We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the hydroelectric plant and up the Skylon Tower. Our tour guide Deanna was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Excellent excursion.

Tour was absolutely excellent tour guide was friendly knowledgeable. The power plant itself is amazing a technological marvel of its time. Well preserved the tunnel is very cool and the view of the falls from the bottom is awesome. Absolutely highly recommend this tour.

Theresa and I thought the Falls walk was great. Phil was knowledgeable, spoke loud enough, and kept the group together. There was one person that probably wasn't prepared for the hills and the powerhouse tunnel. I do not recall a disclaimer on the registration site but one might need to be updated if not.

We had Deanna and she was knowledgeable, friendly and kind. We loved our walking tour and learnt a lot. Walking away with knowing the area with Deanna's help made the trip so much better. We didn't realise Niagara was more than just the waterfall. Thank you Deanna
