Journey Behind the Falls
Pickup in Whitby Shores
Collecting you in Whitby Shores
From Whitby Shores it's about 184 km and 132 minutes each way via Hwy 401 -> 412 -> 407 -> QEW. Your chauffeur watches the traffic and adjusts your pickup so you reach Table Rock ahead of the coaches.
From Whitby Shores we head up to Hwy 401, take the 412 to the 407, and ride it west across the top of the region before the QEW curls down to Niagara. It's about 184 km and roughly two hours and ten minutes each way — the 412-to-407 link keeps us clear of the downtown crawl, so the run stays smooth from the lakeshore to Table Rock.
Near your pickup
- Port Whitby Marina — We'll meet you right by Port Whitby Marina, so the day begins at the water and ends in the spray beneath the Horseshoe.
- the Waterfront Trail — Pickups along the Waterfront Trail streets are easy — your chauffeur comes door-to-door before heading for the 401.
- Whitby GO Station — If it's simplest to gather near Whitby GO Station, we'll collect your group there and be westbound within minutes.

How pricing works
One flat rate, by vehicle and hours
Your price depends only on the vehicle and how long you want the day — not on headcount or exactly where you start in our area. From Durham Region & the east GTA that's a 9-hour or 12-hour private day, whole-vehicle, taxes in.

Questions
Whitby Shores tour questions
How long is the drive to Niagara Falls from Whitby Shores?
About 132 minutes each way in normal traffic — roughly 184 km via Hwy 401 -> 412 -> 407 -> QEW. Your chauffeur watches the Hwy 401 -> 412 -> 407 -> QEW and adjusts your pickup time so you still reach Table Rock ahead of the crowds.
What does a private tour from Whitby Shores cost?
A flat rate per vehicle with taxes included: from CA$760 for the luxury sedan, up to the luxury sprinter van for larger groups. You see your exact price on this page before you commit.
Is the price really flat, per vehicle?
Yes. The number you see is for the whole vehicle for the whole day, with 13% HST already included. It does not change with the number of passengers, and there is no per-person fare.
Do I pay to reserve?
No. Reserving costs nothing — you confirm the details and we email you back within one business day. Payment is arranged before or on the day; we tell you the method up front, never a surprise e-transfer.
What time do we start?
Most tours leave in the morning to beat the coaches to the Falls. We agree the exact pickup time when we confirm, and adjust for traffic on your route.
What happens if the weather turns?
The Falls are spectacular in rain and even in snow, and most attractions stay open. If a specific stop is closed we swap it — your chauffeur re-sequences the day on the spot.
Which vehicle suits seven of us from Whitby Shores?
Seven is a Sprinter Van job: one price of CA$1520 for the nine-hour base day, tax already in, split among the group rather than charged each. The walk-in cabin means nobody's wedged in for the two hours to the escarpment, and there's room for coats and bags. A party of six or fewer would be comfortable — and cheaper — in the SUV from CA$1000.
Is the Journey Behind the Falls admission part of the fare?
No — your fare and your admission are billed by two different people. From Whitby Shores you pay us for the private car, the chauffeur and his waiting; you pay the Journey Behind the Falls gate for the ticket. We add no markup and no bundle, so your entry time is entirely up to you.
Should we leave Whitby Shores early to beat the crowds?
It's worth it — leaving the lakeshore early puts you ahead of the 401 and 412 traffic, so the tunnels are still peaceful when you arrive. And since the nine-hour base day is booked whole regardless of when you set off, an early Whitby Shores start just means more unhurried time at the Horseshoe and a calmer Parkway ride back.
