This award-winning tour highlights the best ways to experience Niagara Falls. You’ll experience the Falls up close on a Niagara City Cruises boat ride (seasonal, operating April-November only, replaced with admission to Niagara: miracles, myths & magic at the Greg Frewin Theatre and Butterfly Conservatory), behind and underneath them at Journey Behind the Falls and from up above at the Skylon Tower. You’ll also enjoy a narrated driving tour through the city that highlights the area’s fascinating geography and history.
Your fun-filled, Niagara Falls tour begins with pick-up directly from your hotel in Niagara Falls before heading to your first stop at Skylon Tower.
At Skylon Tower, you’ll head up 520 ft. in a glass lift to the observation deck where you will be treated to an incredible, birds-eye view of all three Niagara Falls (Bridal Veil Falls, Horseshoe Falls, and the American Falls), as well as the Niagara River and surrounding area.
Once you get back on the ground, your next stop will have you descend 125 ft (approx. 40m) to explore cave-like tunnels behind the Falls at Journey Behind the Falls. This experience is a treat for the senses as you’ll be able to not only hear the falls but feel them as well. The tunnels lead to two observation decks, giving you the perfect photo opportunity.
After your visit to Journey Behind the Falls, we will take you to board the Niagara City Cruises Voyage To The Falls Boat Tour (seasonal, operating April-November only, replaced with admission to Niagara: miracles, myths & magic at the Greg Frewin Theatre and Butterfly Conservatory from December - April). On your cruise, you will sail around the Niagara Gorge and get as close as possible to the Falls. You can expect to feel the refreshing mist on your skin during this boat ride - but don’t worry, you will be provided with a recyclable rain poncho.
During the final portion of your tour, your guide will take you on a narrated driving tour of the city where you will learn about Niagara’s rich history and distinct geography. During the driving portion of your tour, your guide will take you to several points of interest including the Dufferin Islands, the International Control Dam, the Old Scow, Whirlpool Rapids, and the Floral Clock.
At the end of your Niagara Falls tour, your guide will drop you off back at your hotel.
