Over The Falls with Dale's Kool Kats

Dale's Kool Kats, very friendly and knowlegeable. The personal aspect from his time with the company made for a lasting impact. I dont think the experience could have been any better. Me and the wife went for our 6th Anniversary and couldnt have enjoied it more. We saved money by directly booking through the website. Crowd sizes were very small and our wait times were almost non existant. The first or second week of October is perfect for your visit, the weather really worked out for us.

Legendary Lenny is the Best!

Legendary Lenny is right up there with the best of the tour guides we’ve had on our vacations. His bus is clean and comfortable. As we were going to the Maid of the Mist, Whirlpool Park, and Goat Island for the Cave of the Winds, Lenny gave us great background info above and beyond the normal touristy stuff with good humor and guided us to the attractions well. Because the tour was long, he stopped at DiCamilli’s at lunchtime for excellent sandwiches, coffee, and pastries. If we could give Legendary Lenny 6 stars, we would.

Niagara Falls tour

We had an amazing experience on the Over the Falls American Side Tour! It was a perfect way to see Niagara Falls without worrying about transportation, tickets, parking, or figuring out the best order to visit everything. Our guide, Lenny, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, funny, organized, and made the entire day feel easy and enjoyable. He shared great history and stories about Niagara Falls, kept the group on schedule, and made sure everyone knew where to go and what to expect at each stop. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and his energy made the tour even better. The American side is absolutely breathtaking, especially getting close to the Falls and experiencing the power of the water firsthand. This tour is a great choice for anyone visiting Niagara Falls for the first time or anyone who wants to make the most of their time there. Highly recommend Over the Falls Tours—and if you get Lenny as your guide, you are in great hands!
