While most travelers stick to the highway, my private custom tours from Toronto offer the chance to take a scenic 1-hour detour into the heart of the Niagara Peninsula. Here, you will find the Comfort Maple—a majestic landmark estimated to be over 500 years old. As the oldest sugar maple in Canada, it stands as a living testament to the region's natural history. This peaceful stop is a favorite for guests who want to escape the crowds and witness one of the Great Lakes' most impressive botanical treasures.
