Niagara Falls holidays

A breathtaking example of natures beauty

Niagara Falls needs no introduction and has to be seen to be believed! Located east of Toronto which is around two hours away, it is one of Canada’s most popular attractions and it's easy to see why. With almost 4 million cubic feet of water falling over the crest line every minute and with a width of roughly 2,600 feet, they are truly breath taking. Take a journey on the Maid of the Mist and huddle under your poncho as the spray is immense but the experience, is extraordinary.
