I really enjoyed the trip with my parents. I had booked a different tour with them previously, it was also good, but I will recommend this tour as the hotel stay is close to the Niagara. Our tour guide was a friendly person. My parents are strict veg and our guide was kind enough to help us locate veg food options. When you have cooperative staff with you it really makes a huge difference.

We got in on the last minute booking. Very happy as we had been trying for several days to book 2 seats. Had an enjoyable time on this tour. The tour guide was very funny and had a good voice. Humor on board was good and I got 85% percent of the jokes.

My third time on The tour to Niagara Falls. If you\'re in Boston this is a must! It\'s an interactive experience through the Niagara Falls. The only issue I had was the cramped seats that\'s why only four stars. But it is fun, you\'re enjoy it.

We took 2-Day Boston to Niagara falls In-Depth Tour with Golden Tour Bus in last June. It was a memorable tour indeed. It was a group of around 30 people and the condition of the bus we traveled was fairly good. Our tour guide Mr. Jay Zhuo was so nice, responsible and caring through out the journey. T

The best thing we loved about that tour is the tour guide. Our tour guide was really a great guy. He was very helpful and very professional yet so friendly and funny at the same time. Our bus was clean and comfortable though there was no bathroom available so we had to stop for breaks, the hotels were really clean and comfortable. I really would like to thank Golden bus tours for organizing that tour , it was a great 2 day vacation for us.
