Marni had lots of information to share about Tesla, the hydro plants, both retired and operational. She had enough information to satisfy my engineer husband.

Marni was awesome! She was very friendly and knowledgeable! She even gave us options on the direction of our tour and made sure we didnt miss any special experiences!

Tim was a great wealth of knowledge and told us unknown facts about Niagara Falls. I also like the fact that he was a WPT Champion. Be prepared to walk a lot so wearing comfortable footwear is a must.
