Getting started

Your experience begins with hotel pickup in Niagara Falls, NY, in an air-conditioned vehicle. Meet your expert local guide and set off to explore over 15 square miles of sights. After a brief introduction, your guide will outline the day’s route and provide rain ponchos for the Maid of the Mist boat ride and Cave of the Winds access. The tour covers walking and short drives between major stops, so comfortable shoes are recommended.

What to expect

Maid of the Mist boat ride

Step aboard the Maid of the Mist for a close encounter with the base of Niagara Falls. This iconic boat ride operates seasonally and includes rain ponchos to keep you dry as you approach the powerful cascades.

Sail past the American Falls and into the spray of the Horseshoe Falls, feeling the force of the water up close.

If the Maid of the Mist is not operating, your experience includes entry to the Niagara Power Vista instead.

Cave of the Winds

Descend into the Niagara Gorge and access the Cave of the Winds, where you’ll walk along wooden decks just feet from the Bridal Veil Falls.

Experience the rush of the “Hurricane Deck,” where you can feel the full intensity of the falls.

Rain ponchos are provided for this section, allowing you to get close to the water while staying comfortable.
