Your day, step by step

Your boat tour from Richmond Hill

A private tour — the driver waits at every stop, so the day runs on your clock, from pickup in Richmond Hill to the soaking at the foot of the Horseshoe aboard Niagara City Cruises.

  1. 01

    Door-to-door pickup

    Your chauffeur collects you at your Richmond Hill address and stows your bags — you travel together, so there's no parking to find at the busiest attraction in Ontario.

  2. 02

    The drive to the river

    About 110 minutes down the QEW and onto the Niagara Parkway, arriving at Table Rock above the Horseshoe Falls.

  3. 03

    Board Niagara City Cruises

    Walk to the Niagara City Cruises dock (the Canadian-side boat — the same soaked-at-the-Horseshoe voyage as the US Maid of the Mist, no passport). You buy your ~CA$48 ticket at the gate; your driver waits.

  4. 04

    The Voyage to the Falls

    The ~20-minute sail carries you past the American Falls to the thundering basin of the Horseshoe — ponchos on, the real reason you came.

  5. 05

    The ride home

    Dry off, and the same chauffeur returns you to Richmond Hill — no traffic stress, no post-soak drive.

Private Niagara boat-tour day trips from Richmond Hill

Richmond Hill sits high on the Oak Ridges Moraine, so a Niagara day starts downhill — we collect you door-to-door along the Bayview corridor, off Yonge Street, or up in Oak Ridges near Lake Wilcox. Many bookings here are multigenerational: grandparents, parents and kids sharing one vehicle instead of caravanning three cars down the QEW. Whether you gather near Mill Pond or Richmond Green, one flat price covers the whole party — Sedan CA$580, SUV CA$820, Van CA$1,240 for the six-hour day.

From Richmond Hill we usually drop onto Highway 404, then swing west along the 407 ETR to skip the Don Valley crawl and the downtown Gardiner altogether. That gives us a clean line to the QEW and the Niagara-bound lakeshore — roughly 110 minutes and 150 kilometres each way from your driveway. Your chauffeur waits on-site the whole visit, so there is no meter running, no parking hunt near Clifton Hill, and no rush for a return coach.

At the gorge you buy your own tickets at the gate — we are transport only and never resell admission. The Canadian-side boat is Niagara City Cruises, about CA$48 plus HST with no passport, and its 20-minute Voyage to the Falls noses into the Horseshoe mist — pack a dry shirt. We stay on the Ontario side all day, never the U.S. Maid of the Mist, and after dark the free illumination glows nightly while seasonal fireworks light the sky near 10 p.m.

Flat rates · per vehicle · 13% HST included

One price for the whole vehicle — never per person.

The rate covers the car, the chauffeur, the fuel and the waiting time. Attraction admissions and meals are bought at each gate, so you only pay for what you choose. Nothing is charged to reserve.

Straight answers

Richmond Hill → Niagara: your questions

How long is the drive from Richmond Hill to Niagara Falls?

About 110 minutes each way (150 km) via the QEW and Niagara Parkway, traffic depending. Your chauffeur tracks conditions and times the pickup so you arrive relaxed.

Do you pick up anywhere in Richmond Hill?

Yes — any Richmond Hill address: home, hotel, office or a specific landmark. Door-to-door both ways, with no extra charge for the pickup within the area.

Is the Maid of the Mist on the Canadian side?

The Maid of the Mist departs from the US side and needs a passport. On the Canadian side the equivalent boat is Niagara City Cruises — the same voyage to the foot of the Horseshoe Falls, and the boat our tours use. No passport, no border crossing.

Do you sell the boat tickets?

No — we're a transport service. We drive you to the dock and wait; you buy your Niagara City Cruises ticket (about CA$48 + HST) directly at the gate. That keeps our price honest and lets you skip the boat if the weather turns.

Will I get wet on the boat?

Yes — that's the point. The boat sails into the spray at the base of the Horseshoe Falls. A recyclable poncho is provided at the dock, but expect a refreshing soak.

Is the price per person or per vehicle?

Per vehicle. One flat rate covers the whole car with 13% HST included — the boat ticket is separate and paid at the gate.

When does the boat run?

Niagara City Cruises operates roughly late April through November, weather permitting. Outside that season we still run the day tour to the Falls; the boat simply isn't sailing.
