Great tour ! The tour guide was entertaining, knowledgeable and very friendly. We got big portions of food and a drink at every stop! Highly recommend for locals and tourists alike. I hope the Griffon will become a stop on the tour!!

The Roaming Food Tour was fun and educational. Our guide told us interesting facts and stories about the restaurants as well as the city of Lewiston. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and drinks that we returned to Lewiston 2 more times on our trip to Niagara Falls.

Obviously you pay way more money to take this tour, than to do these destinations on your own, Pros and Cons? Certainly. Pros: -They pick you up at either your hotel, or a designated area. -You get to go to the highlight spots without having to purchase separate tickets. -You do not have to pay for parking, or attempt to find parking for each of the attractions. -Border crossing could not be more easy. Cons: -You may not get to spend as much time, or you may spend too much time for you, at each of the attractions. -You are tied to a group, so part of the pace of you journey is tied to the others you are bundled with. -The "Lunch" stop. Yes you can pack your own, you can purchase at the designated spot which has a store and a Maple Syrup tasting, but clearly this is a designated tourist trap and of course the stop here was quite long. -The sign in the front of the van to "Tip your drivers, that 20% is customary as this is how they make the majority of their wages"

From the moment he greeted us, Nick brought incredible energy, humor, and deep knowledge of the area that kept us engaged the entire time. He made the history of the Falls come alive with fun facts, personal stories, and even some great photo tips. He was super patient, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable and included. You can tell he loves what he does -- and it shows! Nick didn't just guide us, he hosted us like we were family. My family and I walked away not just with amazing memories, but with a new appreciation for the beauty and power of Niagara Falls all thanks to Nick. Don't think twice. Book the tour, and if you get Nick, you're in for a treat! #TeamNick

Even if Aunt Jemima hadn't been cancelled a few years ago, I'd probably be officially switching to…read morereal maple syrup after this excursion. One of my cousins has a bit of an obsession with natural sweeteners and scheduled a trip to White Meadows for us last weekend. It was a bit of a drive from our Finger Lakes Airbnb that involved a literal border crossing, but honestly was worth the trek. I wasn't sure what to expect beyond a deluge of maple leaf signs/flags, but I definitely left with an appreciation of the insane amount of work required to make this without using mass-produced corn syrup. We'd scheduled a tour, subsequent syrup tasting and charcuterie board for a 1:30pm start time. Not knowing what drama we might encounter at the border (there was absolutely none - deliciously uneventful; this isn't the border anyone gets particularly riled up about), we got here super early and had ample time to look around the gift shop. I barely considered the implications of the tariffs and didn't bother buying any maple syrup - understandably when I went to the farm's website later, it indicated they're not shipping to the US right now. That decision will haunt me for weeks and maybe months to come. Our guide was Nathan, who was an absolute superstar. I can't recommend this guy highly enough. He was engaging and knew how to talk about the science and concepts behind maple syrup and its cultivation on the farm in a way that was easily digestible but also very in-depth and informative. We were in a pretty inquisitive group, and he fielded a myriad of questions ably; I also liked that once or twice, he didn't know the answer and just said that - sadly a rarity in this day and age. But that didn't happen very often; Nathan knows maple syrup. The tour consists of a 10 to 15-minute discussion in one of the prep rooms near the gift shop (where most of the equipment and technical terminology is broken down), followed by a 10-minute tractor ride to the woods on the other side of the property to the tree-tapping area where the majority of the tour takes place, followed by a ride back to the starting point and a five-minute tasting of the four syrups made on the farm. One piece of constructive feedback - there were several young children there who were honestly a bit of a distraction. This is probably school age kid friendly but there were some very antsy toddlers (and even an infant) who just weren't old enough for this. I'd put a disclaimer up on the website that this isn't really appropriate for pups that young so the parents know ahead of time not to bother booking it. It is really wild seeing how much goes into creating maple syrup on a mom-and-pop farm like this. The intricate weaving of the taps/tubes throughout the forest leading to a storage tank out of site, and seeing how aggressive you have to be to take advantage of the very narrow window that sap can be harvested? Had no idea. If nothing else, you'll definitely come away from this being blown away by the syrup trade and the immense work required. You just never think about this stuff when you're at the diner pouring (not real) syrup onto your pancakes. The tasting and charcuterie were really good too - if you're already here, I'd spring for the charcuterie so you can sample the syrups and assorted meats/cheeses on a grander scale than just the tasting. The only annoying part were the yellowjackets constantly trying to get in on the fun (which I found out in Canada are more commonly referred to as wasps). I honestly have no idea how they can fix or alleviate that issue since by definition you're putting sweet/sugary stuff out on picnic tables, but might be worth troubleshooting down the line. Absolutely would recommend if you happen to be in the general Upstate NY area and have your passport handy. But make sure you actually buy the syrup there - I have no idea when I'm going to get a chance to sup on the Golden grade of syrup again.

Had such a great experience here! We got the full charcuterie experience and we it was so good. The…read morestaff was sooooo friendly and such a cute little farm. Would highly suggest

Whirlpool Jet Boat Tour is an incredible experience and you will be soaked from head to toe! This…read moreis my third visit this season and fourth visit overall and the ride always serve major thrills. I've been with and without my kids. If your kids are under 100lbs, they cannot sit in the first four rows. Without kids, I've sat in the first row. The waves hit you a lot harder when sitting in the first row. By the fifth row, you get less of the hit, although it depends on your jet operator. The entire ride is 45m long. You have to arrive 45m before your ride time to check in and attend a short briefing. You can then decide if you want to put on the poncho and/or pants. The poncho does not mean that you won't get wet, because you will. It only acts as a thin barrier between you and the wind. If it's a hot humid day, I would opt out of the poncho. Once everyone has their life jackets on and are seated in the jet, it starts off slow and scenic with some commentary on the Canadian and US power plants. You will experience The Devil's Hole Class V Rapids 4 or 5 times - the waves hit you like a brick wall! It's best to put anything that you don't want to lose in the pouch in front of you (glasses, sunglasses, hat, phones, etc). You can see people along the way as you can hike down to the river. The tour also takes you to see the Class VI rapids, but you can't go through it without incurring a $200K fine. I highly recommend this jet tour experience. My kids are 7&9 and they thoroughly enjoyed this exhilarating ride. Remember to wear water shoes and you'll most definitely lose your flip flops. Wear your bathing suits and bring a towel and change of clothes - you will get wet!!

I had to call to check if there was an earlier time slot available and was able to get in so if your desired time is not available just give them a call. We were seated in the front row and when they you will get wet, they mean that. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an adventure. We didn't have a car so we took an uber. The dock is located in a neighborhood so might be a little hard to take public transportation. Don't forget to get the pictures! They also create a video of the whole tour! You can also bring your own camera/gopro/phone(if you're risky). I had my insta360 with me and i used it during the first round on the whirpool.

I found the Underground Railroad tour in Buffalo and immediately booked. Why did I book? For starts, it's a 3 hour tour learning about one of the most historic and unknown aspects of American history. It is extremely well priced for the convenience and intimacy of the tour. You're picked up at the Underground Railroad Historic Museum (free parking is a bonus) and you're met by Kevin (dressed in period clothing including a dope top hat). He drives you to the key areas of Buffalo that were critical to the Underground Railroad. We had a very diverse tour group and Kevin made us feel comfortable to ask questions and to interact with our group. One of the best parts of the tour was going to an actual "station" on the Underground Railroad. It's a 300 year-old barn organically owned by McClew family who were "conductors" on the Underground Railroad. You get to experience the barn where many people were housed, fed, and clothed on their journey to Canada. After this experience 've become a Motherland C groupie! Kevin (the owner) could be a history professor (watch out, Dr. Gates!) with his knowledge and passion of American history and the history of Western New York (he's a Buffalo native). Kevin even gave great recommendations for shops, food and hotels for the Toronto leg of our trip. They offer a variety of tours so make sure to check out their website to get their schedule.

Turns out we were the only ones on the tour today, so it was a wonderful, personal experience with an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide named Kevin Cottrell.

I really like how the folks who organized the tour make it a point to talk to all the folks in the group to try and get to know where everyone is from and a little about the family. It felt personable and not like you're another body on their tour but that they genuinely want to know where their "guests " are from; not just another customer. I would recommend their tour to anyone looking to do one. Maid of the mist was the coolest experience! What a view of all the falls. Would recommend a camera with a handle of some sort. Horseshoe falls was windy and wet! I was worried about dropping my phone. A lot of people start pushing to get to the railing of the ship. Not everyone on the boat is from your tour group. We got on the boat and stood by the side rail of the boat to get the view. My son and I were standing there by ourselves and people start filling in. As you get close to the falls people push you out of the way to try and squeeze in to get their photo. We were literally pushed out of the way. Hence the reason I was worried about dropping my phone. Cave of the winds also an experience but not what I was expecting. Maybe I didn't do my research but, I thought it was something different. The staircase down to the falls was pretty cool, you really get a glimpse of how powerful the falls are. You're right up there next to the American fall, it was very wet and windy. I got a little nervous, if you drop anything, it's gone. Hard to take pictures with hurricane force winds and the amount of water coming at you. Definitely suggest a camera with some sort of a handle or something. Saw a certificate in a gift shop that said I survived the hurricane winds of cave of the winds...had I have known it was going to be what it was I might have chosen not to do this part of the tour. But at the same time it was a pretty cool experience. I have no regrets doing it, just wasn't expecting to get blasted and soaked by the falls!
