Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls is one of the most popular tourist destinations in North America. The falls are made up of two separate parts, Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side and American Falls on the USA side.

Although not the highest waterfall in the world they move a staggering 168,000 cubic metres (219,600 cubic yards) of water per minute over a drop of 51m (167ft), making them one of the natural wonders of the world. The surrounding town, a celebrated North American honeymoon destination, offers a wealth of visitor activities including a casino, as well as land and boat tours of the falls.

Activities & Attractions

Maid of the Mist

For more than 150 years, the Niagara Falls Maid of the Mist has taken visitors through the foaming waters beneath the falls. The journey begins at the bottom of the Observation Tower, where you’ll be provided with a souvenir rain poncho.

The Maid of the Mist will then take you to the base of the American Falls and then to the basin of Horseshoe Falls, through the crashing waters and massive rock formations. This half-hour Niagara Falls tour allows you to experience firsthand the power and intensity of the falls.

Cave of Winds Tour

Soak up the experience of being closer to the waters of Niagara Falls than you thought possible, on a spectacular Niagara Falls tour. Your journey begins with an elevator ride 175 feet into the Niagara Gorge. Then, clad in a souvenir rain poncho and sandals, you’ll follow a tour guide over wooden walkways to the Hurricane Deck, less than 20 feet from the torrents of Bridal Veil Falls.

On the deck, you’ll experience tropical storm-like conditions, getting doused with the spray from the rushing waters. A special viewing area has also been set up for handicapped individuals and adults with children in arms.

See a side of the falls few people get to experience by taking the Cave of the Winds journey after sunset, one of the most awe-inspiring Niagara Falls tours available to the public. Follow the rainbow of colors illuminating the falls right up to the Hurricane Deck for a breathtaking adventure you won’t forget.
