"Eye-opening and informational insight to a piece of Buffalo History. Very relaxing as well as surprising "hidden" areas you normally would not see. Must do if visiting as well as people who have never experienced this part of history."

"I did this once and it was a really good time. Totally worth the time and money. They have really really good information, it's actually pretty long and goes far. It was fun leaning about a part of the city I really didn't know. I would totally recommend this for nice care free day."

"From beginning to the end of the tour Rich and his crew were awesome. The crew was courteous, friendly and willing to do anything to create a great experience for our family. The next time we are back in Buffalo we will most definitely return to Buffalo River History Tours for another experience."
