15 Canada Dinner Cruises Worth Booking

1.Niagara Falls Day and Evening Tour With Boat Cruise & Dinner (optional)

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 787 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $111Our pick

Travel from downtown Toronto to Niagara Falls for a day-and-night outing with a Hornblower cruise, illuminated falls, seasonal fireworks, Niagara-on-the-Lake stops, and optional Sheraton buffet dinner. Guides such as Ali, Johnny, and Dwayne have earned praise, but timing, vehicle comfort, and winter cruise availability can vary.

“Good tour! Everything on time, good driver Nikola. But at booking ut was said there would be a bus with the bathroom and wi-fi, in fact the bus was small and didn't have the listed commodities. Moreover the space for legs was pretty tight, I felt uncomfortable. But still the tour itself is really great, I saw the falls, took a boat trip, had dinner at Sheraton and saw the fireworks over Niagara Falls - incredible! If you take this tour - wear flipflops for the boat, it's really wet!!! You literally will take a shower in the waterfall and this plastic poncho won't save you! but it's fun.”

“Our server on board the Cavalier Maxim was very attentive to our dietary restrictive needs. There was live music - a wonderful lady played her harp during dinner and after dinner there was a DJ and guests were invited onto the dance floor. There was a variety of music which included Latin music. This was very much appreciated, but being from the Caribbean it would have been nice to hear some calypso and/or reggae. However, this did not detract us (2 women in our late 60's) from having a good time. I got to practice my French with a couple of amazing passengers.”
