My wife surprised me with their 3 Hour Tour. it included: 35 Min per car - Nissan GT-R, BMW i8, Mercedes AMG GTS, Lamborghini Huracan LP610, Ferrari 458 You get to drive each car, every 15-20 min you swap with your passenger for another 15-20 min and then you rotate cars, and repeat, as you drive around the beautify Niagara Wine country. They walk you through the technicals of each car (including how you get in the i8 Spaceship) before everyone picks their first ride. and before you leave at every check point they come by make sure everything is ok and ask if you have any questions. So you can drive with confidence. Every car is automatic with paddle shifting as an option. I chose to stick with Auto as I figure a Super car is likely smarter at shifting than I am... Next time though I think i might try the paddles. This is an amazing experience I HIGHLY recommend. If there was one thing I think these guys could do to make this just a bit better, would be include a simple keep sake. They do offer sunglasses that can record the whole experience fo $100 which is pretty cool. I think a Postcard for each car would be perfect. Specific Model Name, Year, Beauty shot on one side, specs on the other to cross compare, and share and explain your experience with friends and family. The guys are very friendly easy to talk to, and make the experience feel quite comfortable... as driving $1M worth of cars with 1000's of horses in total in just 3 hours could be a little stressful for some. Side Note: The Lambo was an upgrade because the McLaren being temporarily out of commission due to their 1st incident in 7 years where someone decided to drive the McLaren with traction control off... The Lambo was my Favourite ride, so I'm kinda glad?

We've been to Alcatraz twice before and had wonderful experiences both times (both locations), Mothers day we did the Secret Society and it was AWESOME, we absolutely loved it, well put together, great communication, staff , guidance and fun with the games in the waiting area. Although we made it out with 0:38 seconds to spare lol, would be nice if all rooms were 60 minutes Sarah was a great "hostess" We'll be back again for sure to do more rooms :D

Incredible experience. I've done many escape rooms both with family and friends and KeyMasters has the best ones. You can tell they're extremely meticulous with their planning and actually care about how players experience the game. Every time I've been there the staff has been amazing, they're extremely good at giving appropriate hints and pay very close attention to make sure you're on track and having a good time! What makes these escape rooms so fun is that they have extremely unique puzzles that I guarantee you haven't seen before (not just number puzzles with combinations). I highly highly recommend KeyMasters for your next escape room experience!

After Niagara Falls we wanted to continue our adventures! We came across these waterfalls after a couple minutes of research. You must have a car to get to these places. Also, keep in mind the grass/dirt; it will gets muddy at times. There are some hiking trails if you’re interested. If you stay in Downtown Toronto (on vacation) I highly suggest checking this place out.

Great fun! Solve the riddles, figure out the combinations and open the locks. Sounds easy, but it challenges you till the last second. The staff are great at feeding you clues throughout, so you don't get too frustrated. Make sure you bring your phone - you'll need a stronger flashlight than what they provide, and your glasses.
8. Devil's Punchbowl Conservation Area
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 258 reviews
The Devil’s Punchbowl is one of the Niagara Escarpment’s most amazing sights, created at the end of the last ice age by huge melt-water rivers that plunged over the Stoney Creek Escarpment, thus carving the Punchbowl and gorge. From the bottom of the falls, one can see the many different coloured rock layers of the Escarpment. The Punchbowl is the only area where one can view such a large vertical display of Ordovician and Silurian stratified rock. Some of the layers include Queenston Formation red shale, Cabot Head grey shale, limestone and shale dolomite. There is a spectacular view of Stoney Creek and Hamilton Harbour from the lookout, not to mention the view down into the seemingly bottomless gorge.

Devil’s Punchbowl Trail is a scenic albeit difficult, short, uphill trek. Good footwear and an aversion to heights is a must! Across the road, the Dofasco Trail, which extends for kilometres, is a more flat footed, easygoing, less challenging trail where one can enjoy the outdoor beauty of farmland. The Bruce Trail which borders the below the Punchbowl is also a option. While in the area be sure to take in a panoramic view of Stoney Creek at the Look Out. Overall a great outing outside the city!

Great viewing just a very short walk from where you park. They have 2 viewing platforms to view the falls. It looks like in the past you could get down lower but it has since been blocked off. Even so, it is still a good view and worth the stop if you are in the area.
