Fun trip to the Falls We had a wonderful experience with our guide Mark. I loved the American side! It was situated in a beautiful state park rather than the casino and hotel side of Canada. The best part was Maid of the Mist…. Thank goodness we had ponchos. The tour was very well planned and organized and educational as far as Buffalo history. I would definitely recommend and it was nice not having to worry about navigating the tours and parking on our own.
