Chris was a fabulous guide! It was interesting to see the falls from behind and take in the sheer power, visit the whirlpool, flower clock, maple syrup tasting, and seeing the falls up close on the boat. Chris was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Chris was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and the tour was so thought out with perfect timing and we avoided some of the chaos and lines. Highly recommended!
Chris is absolutely legendary! There’s no better. Born &bred locally there is nothing he does not know about the falls and area. Well spoken, interesting stats /facts well organised, balanced tour. Good personality. Outstanding!
On our recent trip to Niagara Falls, we booked Go With The Flow Tours and we are so glad we did. Chris, our tour guide, picked us up at our hotel on time, and was very knowledgeable and friendly. He organized the tour so we moved from one attraction to the next seamlessly with no lineups! In between locations, he shared lots of information on the area, making the tour very enjoyable and informative. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great guide, and an itinerary that hits all the highlights.
Chris was right on time to pick us up! He was very personable and laid back. Every stop went smoothly. Great driver and storyteller!
Chris was an excellent guide and everything worked out perfectly. Apart from the Falls, Chris gave us a guided tour with plenty of stops for photo opportunities
Our tour guide, Chris, was knowledgeable and informative, sharing helpful insights throughout the experience. Visiting multiple attractions was seamless and well organized, making the tour easy and enjoyable.
The guide and the tour was amazing. The guide was very knowledgeable, courteous and best guide that we ever had with viator
Really enjoyed our tour with Chris. An easy start and finish from our hotel. The tour had all the different experiences of the Falls, was well paced, and informative without being over-bearing. Would definitely recommend this tour. Thanks again Chris.
It was top notch our guide was very informative and friendly made the experience more memorable. Would recommend to anyone looking to go around and learn and see Niagara Falls.
Nothing short of amazing! Our guide was the best. We saw the Falls from many different points. Would highly recommend.
If I could give Chris and Go With The Flow Tours more than five stars, I absolutely would! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From the moment I scheduled our tour, Chris was communicative, friendly, and professional. He picked my husband and me up right from our hotel, as well as the other couple joining our small-group tour, and from that moment on, we knew we were in for a great experience. Our tour included Journey Behind the Falls, Skylon Tower, a boat cruise into the Falls, and a maple syrup tasting — and Chris made the entire day seamless. He was extremely knowledgeable about Niagara Falls, its history, and the surrounding area, sharing so many interesting facts and stories along the way. What really made the experience special, though, was Chris himself. He was personable and professional, but also so warm and down-to-earth that before long, we were laughing and joking together like old friends. He personally took us to each attraction, helped us avoid long lines whenever possible, and made sure we had plenty of time to truly enjoy each experience. We never felt rushed. He even offered to take photos of us throughout the day so we could capture some of our best memories together. At the end of the tour, Chris dropped each couple back off at our respective hotels, completing what was truly an amazing experience from beginning to end. My husband and I honestly could not have asked for a better tour or a better guide. Chris and Go With The Flow Tours are TOP TIER! If you're visiting Niagara Falls and want a small-group experience that feels personal, relaxed, informative, and incredibly well organized, BOOK THIS TOUR! You will not be disappointed. And Chris — if we ever make our way back to Niagara Falls, we'd happily Go With The Flow all over again! 😊 Highly, highly recommended!
Chris is an excellent tour guide. He seamlessly took us from one spot to the next. The whole time filling us with info and stories. I would do this again just to listen and hopefully remember it all. It was also our 1st experience in Niagara so gave us a great lay of the land before we went out on our own.
The tour was a lot of fun and the guide was very knowledgeable about the local area and history. He gave us useful tips on getting the best experience on each of the attractions that we visited. I would definitely book this tour again.
This was a great excursion and perfect for our first full day in Niagara Falls. Chris Doerwald picked us up right on time at the designated spot in a very nice Mercedes van. Chris, a Niagara native, was very friendly, professional, easy to talk with and loaded with great information. He talked about the history of the river, falls, environment, engineering and the sights…no shortage of interesting topics. We hit all the spots on the tour, he had our tickets in hand and walked us through the crowds to the starting points. Super easy to see the Falls, boat ride under the Falls, observation tower, whirlpool and get the lay of the land with a historical perspective. This was a great tour and Chris was terrific. We took some business cards to share with friends interested in a Niagara Trip. What a way to start our first day in Niagara Falls. Thanks Chris!
Chris was the BEST!! Right on time, shared information and history about the area and the falls. Took us right to where we needed to go for everything. Amazing experience and Chris made it so easy. Highly recommended!!
Decided to do a last minute trip to Niagara Falls from Rochester. Had no idea what tours/excursions were available. Found Go With the Flow tour online and liked the idea of a small group tour vs a big tour bus. Set up the tour and had a text confirming our pick up within 24 hours of booking. Chris met us right on time and we ended up with a private tour! He had all our tickets for each excursion ready to go and walked us up to right where we needed to be. It took all the stress of not knowing where to go out of the equation. Great tour, highly recommend!
Chris our tour guide was beyond excellent. He was so personable and enjoyable. We never felt rushed. He was great!
This was such a fantastic tour experience!!! We got the whole 9. Our guide was so kind and knowledgeable. He knew to stand to the right on the boat. He walked us right in to go behind the falls. He had all the different facts and fun stuff all ready to go. What a fantastic top notch experience. The van was very comfortable clean and nice. Our belongings we very safe in the van and I felt like we were in good hands.
Wow, Chris was awesome. It was one of our best tours. I would do it again. It was so nice to have someone pick us up and drop back off at the hotel. Plus Chris gave us some great tips. Great job Chris we love you and your beautiful country.
Van arrived on time. Chris showed us Niagara from all possible angles, we had a lot of fun, and we learnt a lot as well! My kid had a blast asking stuff and joking around. We were there with an American couple and we all had a blast. Highly recommend this! Thanks you Chris!
Very personable, professional and knowledgeable guide. Perfect range of tour stops/activities, good overall duration.
Wonderful experience with Chris He was a wonderful tour guide and very accommodating Highly recommend
This was an excellent way to experience Niagara Falls from every angle. The tour guide was from Niagara, knowledgeable, fun, and flexible. It felt like visiting a friend and having him show you around his favorite places. I highly recommend it!
This was the best tour we’ve ever taken! Chris was amazing and very knowledgeable. He made sure we had enough time everywhere we went and enjoyed ourselves!
Chris was an awesome tour guide and we had a great time. He was very knowledgeable and personable . I highly recommend this tour, you won’t be disappointed!
10/10 for this tour. Great way to see the city in a short amount of time. The syrup tasting was the cherry on top.
Best time in Niagara Falls with this small group. The guide was a local and very informative. Would recommend
We absolutely loved this tour! There was only 6 of us and the driver/guide was incredible!!!! We saw all of the highlights and the boat cruise was the best!
We had a great day in the falls with Chris. We saw everything in a short amount of time. We will recommend him in the future.
Local run, small business. Very knowledgeable, informative, and super friendly! Takes you right up to the entrance of all the attractions and tells you where to go and what to expect. 10/10 would recommend.
We really enjoyed this tour. The tour guide was exceptionally friendly, accommodating and informative. We would definitely recommend this tour company to family and friends. Thanks for the wonderful time.
Chris was excellent. The tour was amazing and we didn’t have to wait in line for tickets at any of the stops. The other group had canceled and we were the only ones on the trip. We had plenty of time on each of the stops, took pictures and even purchased souvenirs. Chris gave us lots of info even other places to visit. He is a native so had great knowledge of the Niagara Falls and the surrounding areas. He picked us up a little early and dropped us off a little later so we have more time on the tour. He gave us all the history of the area and more so. Really recommend this tour and the company. Thanks Chris !! We had a fantastic day.
Chris is a great tour guide with lots of knowledge on the Niagara Falls. You will enjoy the whole or half a day you spend with him. Including short visits to shops to get a good taste of the wonderful maple syrup. You will not regret booking this almost private tour!
This was the perfect tour because it covered everything you could want to do at Niagra Falls. The tour guide Chris was very knowledgeable about the area and the falls. In addition, he allowed us just enough time in each area.
Martine was the perfect guide! She obviously loves the falls and was happy to share that love with us. Everything was perfectly organized and we actually got to see more things than expected. She gave us great advice for how to make the most of each attraction. Her stories were fun and interesting and her personality and energy were excellent. The van was clean, spacious and comfortable. One suggestion for the tour company would be to supply a small bottle of water for each guest.
We had a great experience on this tour. Our tour guide, Chris, owns the company and is from the area. He knows a lot about the history of the area, technology, culture and anything else you might have questions about. He's warm and friendly and took us everywhere. He provided great tips and took beautiful pictures of us. We couldn't have asked for better. We highly recommend this tour.
Go with the flow guide Chris was exceptional! Great tour, easy trip. Well worth the money.
Even though it’s raining we still have a good time. Chris, owner and driver takes care of everything.
Knowledgeable personable guide with a small group made it a great experience. We would highly recommend.
Great experience with this company. Pick up was smooth and we appreciated the extra perks at each venue we had because we were on a tour — shorter lines were a bonus and the small group size of our tour (6 total) was an added benefit. Chris was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of interesting facts about the area. He expertly guided us from location to location providing us with tid bits of info along the way. Highly recommend!
Our tour guide, Chris, was amazing! He was knowledgeable, funny and gave us the best advice! I have already recommended the tour and Chris to friends!
Our guide Robbie was knowledgeable, engaging and fun. He was on time, had all of our tickets repurchased and got us around in the comfortable of his van. Well done!
Had a great tour with Chris. Very informative and helpful. Would highly recommend Chris for a great Niagara Falls tour .
Robby was a great guide with all kinds of fun information. He was timely and flexible. Highly recommend as a great way to get to different places easily.
Chris was very informative and everything was well organised. There was great communication before tour started with times to be picked up. A small group environment which allowed us to stick together and enjoy the experience together.
This was one of the best tours we’ve ever taken! Chris was fantastic! He was knowledgeable about the area, answered all questions my group had and gave us fun facts along the way! He dropped us off at each location and gave us plenty of time to see the sights! He was so kind and respectful and hilarious! We shared a van with 2 other small families and over the few hours we all got to know each other! It was so enjoyable and would absolutely recommend to anyone! We were able to see the falls from all sides and from above! It was perfect! Sights seen: -journey behind the falls -Skylon tower -boat tour -whirlpool -floral clock -maple syrup tasting We couldn’t have asked for a better tour!
Great tour! Chris was awesome! We had an awesome time
Everything about this tour was top notch. Chris was extremely helpful and had a vast knowledge of The Falls. We would highly recommend!
I had a hard time deciding which tour to book for our trip, but this is THE ONE YOU WANT. Everything was smooth and easy and all of the planning was taken out of my hands and we go to see everything. Our guide grew up in the area and was very informative on the history of Niagara and the area around it as well. I would definitely recommend this tour!!
