would not have visited the places if I went on my own; I would have preferred chilling at the Niagara than rushing and visiting places I did not care about. This is a personal opinion of course; a lot of people on the bus did enjoy the in depth tour. For the money and duration you shell out, it a really good tour. I would definitely recommend this for families.

Me and two friends took this tour and we surprisingly like the tour very much. We initially thought because of the affordable price and many of the participants (including us) were Asian tourists, the tour will focus more on shopping and not on excursion. We were proven wrong and we are happy about it! Our guide, Ivy was patient and tried her best to ensure all participants experienced the most of the tour. We stayed at Quality Inn near Buffalo International Airport and it was nice and clean. My one complain is the bus. The seat was not comfortable, the leg room was painfully tight and the bus was dirty. I know other bus was better because in the end of the tour we were moved to another bus because our stop was in Manhattan and the rest of our original group went to Flushing.

The tour was really nice. Tour guide Vivian was friendly and did a pretty good job. We had a comfortable stay at the Best Western Inn and also had a complementary breakfast. However,about 30 more minutes should have been allowed for the illumination show.

Just amazing tour guide Amy was great. Whole experience was great.

Excellent tour. I'd highly recommend this tour. Our guide Justin Chen was great and helpful too. Ample time provided at all attractions, excellent hotel provided for stay.

The tour was very nice. The bus ride was smooth and the hotel was very comfortable. Both our tour guides Shentong and Jeff were really great. They took extra efforts on their end to make sure that everyone of the participants felt at home. They very sincerely managed everything so that we did not have to put any mental effort. They created a very fun filled and engaging atmosphere on the bus ride. They were extremely generous and shared their umbrella during the rain with the visitors and once when one of their umbrella bent due to the wind, they understood and did not ask anything from me (I was using one of the umbrellas of theirs). Overall I would remember both Shentong and Jeff for their calm demeanor and warm heartedness.

I highly recommend this tour. The journey, itinerary, accommodation were fantastic. The tour guides Ivy and Kitty were very informative, courteous, The bus driver was very good.

BEST TRIP - from start to finish Jeff our tour guide was the BEST, please take this trip you will love it. Thank you Jeff from group 1 (5/27-28/2017) we love you!!!!

this tour is so much fun, strongly recommended

our tour guides sheng tong and jeff were very friendly, helpful and lively. itinerary - is good overall - maid of the mist is very nice. need more time in the evening to watch the night view. also in morning, if some more time is available, then we can do attractions like cave of winds, jet ride etc. accommodation was comfortable. transportation was comfortable - a movie during travel would make it more entertaining

Me and my family took this tour and found to be very enjoyable. The facilities provided as offered. The tour guides Jeff and Chen though chinese origin, were very friendly and helpful and was speaking English and Chinese. I would recommend this tour to all. The catches are tickets worth 83 usd to ne purchased (optional) separately. The food will be bit expensive as the stops are in attractions. For me it was approximately 270 usd per head with food and all four events. Best of luck

2-day Niagara Falls Tour was amazing. Tour guides Shen Tong and Jeff were very entertaining.

Overall a very good experience. The guide, Mr. Mathew knew about the places we were visiting, the history associated. The accommodation was also very good, though there was no breakfast included. They start pretty early the second day, so without breakfast being included, it makes sense to be prepared. The time at Corning was shorter than what we would have liked it to be especially if you have kids. Another hour or so would be been fantastic, since there is lot to learn/see at the corning glass museum. But overall, if you want a hassle free trip, it makes all sense and we felt it was time worth spent and value for the money too.

We took this trip and it was amazing . they provided good accommodation for stay. It was properly planned and i think they should give more time for fall visit specially for the night view . Even tour guide Emy was very helpful. special thanks to her.

We joined 2 days Niagara Falls from Taketours. We were happy with the tour package and the schedule was organised well. The accommodation (Holiday Inn, Buffalo) was good. The Corning Museum of Glass was a pleasure to visit but Maid of the Mist was the highlight of the tour. The tour guide, Allen speaks English and Mandarin fluently and has a broad knowledge of the place we visited. As a note, the foods at Niagara Falls food court for our dinner and lunch are not only expensive but not good too.

I would say that the tour was fine. My mom and aunts really enjoyed it, though it was unfortunate that we don't have enough time to avail the longer tours. We stayed in Best Western the room was decent enough, we also had a free breakfast. And of course, our tour guide Jenny was good in what she does. Definitely did a good job to meet our schedule most of the time. I would recommend it if you are in a budget or want to save money.

Exactly as others mentioned the Take tours is amazing. 2 days Niagara tour (22nd April & 23rd April) was very good, with nicely arranged and not missed a single attraction and they have also provided us sufficient times as well during the journey. Accommodation was also very good. Special thanks to our Guide Olivia was very cordial and helpful and she guided the tourist with all possible options. If you're looking for a bus tour from New York to Niagara, I'll highly recommend it.

I highly recommend this tour, the tour guide Jim is super awesome. he organized everything so well, everyone was on time and very enjoyable. I would book again n again. all the site seeing places were very good. would

Excellent tour, our tour guide Emily Huang was outstanding

We had an amazing trip! It was a lot of fun at the attractions. Maybe we could get another hour at the Corning museum, that is the only complaint (if i can call it one..). The museum is amazing, and we need time for shopping too! Our tour guide LiDi was fantastic. She took all the steps to ensure we were thoroughly informed and aware of what we do. And her enthusiasm at helping people take pics was amazing. What she brought in was a cheerful enthusiasm which helps rid of the monotony on a long bus trip. The accommodation provided was awesome! 5 min walk from the falls! What more could we ask for! Overall a satisfying experienced

Had Great experience.. Must thing to do is the Maid of the Mist. All other things are just good to have.

It was a great trip, nice to see the works from glass and the shop in the Corning museum. Lucky to take the boat at the first day of the year.

Just a decent trip. It was cold so everything was closed. Tour guide was alright and the trip was just ok all around.

2 day Niagara Falls tour was really good.We enjoyed every moment of the tour. The bus and hotel accommodation was good

I would recommend this 2 days tour. It was really pleasant. Our tour guide Stephany was very cordial and she taken care of all the passengers. She also shared useful historical information to us.

So much. So good. A quick getaway that was marvelous..our guide Chloe was great.

This trip was incredible! I only had two days off work and this really made the most of the two days. I was worried about how long the bus ride was going to be, but we stopped regularly and saw some incredible sight. On the first day we went to the hidden caverns which I loved-worth doing. Our accommodation was much nicer than I expected. We went in winter so the Maiden Mist was closed, but we did the jet boat ride instead. This was $61 which I thought was pricey so so worth it. It was the highlight for me. Our tour guide Allen was Awesome. We was very friendly and helpful, a blast to be with.

2 day Niagara Falls tour is really excellent.We enjoyed every moment of the tour. The bus was nice, the hotel was particularly very good. Our guide Jayant is a very nice, cordial and caring for all passengers. Jayant is very knowledgeable as well, he provided a lot of useful and historical information about the places we were travelling. I will highly recommend my friend to take this tour to Niagara fall.

Great trip. Tour guide is very helpful

2 days Niagara tour was very good, nicely arranged and not missed a single attraction. Tour Guide Jayant was very cordial and helpful and he guided the tourist with all possible options.

I am so glad and lucky to find a tour to Niagara Falls during Thanksgiving holidays. My son came along with us for the first time and he did enjoy the tour, especially the Jet boat Adventure. The tour guide was very nice and informative about the places we visited. She was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. The hotel was located right at the Niagara Falls Observation Deck and we did not have to worry about the time to get back to the bus. One thing I would recommended is to add or book a good restaurant around the town. I missed the real food and fast food is good for a while. The whole experience was great and i am planning another tour in a different place during the winter holidays!!

Two days trip to Niagara, Wonderful experience and well organized with enough stops. To spend enough time at main attraction which is Niagara falls (both night and day view), thundering water cultural show and imax movie is not recommended.

I am looking forward to travel to Niagara

I Booked this tour Online and was afraid since i was alone that how will it go But right from the point i took the bus and return back to dropping point I did not felt my feeling earlier was incorrect.My Tour Guide Damon Tong was an great person,a friendly person and also helped to cover all the places on the right time. Bus condition good,Driving skills was awsome and the hotel stay was great more than expected.Just one addition in this iternary would be suggested is to add cave of the winds which was not there.all in all Will never forget this tour. Thanks a lot for all the Support And Yes Thanks Damon.

I booked the 2-day tour to Watkins Glen and the Niagara Falls as an ad on to a week in New York and I traveled with my granddaughter. It was very well organized. The bus journey was a long 8 hours but with ample shorter stops on the way. Watkins Glen was stunning in its autumn colors and a fabulous bonus on the trip. We had wonderful weather even in mid-October and the Falls showed themselves in all their magnificence. The guide Caroline was a very informed guide who communicated well with the group, so we all knew what was happening at what times I can absolutely recommend this trip.

My friend and I went on this trip a few weeks ago and we think it was a perfect trip! We are currently au pairs in the U.S. and are trying to travel as cheap as possible. TakeTours offers this cheap tour which is actually really great and way better than we thought since it is so cheap. Our tour-guide KK was a really nice guy and attempted to make as many jokes as possible. He answered our questions and helped us to have the perfect trip. We have met him in Chinatown from where we took the bus. The bus did not drive straight but stopped couple times for a break. It was awesome because that way you were able to go to the restrooms, get some fresh air or sometimes even food. Also, you can buy for 10$ a hike through the Watkins Glen State Park on your way to the Niagara Falls. We thought 10$ is too much because there is no fee for anything, but nevertheless, I really recommend to do it. It was so great! I have seen many parks in my life yet, but this one is definitely one of my favorites! After that break, we drove to the Niagara Falls. We arrived at a welcome center where you can have some dinner. It is expensive but fine. My friend and I went to the Niagara Falls, had some dinner and watched the show called Thundering Water Cultural Show later that day. It was about different dances and did not worth the money. It was a fun experience, but in our opinion really not as good to pay 25$ for. After that, we drove to a motel which was really awesome. We had a great night in Buffalo, but you need to know you have to get up early again the second day. We took the in-depth-tour for 25$ and saw the Old Fort Niagara and the Niagara Falls Whirlpool which were both really impressive. That's why I highly recommend it to you. Later that day, we took the famous boat called 'Maid of the Mist' and had a great view of the Niagara Falls, which I will never forget. This 18,50$ tour is definitely a must-have attraction of the tour!!! After that, we had some more time to eat lunch. Therefore we went to the Hard Rock Café where we had some really good lunch. To put it in a nutshell, a very exhausting, but really fun and awesome trip!

Well-organized. The bus was rather comfortable and there were enough stops. The tour was as described and very interesting! Two-day trip is pretty enough to visit the Niagara falls.

We booked TakeTours for the 2-day Niagra falls tour on the 8th and 9th of October 2016. Basically, we started a bit late from our source as there was a change in the departure location which was not notified to us earlier and also there was the Bus battery problem which took some time to resolve. But it was OK. Our tour guide was friendly and accommodating. We stopped at Watkins Glen State Park and it was magnificent! The hotel was very nice and the ride to and from was decent. The itinerary was a bit hectic with time slots for each attraction could be increased more. Overall, I would recommend TakeTours to anyone planning to visit the Niagara Falls.

We booked TakeTours for the 2-day Niagra falls tour on the 1st and 2nd of October 2016. Our tour guide was very entertaining, friendly and accommodating. We stopped at Watkins Glen State Park and it was magnificent! Then we visited Old Fort Niagara in the morning on the second day, and the Falls. It was perfect and beautiful. The hotel was very nice and the ride to and from was decent. The itinerary was bit hectic with time slots for each attraction could be increased more. Overall, I would highly recommend TakeTours to anyone planning to visit the Niagara Falls.

The Niagara tour was a fun experience for me and my two friends which was their first time. The side tours like the Watkins Glen State Park and the Old Fort Niagara were really interesting. Our tour guide, Jayant, did an amazing job. We learned some history from him.

Our tour guide was Kitty Liu. She is the kindest hearted and friendly person. The whole tour was well planned and executed. Starting from buying the tickets to booking hotels were all done very nicely and timely. All we had to do was reach there on time. As it is a group tour so timing is important. My parents are above sixty and on few occasions we were late, but our tour guide was very compassionate. We have thoroughly enjoyed the trip especially the “Maid of the Mist�. I highly recommend the Take Tours for Niagara Falls. PS: The bus condition can be improved.

I had taken this tour on 13 September 2016. Our tour guide was Allen and he did a great job as a tour guide. It was a bilingual tour, but he cared the English guys as like the Chinese ones.As it takes 8 hours to reach either side, there was stop after 2 hours for restroom and drinks. The attractions are completely optional and can pay for the attractions you choose. First, we visited Watkins Glenn state park and it is not recommended for those who have knee and leg problems. But for those who choose to take up the attraction, get ready to walk 700 steps but the attraction was so good. it is recommended. the thundering water cultural show is not so recommended , so is the imax movie. We get to see the night view and day view as well. The hotel for stay was Holiday Inn and the stay was good. Second-day attractions are all recommended and must see. Allen had a great itinerary and our team was all punctual. The stops for food were good, as we had options for Chinese, American and Indian as well.

My tour guide was Dimon and he was good. He tried to continue our tour as possible as he could because it was raining at that time. The accommodation was better than I expected so I really appreciated that. The overall of the tour went well so I think I will travel with TakeTour again. :D

A well paced,entertaining & well hosted tour. Kudos to Ms Caroline Zheng for her professionalism

The tour guide Christine was very helpful. As a driver myself it hard to feel safe with anyone, but I felt safe with him. I enjoyed myself and so did my sister and friend. The only thing was that everything was done in a rush. It would have been nice to spend some quality time near the falls at night. Overall it was a great trip and the motel was clean and comfortable.

We were 7 people and booked 2 day Niagara tour for 3rd, 4th September. We were more than happy with the entire tour. Our tour guide, Olivia Xie, was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and made sure that we maximize our time and experience. She was great in managing, guiding the whole tour. The stay at the hotel was also good. We enjoyed a lot. I would highly recommend Take Tours for visiting Niagara falls. PS - The condition of our bus was ok ok, not so excellent type.

Tour was good over all. All facilities provided was good.

We took 2-day Niagra falls trip. Our guide Suki was very friendly and professional combined with bus driver Mark was a perfect team. All along the trip they told in advance what we are going to do. It was a pleasant experience for me and my family. The trip was a bit rush through IMO because of the long traveling time (~8 hrs each way.)

the tour we take 0n 07/09 and 07/10 .Tony was our guide he was good. watkin state park is not for elders as it was very time cosuming. day 1 watkins and movie @ niagara. Day 2 niagara old fort and Maid of mist . above ALL MAID of MIST is good.

We booked TakeTours for the 2-day Niagra falls tour on the 5th and 6th of August 2016. I must say, we were more than happy with the entire experience. Our tour guide Zoe Liu was very friendly and helpful and made sure we maximize our time and experience. Even the bus driver Mike was very efficient and friendly and made sure our ride was as comfortable as possible. The accommodation provided exceeded our expectations. Overall, I would highly recommend TakeTours to anyone planning to visit the Niagara Falls.

Our tour guide was stone , very friendly and accommodating. The idea of Day 1 Niagara falls by night was a great one , except would have preferred to reach a bit early to experience the night thoroughly.we reached Niagara fall by 5PM would have wished to reach by 4PM. Tips DAY 1 - reach Niagara by evening , skip everything at Niagara just opt for Maid of the Mist , then immediately check upon the crowd at the welcome center for the cave of the winds , do it if it's just 45mins wait time else skip it.enjoy your evening and night around Niagara falls and you would get plenty of time to take snaps. Day 2 - opt for everything , don't miss Watkins glen park for sure.glass making museum is ok-dokie. Down points - Bus doesn't have charging points for drained out mobiles - Day 1 would have preferred more time to explore Niagara in the night.

One needs to have in mind that guidance is bilingual, so it that bothers you, you should choose English only tour. As well guidance and transportation is outsourced, so Take Tours only sells this. We received communication from guide late night prior early morning start, so this should be improved. The guide was energetic, knowledgeable and tried really to keep on the schedule, however, we started 20 min late due to 2-4 late arriving guests the whole bus waited in the sun without AC turned on. Also if you don't pick optional activities you are left on your own, sometimes when everything rest is closed, so review this and skip activities where you can use the time differently. All rest was good, great accommodation for this price point, very professional driver, internet on the bus, etc. So effective way to see Niagara from NY recommended, but have in mind this is long drive ;)

I, along with my sister and 2 friends, thought we were going straight to Niagara Falls. But along the way, we stopped at Watkins Glen State Park and it was magnificent! Then we visited Old Fort Niagara, and the Falls. It was perfect and beautiful. Perfectly beautiful! The hotel was very nice and the ride to and from was decent. FYI: no bathroom or wifi on the bus! And our tour guide really could've been more pleasant!

Took this tour over the 8/20 weekend.The tour was great.The tour guide Diana Wang was wonderful...giving us enough time to each attraction and providing information about the places we visited! I would recommend this tour to anybody looking for a quick getaway!

Highly recommend this tour. My tour guides, Allen and Jayant, were very well prepared with information and were very serviceable and accommodating. They were very organized and patient even when some of my fellow passengers were not as compliant. The itinerary was great: I really liked Watkins Glen. A word of caution though, if you're travelling with older adults or people with knee problems you should not do the Glen. One thing I wish for is more time for eating on the second day...however this was manageable. Overall, this tour is great.

It was very good, our tour guide was Cecilia Wu, she is a perfect tour guide. Enjoyed lot :)

Everything was perfect except time... I really liked this tour!

Everything was great except drop off location changed.

The trip this weekend to Niagara Falls with Chole was spectacular. Thank you, Chole, great guide. I would recommend other to use TakeTour it was a great package.

The trip was awesome, timely and well organized. Chole was a great guide, well mannered. well informed, fun, and made everyone feel welcome. Love it, thank you TakeTours.

My Parents took the trip and they liked it. Tour guide Jake was good. Overall, good experience

I recommend this tour. The hotel/guide/transportation were perfect!!! I really liked it!

I recommend this tour

We booked this Niagara Trip after my friend recommended to me and it was a great tour. We loved every bit of it. The tour operator Zoe Liu was extremely helpful,friendly and informative. The hotel where we stayed was above expectations. The itinerary was also good especially the Watkins Glenn and Old Niagra Fort. And the best part of the trip was Niagra Falls and the Maid of the Mist. It's a must have experience. I would recommend this tour to my friends and family.

Very nice tour and nicely organized. Special mention of Zoe Liu the tour guide. My dad is diabetic and has a heart condition. In the Watkins Glen park, she helped my dad to climb up and down stairs and accommodated us very nicely in the trip. She is a great tour guide and i highly recommend her.

Following are the events during July 30 - July 31, 2016 At the beginning, would like to mention that i have a Family of three (Husband, Wife, and 3-year-old Daughter Indian and recently immigrated to the US). I booked this trip in the last 2 days, so had to pay 135/ person, instead of 108, so the total came to 270 for three(buy2 get 1 free deal or toddler travel free deal). And at the beginning, the Guide informs us of the Attractions Entry fee and the Service charge to be paid by Cash only, which for us came to 212 USD (all attractions + service charge). Few instructions they give to us in the beginning: 1. Please make sure you are on time for reaching the bus to start the tour (6.30am), for seeing the attractions and also for meal / restroom breaks. 2. The Toilet in the bus will be closed (to be opened only for extremely urgent cases). As it gives out an unpleasant smell which will be very uncomfortable for the backseat passengers. The bus was air-conditioned and full with passengers. We took a flushing starting point which comprised a 60% Indian, 30% Chinese and 10% rest. The guide gives us instructions in both English and Mandarin. A garbage bag is hung in the entrance of the bus for passenger's convenience. We started off from Flushing at 7.05 am. Day 1: 1. Our first Stop: Parsippany (Dunkin Donuts at 8.30am) Mini Breakfast - picked up 5 -10 more passengers. Had to buy some donuts to use the restroom and they check the receipts before they let you use their toilets. And when my wife went to use the restroom with the same receipt they told us that one purchase allows only one usage. 2. Second Stop: Burger King (after entering New York from Pennsylvania 11.30am) Lunch Time- they give us 30-40 minutes to complete our lunch and onto our first attraction. 3. Third Stop: Watkins Glen Park (If you have a kid, no strollers allowed, you can choose to opt out if you have elderly people in your group). It was a wonderful mini-trek of 1.3 Miles downhill with amazing views of waterfalls and flowing streams. The bus takes us uphill (restroom available uphill free) and waits for us downhill. This 1.15-hour trek is worth it (it was drizzling and the Crocs we wore were sometimes slipping) I had to carry my 3-year-old on my shoulders the entire duration. Downhill after we reach, there is a gift shop and our bus. The bus trip to our next attraction goes via the Finger Lakes nice view. 4. Third Stop (Planned for Maid of the Mist, but our tour company changed that as there was an hour long waiting time by Saturday evening) Old Fort Niagara. It was sunny by the time we reached and there is a mini show by an Actor playing olden-times British soldier. 1 hour stop. It was a clear day and we can see the Toronto Skyline (far off) next to the fort. 5. Fourth Stop: Whirlpool state park – A regular park, sort of seeing a deep pit with whirlpool waters at the bottom. The Canada side is pretty close – they have a cable car to get Canadian tourist close to the bottom. 6. Fifth Stop: Niagara Falls Night view. Stopped close to the Glass Building Food Court at 6.30pm crowded, long lines for the restrooms. Had Dinner (expensive and mediocre taste. we had a non-veg 14 USD and one plate 13 USD, the total bill of 32 (including tax)). The tour guide informed us prior that the hotel accommodation would not be giving any free breakfast (she said if we paid ourselves it would be expensive) and suggested us to take something with us as breakfast. 7. Sixth Stop: Thundering Storms dance show by Native Americans on the second floor of the Glass Building Food Court at 7.30pm. 8. Seventh Stop: Holiday Inn Downtown Buffalo for the night. Great for a family of three and the room had 2 queen beds, TV and coffee machine (enough supplies for 4 cups). The room is Wi-Fi enabled, but we just had a bath and went to sleep. The tour guide informed us that we have to be downstairs in the hotel lobby by 7.45am and the hotel also gives us a wake-up call by 6.30am. We woke up at 6am and slowly started getting ready, packed our stuff and ate our breakfast (Me-one watermelon fruit cup, my wife one pineapple fruit cup and my daughter one watermelon fruit cup and 4 dollars each from the Niagara Falls Glass building food court). We were still hungry and ready early by 7.15 am so we went down to the Holiday Inn restaurant and ordered breakfast of one coffee, one waffle with maple syrup and a couple of pancakes altogether the breakfast bill came to 11 USD (which according to me is cheap). The bus started at 8 am sharp. Day 2: 1. First Stop: Niagara Falls State Park and Maid of the Mist, 9am - As soon as we got down, it started Raining and we all dashed for the visitor center for gaining access to the Maid of the Mists. The tour guide gives us tickets to the next attraction (IMAX show of the history of Niagara Falls which is at 10.15 am) The entire bus crowd wanted to go Maid of the Mist (even though it was raining only one family opted out as they had elderly people in their group). Running we went to the entrance of the observation deck ticketing booth and the condition is that tickets can only be issued to a tourist who has to be present in front of the cashier while collecting. Then running to the towards the elevator (long line) .There are 4 elevators with Park attendants helping us into each elevator. Once down at water level, we had a small tent which gives us the poncho blue color according to our size which is free for us to take with us after the ride. The Maid of the Mist trip was truly breathtaking. As we pass the American Falls, there is a significant mist which forms water droplets on our faces. My wife's makeup was ruined which we laughed away. Then as we reach the Main Horseshoe falls of the Niagara, the mist and view are really awesome. The Canadians also have a similar Maid of the Mist (their tourist wear a red poncho). 2. Second Stop: IMAX movie about Niagara at the visitor's center at 10.15 am. As we all are drenched by the previous rain, we make our way to the theater pretty big compared to the Visitor's center building. The Movie was ok and looks like it was made in the late 90's. 3. Then lunch at a nearby Indian restaurant (House of India – buffet for 14.50 per person). 4. Back to the Bus at 11.45am to our trip back to New York. We made a couple of stops for restroom breaks and caught a significant bit of traffic just before entering New York City. Reached the same stop (starting point) by 8.45pm. Home by 9.15pm. All in all a great experience – only con was the time duration at each stop.

Nice tour and good stay at Days Inn. Be prepared to take cash with you as most of the outside vendors near Niagara don't accept credit cards. Wish had more time at Watkins as it was difficult with small kids to walk down around 800 steps.

Our tour guide Jake Yang was amazing! He was very personable and knowlegable of all sites we visited. I went with my wife and her friend and we had one of the best trips ever and will definetly be coming again. I recommend this trip to everyone and to request Jake because he made our experience that much better. Thank you Jake! -Jon, Julia, Anya

This tour is worth it, very organized. Our tour guide Jake Yang speaks English very well so everybody understands everything and he tells every detail of the places we will be going and explain the history of it. The hotel is clean and bigger than what we are expecting because of the cheap price of this tour. So all in all this is a thumb up...and the driver is excellent too...

Our experience with this tour was decent. Transportation has been excellent. The biggest problem we faced was the lack of time given to us after visiting the attractions.

Great Experience

Jake Yiang is an excellent guide . All times was outstanding group, kept us well informed, the places we visited were excellent and provided the same explanation. I really recommend it as a group leader and guide . Excellent work, Jake.

Jake yang was tour leader. He is so kind and nice. He can speak english well so i could understand easily:) im very satisfied with this tour!!!

It was my very first time traveling to Niagara Falls with my little sister. Apparently it is a Chinese organization that we traveled with. We both really liked our tour guide Jake Yang. He was funny and made the tour a very interesting and entertaining experience. We did our research beforehand which attractions to go for - that way you can actually save some money and use the free time to explore around just by yourself.

This tour made for a very pleasant trip to Niagara Falls. Our tour guide Emily was very sweet & helpful. I didn't realize how far it actually was to Niagara from NJ & so for an overnight trip I would highly recommend it, that way you are rested when you arrive. If you are departing from Parsippany there is overnight parking in front of the IHOP out by Rt. 46. I checked this with the local Police Dept. Anywhere else you could risk getting towed. Many buses stop @ this location to pick up other passengers, so your particular tour guide will be looking out for you & you may not be on the first bus that arrives. Also, be prepared because they try to sell you the attractions, so decide what you want to do first & have the cash on hand to pay for it. Many people didn't read the fine print & didn't understand this, they thought it was all inclusive. It is not. There is also an $8 per person per day mandatory fee for the driver & tour guide (They get $4 each)so be prepared with cash for that. I would highly recommend The Maid of the Mist boat tour it is awesome!! We really enjoyed Watkins Glen as well it was a nice break in the middle of the trip up. If you try to do all the attractions you won't have much time to spend @ the falls. We did only the 2 attractions mentioned above & had plenty of time to explore the falls. There is so much to see & do, there is no need on a 2 day trip to do everything they recommend (unless of course you like to tour that way). We were pleasantly surprised that the hotel was very clean, basic, but Comfortable. Also, you have to catch the bus @ 7:00 am the next morning which makes for not much sleep, but if you go to the falls then, no one is there, so it's a great time to see them. We also brought our own food & were able to have a cooler in the storage under the bus. Many people brought cases of water as well. The bus wasn't top of the line, but it was adequate & comfortable. There is a stop for lunch on the way up, but only 2 quick rest stops on the way home, so you might want to have snacks on hand. I know this is long, but it's all info I wish I knew ahead, hope it helps. We would definitely do it again it was a good deal with the 3rd person free.

I went with my family for a 2 day Niagara tour. Here is my experience It was very enjoyable but a little bit tiring due to travelling The places you should never miss are the Maid of the Mist, Watkins Glen park They provided a good hotel for one night accommodation, the tour guide was ok, the travel bus is an old one but just comfortable. Yes, I recommend this tour to others

Tina was our tour leader for Niagara Falls 2 days trip and she was incredibly nice and helpful. And Emily Huang was the tour leader who helped us to get our lost iPhone that we had dropped at Niagara Falls! I also want to thank Emily immensely! We enjoyed the trip incredibly much, and would definitely go again!!

Friendly tour guide, Max who provides detailed explanation and narration on the places of interest, Niagara Falls. Recommended.

The tour are amazing we have a very good time the tour boy Max is very helpful and good

The tour was exciting and we had no trouble while going for the attractions. The best thing was we got 2 days of fun and adventure without having to worry about accommodation and travel. Our guide Max was certainly one of the best guides I've met here. He helped us out whenever we wanted some help

Nice and easy. Tour guide Mike Lee was excellent. This One day tour covers the Niagara extensively and beyond. A minor hiccup in the transportation which was handled efficiently. Stay was very comfortable for us right at Niagra. Overall a value for money.

Excellent value for money. The tour guide Lidi was an awesome person. The tour has good itinerary and the accommodation provided is more than you can ask for.

Jake Yang ~ dear my tour guide :) It was a wonderful tour ! I want to join this tour later. Because everything was so perfect ! I travel alone Nee york so It's hard to go Niagara fall that's why I decided to join the tour. Jake yang treat me and other people ! He is so sweet and explained all place that we visit in detail. He is so smart. I highly recommend someone who read this review join this tour with Jake Yang. I sure that you could make great memory :)

I visited the two-day tour to Niagara Falls on 26th June 2016 with my family and the experience was amazing. The tour guide Jason was very good and informative. The accommodation was excellent and transportation was also convenient . I would recommend this tour to all.

1stly I was doubtful when i navigated to this website from another one. But then when i booked our trip and it started i was so impressed that i plan on taking another once i can afford it. My husband and myself together with 2 girls started off early Saturday morning arriving in Chinatown for departure @ 8am sharp. Our tour guide did messages the night before so we were updated and aware to where we were meeting up. Upon arrival our tour guide Toni Xzhang was already there and greeted us accordingly.We left promptly and On time. Toni had a few rules which i think was necessary and it really helped with us making good time and ensuring a very enjoyable trip. We arrived at Niagara and had time to board the maid of the mist boat and enjoy it as well. Toni made sure everyone was having fun and always with arrivals at sites and departures he made sure that we used the bathrooms and everyone was aboard and ready to go. He had our tours ready and tickets at hand always. Also made sure that people who wasnt doing that particular tour had something to do. At the hotel everything ran so smoothly that i was shockingly impressed at the service. PRO: The trip itself from this website is very affordable. CON: It does not include a few "overhead" fees (an $8 fee for tour guide and bus driver) per person. so in my case i paid $32 a day so i paid $64 in total which was given on our return. PS: it was worth it. PRO:The sites and activities is worth what you pay for. CON: The food is EXPENSIVE.And you pay 2 sets of taxes there. So be aware where you buy and what you buy. I had a small issue in that i had initially called the company to find out about the hotel room. i was unsure about what the occupancy was. But i think the customer service rep didnt understand what i was asking and i ended up booking 2 rooms.But with the 3rd person discount i received it worked out. Toni made sure our stay was enjoyable and i wouldn't mind taking another tour with him. Please take this tour. I have lived in NYC for so long and i can finally enjoy it. Stress free.

2day tour to Niagara Falls and Watkins Glen was amazing, will definitely recommend to friends

Great tour. Bus ride a little long at times so go prepared to sit. Great price. Tour guide Howell was great. Very nice hotel. Awesome trip all together. Will travel again.

Me and my wife took 2 days Niagara falls and Watkin Glens tour from Newyork. I took Niagara trip with 1000 islands back in 2011 with TakeTours with my friends and was sure that everything is properly managed and she won't be annoyed by any mismanagement. And it turned out to be a very Exciting and Joyful Trip with Tony Zhang as a Super Tour Guide, full of energy and humble. Though it was busiest holiday/long weekend time, He made sure everything will work out as planned itinerary and everyone gets to see all the attractions plus have a free time off. Overall Good Experience and Tony Thank you for all your help.

Great tour. Very time efficient. Good driver, nice guide. Highly recommended.

We had the best time in our tour to Niagara Falls. It was very well organized and Max our tour guide was very accommodating and explained very clearly our plans for the day and the sights we are about to visit!!! I will definitely do it again and recommend this!

Very nice organized, and helpful. Recommended for friends.

Two days tour to Niagara was a wonderful one. Everything on time in Independence Day weekend even in a huge rush. Max helped a lot in timing, buying a ticket for us. No standing in Queue. Thank you so much, Max!

Toni zhang was the best tour guide I have ever meet look handsome and very polite and very patient. All the trips itinerary was well timed. But the food at Niagara fall welcome centre which I did not like but overall everything was fantastic and also we have two tour guide along this trip. Kevin was very nice too. This tour to Niagara falls it's very recommended to relax and enjoy the nature also the maid of mist was one of the most beautiful scenes . Love it

The tour bus was old but it was okay. The tour guide was ok but should've explained each tour option. Be sure to bring sufficient cash for all the tours. Watkins Glen park was one of the most amazing places I've visited. The cultural dance was not worth it at all. The hotel room was clean and the beds were extremely comfortable at Days Inn. Bring drinks, snacks, and food. We did stop by a McDonald's on the way there, but coming back, there were no food stops. The food at Niagara Falls is alright, a bit pricey and not very tasty...We spent an extra $120 on tours/tips per person. Be prepared with cash.

Tina &Emily, our leaders for Niagara Falls 2 days trip, were very nice, pleasant and useful. We enjoyed their company and their spirit. Thanks

Tour was nice. I took it second time. The service has been improved so much. Concern regarding parking facility from where the bus leave. All the people are looking for some parking option. You can provide some paid parking facility also which will be optional.

Great tour. Very time efficient. Good driver, nice guide. Highly recommended.

Hi, It was a very good trip on the Memorial Day weekend.The travel guide Lynn was excellent. Would recommend others to take this tour to Niagara.

I highly recommend this tour! If you can try all the activities in the Itinerary, your 2 day trip is worth it! Love the Watkins Glen State Park - good for the heart. Hiking and Superb view in one! Niagra Falls - very beautiful! We tried Maid of the midst; rainbow was awesome! In-Depth tour was great! We saw the Whirlpool State Park and The Fort Niagra State Park. The Niagra Falls Adventure Movie was informative yet fun! Oh btw, the hotel was nice too! We are lucky to have our 2 beautiful tour leaders; kudos to Zoe to Chloe! Till our next adventure.

We took this tour on 24th May. It is really a great deal! Our guide Jennifer was so sweet! The tour was very well planned. Watkins Glen was fantastic as was Maid of the Mist! We were put up at Days Inn which was very nice. Although my pickup point was Brooklyn,Jennifer was accommodating enough to drop me off in Manhattan. Would highly recommend this tour!

the tour and the arrangements were great. the bus was an hour late. glen watkins was awsome and niagara falls was supereb i highly recommend this trip to everyone.

Great tour. Fun and informative. Max is really friendly and helpful also co operative. We loved the tour and Max's company a lot. We loved the accommodation too. Max was well organized and time efficient but at the same time cared about the travelers and even waited for people who arrived a little late after one of the park tours. So they do consider everyone's situation and help accordingly. My parents really loved this tour and would recommend highly.

The tour was very well planned and implemented. Our tour guide Max Liang was very helpful and friendly. The best part was that we got to visit the Niagra falls twice in the 2 day trip which was awesome. Would highly recommend these guys!

We just got off the 2 days Niagara Falls trip, it was amazing, breathtaking and the tour staff lead by the amazing Max were really helpful and knowledgable about the sites. I would do it again in a heartbeat, thanks guys!

MORE THAN WHAT I EXPECTED THIS TOUR WAS AWESOME!! I HONESTLY THOUGHT THE ATTRACTIONS WOULD BE RUSHED BUT WE HAD JUST ENOUGH TIME TO SEE EVERYTHING! We did all the attractions except for the Cultural Show. Not sure how that went but since we skipped out on it we had some free time once we got to the hotel to walk around and appreciate the beauty that is Niagara Falls. I would def go again when I get the chance! Just make sure to bring LOTS of snacks/food for the long bus ride and once you get to the falls. The food is $13 and up for the most part, for me I feel like it's not worth it but that just my taste. Lots of other groups bought their own food which was def the more economical option. Other than that this trip was amazing. I departed from the Flushing location a little after 7 and then we went to Chinatown to take the actual bus that would take us up there. We made about two restroom/food stops before getting to Watkins Glen. They were about 2-3 hrs apart each. For the lunch stop we got about 45 mins, enough time to relax. We got to Watkins Glen at about 2pm and we had until 3:30, which was just enough time to go down the mountain and take a quick stop at the gift shop. After that we headed to the Falls and got there at about 6:40. We had until 7 to leave our stuff in the hotel. After that those who were going to the cultural show had until 8:30 to get there but since we chose not to do that we had the rest of the day to do whatever. We went to Luna Island, the view there of the falls is so much better! The next day we departed around 7:30 to Old Fort Niagara where you get an AMAZING view of the lake. Def go to this. We then went to a short scenic view of the Whirlpool and then we headed back to the falls to go on maid of the mist.THis was EPIC and beautiful to see the falls from so close DO NOT MISS OUT. Our guide Doris was super nice and the hotel was really nice and clean too, just a 5-10 min walk or so from the falls. my aunt and I had an amazing time

Kenny Yin is a great tour guide. Very responsible and passionate. It is a great tour. Very organized. I would recommend this tour.

Rex was a great tour guide. Overall it was a fantastic experience.

I really liked this tour. Our tour guide was Ray who was very particular about timing which is one thing I respect while traveling. The travel journey was very comfortable as the bus was spacious enough and well air conditioned. The attractions at Niagara very fabulous and Ray gave us all the information about the spots we visited. There were enough breaks for food and beverages and we managed to cover a lot of things in just 2 days. I highly recommend this tour.

It was an awesome experience. the weather was so nice. The lady guide explained us so carefully what was coming including the time . She was so nice and patient . The driver was very responsible and always on time

Had a wonderful trip. The Guide Caroline Zheng was very helpful and provided all the information in a very interesting way.We all had a nice time.Never felt we were with new group of people. Had excellent stay at Best Western Plus Hotel.Be prepared to explore the Glenn state park with your trekking shoes and a down walk of 1.5 miles.Have nice memories from this Trip.

We are an outbound tour operator from Bangladesh, we booked this tour for our client. After enjoying this tour our guest is very happy.and our client gives us a very good review.

I recommend this tour. Had very good experience, our tour guide Jupiter was very helpful!

I traveled on May 28th-May 29th to Niagara Falls. The trip was exceptional. We had a fabulous time. Everything was organized for us and it worked 100%, and the guide was full of knowledge, friendly and helpful. Our tour guide was Kenny Yin. He was "par excellence" and very friendly. Kenny kept everybody on clock and helped us all over tour and had really great sense of humor. It was like fully guided tour. His personality is genuine, and he is in tune with all his customers. I give him a 10*. He ensured that we were always informed of plans for the day and adjusted the schedule accordingly to ensure that we got the most out of our trip. The tour and the arrangements were great too. Bus was comfortable and Hotel accommodation was very good. Though it was a bit far from the falls. As far as the attractions go, I would highly recommend The Maid of the Mist. It is beautiful and breathtaking! Out of all the attractions. Watkins Glen State Park well worth a visit, beautiful scenery and an opportunity to stretch your legs after a long journey. Thundering Water Show colorful and informative. Old Fort is class and you will get to know the history of Niagara.

Excellent value trip - Watkins Glen State Park well worth a visit, beautiful scenery and an opportunity to stretch your legs after a long journey. Thundering Water Show colourful and informative. Accommodation good for the cost of the trip - comfy bed and good shower - all that was required. Whirlpool State Park and Old Fort Niagara interesting. Maid of the Mist - superb. An excellent itinerary. Be prepared for two long days travelling but well worth it. Hard Rock Cafe was better food than International Food Halls.

We had a wonderful trip, everything you organised for us worked 100%, and the guides were full of knowledge, friendly and helpful, Many many thanks for such a wonderful trip that has left us with amazing memories. Please pass on our thanks to 'Caroline Zheng' she is an absolute credit to your company. Sandeep K

The tour guide Helen Chen was very considerate and helping. We went for the Martha's Vineyard trip on May 21st and May 22nd, 2016. During out trip the ferry did not arrive at the port(Oak Bluffs) on time. So Helen immediately booked a bus and took us to the nearby port (Vineyard Haven). We loved the trip and greatly appreciate the service. Even the bus driver drove us safe through out the trip. We did not feel any jerks sitting in the bus :)

It was a wonderful trip and I will recommend the same to my friends

I am glad that I decided to take the bus trip to Niagara. It saved me the pain of driving alone all the way from NJ. Since this is arranged by experienced tour operators, it was the best utilization of the time and we covered many places we covered we wouldn't have covered otherwise. Lively and active tour guide Caroline made the journey quite pleasant. Overall, a good experience and I would certainly recommend this to my friends. One thing to note: Since credit cards are not accepted at most of food courts and attractions, be prepared with some cash. Min $100 to $150 per person. It would be good if that is notified while booking the tickets. Thanks, Bobby.

I took 2days Niagara Fall tour.Trip & hotel were good, however, our guide is not friendly and bit rude..well..I'm saying this on behalf of that group..sorry JH, u have to improve!!I will recommend this trip but with another guide please!:-)

It was overall awesome trip. * Accommodation was great- Nice and clean rooms with good service in Buffalo,Ny * Bus was good and clean Tour guide Ivan was pretty awesome and he kept everybody on clock and helped us all over tour,Ivan had really great sense of humour. It was like fully guided tour.Watkins glen was closed so we had seen Corning glass museum and coudnt get chance to be on Jet boat in Niagara coz it was very cold though Maid of mist was available.I recommend this tour- Had fun on trip..!!

my husband and I traveled on May 6th-May 7th to Niagara Falls. The trip was exceptional. We had a fabulous time. Our tour guides were Rex, and Kenny. Both of them did their job well. "par excellence". I agree, that it is better to bring your own food. The venues are overpriced, and do not give ample servings to warrant the costs. "par excellence". Rex is a "par excellence" representative for your company. His personality is genuine, and he is in tune with his customers. I give him a *10.

This trip was a really great experience and well worth the price. Our tour guide Simon was very friendly, patient and informative. He was highly organized and time efficient. He ensured that we were always informed as to what the plans were for the day and adjusted the schedule accordingly to ensure that we got the most out of our trip. As far as the attractions go, I would highly recommend The Maid of the Mist. It is beautiful and breathtaking! Out of all the attractions, I would say that the glass museum is one I could have skipped out on. Overall, I think the trip was really great and would highly recommend it. I would definitely do it again :)

The tour and the arrangements were great. Bus was comfortable and Hotel accommodation was very good. Though it was a bit far from the falls. Over all very nice experience at a reasonable Cost

Hello, I just want to ask If I need to apply for CANADIAN VISA for 2-Day Niagara Falls Tour from New York by Bus. I will visit NY with tourist visa. and planning to book this Niagra falls from New york pick up. Let me know if I need to apply canadian visa. many thanks, Joanna

we've taken several tours with this company and have come away happy and content :)

This is a good option if you want to spend sometime travelling with family and/or friends. Tour guide Max is good in communicating things.

Itinerary was changed without our knowledge as there was not Watkins park visit instead guide brought us to 1000 islands.

Awesome trip and a great view of Niagara Falls. Expected to take the Maid of the Mist boat cruise but instead the tour guide took us to the jet boat ride. Was looking forward to the Maid of the Mist tour so was a little disappointed there. But overall great trip and would highly recommend it.

I couldn't believe they let the dog travel with us. How did you know whether nobody would be allergic to it? The itinerary should have informed that we can't take a jet boat ride. The guide basically left us alone at attractions but overall the price itself is a good deal for transportation and hotel.

Although the bus was kinda uncomfortable we spend amazing two days. The tour guide max was very motivated and caring. Would recommend the tour in summer though.

Very good! Max Liang is awesome

It was amazing, I had a lot of fun, niagara falls are just beautiful. I completely recommend this tour, the bus, accommodation and attention were so good.

Tour very punctual on time .hotel arrangements very good Tour guide max very helpful and cheerful. Had a great time .recommend the tour strongly.

This tour was amazing. The tour guide was caring and knowledgeable about the attractions.

It was fantastic. The only issue was that Maid of the mist was closed for winter. Other than that the guide Dingding was awesome. Once in a lifetime experience. Thanks to TakeTours for making it possible. And lastly, the hotel was just amazing. Loved it 5/5.

Niagara Falls is a place that everyone should go at least one time in their lives. So I definitely encourage people to visit Niagara Falls. We went to perfect places and they were all enjoyable. Watkins Glen State Park and Maid of the Mist were two destinations and they were all good. If you go to Niagara Falls, don't ever miss going on Maid of the Mist because that is the one which makes you fall in love with Niagara Falls. The tour guides were friendly and the trip was very good.

The Niagara Falls are so beautiful! You have to see them once in your life! In the night they are colorfully lighted! The tour was really badly organized. We didn't get a time schedule before that we could decide which tour we wanted to do.. The tour guide wanted to sell us all tours by the argument, 'otherwise you have to stay outside in the cold weather when the other people take part'. That's why we payed too much money for something we didn't want to see. If we look back our plan had worked, just walking to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and watch the time the others made the jetboat tour. The bus was a little bit dirty and during the ride the reading light didn't work. If you wanted to see something, you have need your smart phone torch. But the hotel was very nice! We loved it!

I took this tour twice with different people and enjoyed completely both times. It is an incredible value for the price. We saw Fingerlakes and had an hotel room right in front of Niagara Falls. It was amazing to take a stroll and see the cascades a few hundred feet from us!

I had a two-day trip to Niagara Falls. Despite a not so good weather, our guide, Jennifer Huang, made it interesting and well organized. She gave us full information about the places visited, helped in solving certain problems. Jennifer is a very energetic and pleasant lady, so our group felt comfortable. Recommend specified tour that adorns guide Jennifer.

I must say that it was one of my most memorable trips where I spent quiet good time enjoying the waterfall.. the guide was helpful too.

I had booked this trip for my parents. They enjoyed the trip. The guide Jason was very much helpful in assisting my parents as they are elders. The driver was also good. Accommodation was pretty good too. They loved the beautiful journey to Niagara and was thrilled to experience the mighty Falls.

Good trip

The tour guide was good, though her Chinese accent was difficult initially to understand. The hotel room was good, however, we were not given any time for breakfast and even water is paid. The bus was not great, the seats were quite near to each other, so for long journeys it may give you backache or pain in the neck. The itinerary was good overall. Overall it is value for money trip, however don't forget you need to pay lot of cash on board for various entry fees and tips etc. so better you keep at least $200 cash per person.

Remember we were on tour and following the guide. Basic things were very much required in the bus, we need to spend 18 hours up and down traveling. Is management really look for traveler's comfort? Make sure you check the following in bus before you start traveling. Our guide was Rain, and she collected their fee properly but what about following which caused incontinence to travel? 1. Rest room of the bus was not working. 2. There is no cup or water bottle holder in bus. 3. There is no mobile charger plugs in bus. 4. There is no accurate information about Maid of the Mist, I traveled and was told by guide it was closed last week. Could not get the feel of trip.

I took this tour with friends. We met the tour guide whose name was Jenifer. She always guided places to us kindly, and when we asked her information she told us with a smile. We want to join another trip with her if we get to chance again.
