Tips for a Small-Group Niagara Falls Tour with Winter Activity in Toronto

Are you planning a visit to Toronto and want to combine it with an amazing Niagara Falls tour? If so, you’re in the right place! A small-group Niagara Falls tour with winter activity in Toronto is the perfect way to get the most of your Canadian getaway. And while this activity is available year round, winter is a particularly great time to embark on it. Keep reading to find out why, and get tips on how to make the most of your experience.

Why Go on a Small-Group Niagara Falls Tour?

A small-group tour gives you access to a more intimate, personalized experience than larger group tours. In addition, with a small-group tour, you’ll enjoy more chances to interact with your guide and ask questions as you explore. Finally, not only will you get the benefit of having a knowledgeable guide on hand, but you’ll also likely be able to travel faster—and take advantage of more sites—than if you were embarking on the tour alone.

Combining a Niagara Falls Tour with Winter Activity in Toronto

Toronto is an exciting city year round, and is particularly appealing during the winter months. By combining your Niagara Falls tour with winter activity in Toronto, you’ll be able to explore the city’s beautiful wintery attractions—and also enjoy the breathtaking sight that is Niagara Falls during its most majestic season.

Tours That Include Winter Activity in Toronto

There are a number of tours that include a small-group Niagara Falls tour with winter activity in Toronto, such as this spectacular day-long tour. On this tour, you’ll be able to explore all of the magical sites that both Toronto and Niagara Falls have to offer. The day begins with an early morning pickup, which means you’ll get a chance to admire the city’s sights while it’s still cloaked in a blanket of morning light. You’ll then be treated to a wonderful winter activity in Toronto, such as skating at Nathan Phillips Square, taking part in a tobogganing adventure at Riverdale Park East, or even visiting the Christmas market at Toronto Eaton Centre.

After braving the cold and taking part in Toronto’s winter activities, you’ll hop in the van for another sightseeing excursion—this one heading to Niagara Falls. Enjoy a two-hour coach ride through Niagara as your guide narrates the area’s history and shows points of interest along the way. You’ll stop for lunch at Skylon Tower and then enjoy an hour of exploration along York County’s historic streets. Finally, you’ll arrive at the Falls around 2 pm—which is right when the afternoon light starts to cast its magical spell. Witness up close the power of nature as you make your way up beside the Horseshoe Falls and marvel at their ethereal beauty.

And if you’re feeling brave, take advantage of the interactive Journey Behind the Falls experience by taking a walk along the tunnel beneath the actual falls.

Conclude your winter adventure in Ontario by stopping at some additional points of interest en route back to Toronto—like breathtaking views of Niagara-on-the-lake, visits to internationally renowned wineries, and much more.

You can book this tour (and many others!) online or with your local travel agent. I recommend GetYourGuide for online booking; their website offers an enormous selection of small-group Niagara Falls tours with winter activity in Toronto, including this one.

Tips for Enjoying Your Tour

To ensure you have an amazing experience on your Toronto/Niagara Falls tour, here are some tips:

  • Dress warmly and make sure you bring waterproof clothing items for exploring along the falls.
  • It’s also a good idea to bring gloves and hats.
  • Bring snacks and an empty water bottle along for easy refueling throughout the day.
  • Bring extra cash for potential souvenirs.
  • Pack comfortable shoes (avoid high heels!) for walking between attractions.
  • Let your guide know if there’s anything special about your day-long experience.
  • Make sure to properly plan/prepare for any photography excursions.
