What you will do at the falls

From the middle of downtown the coach reaches the falls in about 90 minutes, giving you 3 to 4 hours of free time plus skip-the-line attraction packages. Popular picks:

• Niagara City Cruises (Hornblower) boat ride - included in the CA$159 day tour package.
• Journey Behind the Falls - the tunnels behind the waterfall, included in the CA$209 package.
• Skylon Tower and the Niagara Falls helicopter tour - optional add-ons you can book on tour day.
• Free time for Clifton Hill, Table Rock and the falls viewpoints, plus a 35 minute maple syrup and chocolate stop on the way.

When the tour drops you back

Drop-off back at Yonge-Dundas Square is between 5:00 and 5:30 pm, in the middle of downtown's evening buzz. From there it is the same 8 minute walk back to your hotel.

Before and after your tour around Grand Hotel & Suites Toronto

The Grand's rooftop terrace overlooks the east downtown skyline, a quiet spot after the tour. Jarvis Street's Victorian mansions line the 8 minute morning walk west, and the tour drop-off leaves time for the rooftop hot tubs before dinner.

Private tours from Grand Hotel & Suites Toronto

Groups, families and corporate outings can skip the coach entirely: a private tour from your hotel starts at Grand Hotel & Suites Toronto's door, runs on your schedule with your own guide, and is quoted in full within 12 hours.

Pickup FAQ

Does the tour pick up at the hotel directly?

Scheduled tours stop at Dundas Square (279 Yonge St), a 8 minute walk away, rather than at the door. A private tour can pick you up directly at your address.

What time should I leave the hotel?

Day tour pickup is at 7:55 am. Leave about 18 minutes before, so you arrive 15 minutes early. The coach stops briefly at each point and cannot wait.

Where can I get coffee before the 7:55 am pickup?

The Tim Hortons and cafes around Yonge-Dundas Square open early; give yourself 5 extra minutes on weekends.

What if I am running late?

Call or WhatsApp us at +1 416-792-7968 as soon as you can and we will tell you the best option, which is sometimes catching the coach at its next pickup point.

What is the cheapest way to get to Niagara Falls from downtown Toronto?

The honest answer is the GO Train with a WEGO combo, CA$22 on weekends and CA$34 on weekdays in 2026. It takes about 2 hours each way and Niagara Falls GO Station sits 2 km from the falls. Our CA$99 day tour from Dundas Square trades a few dollars for a direct 90 minute coach, a licensed guide, and Whirlpool and Parkway stops the train skips.

Do I need a passport for a Niagara Falls tour?

No passport needed. The tour stays entirely on the Canadian side, there is no border crossing, and regular photo ID is all you carry.

Is it better to see Niagara Falls during the day or at night?

Day is for the boat and the mist, evening is for the lights, with fireworks on select summer nights. Both depart from Dundas Square: 7:55 am for the day tour, 1:15 pm in summer or 12:10 pm in winter for the evening tour.
