Cruise is amazing! The tour guide took us to visit the waterfall from all angles. The explanation was very clear, which saved us time and increased the enjoyment of the itinerary.

I appreciated getting an up close and personal experience and the history presented in the guided tour was actually nice. However I did not appreciate that we were not given options for parking. We had a terrible time finding parking and it was very far from the meet up spot and even further from the ending of the tour area. Super long walk and was given no info about other options that were clearly cheaper and closer. It was cold and we were wet and ended up having to Uber back to our car because we were freezing! That made the experinece far worse because we were miserable by the end of the tour. Also upon booking, it would have been nice to have more detailed info on what to wear. We assumed rain boots and rain coat but no we actually needed full rain or snow body suits. Our legs, jeans and down my boot into my socks were even wet. We were completely drenched, those cheap plastic ponchos didnt do anything. Overall 2.5/5 stars.

No regrets purchasing the tour! Actually I didn't realize I had booked a tour! Thought I had just bought tickets for the boat/tunnels... but super happy on how it turned out! Our guide was great, thanks Meesh!

We loved our guide Alisha. She had a great upbeat personality that made the tour more exciting. She gave a lot of good information regarding history and places to go or places to eat. We loved that the tour due to it hitting all the spots that we were interested in seeing. It would be a nice option for people that want to stay at the locations longer to pick an extended time tour. We liked the time frame we were at for each location but if we had an elderly person with us, I could see them wanting more time at each location or needing more time to get to the next location. We loved and will recommend to family and friends in the future.
