This four-hour bus and walking tour in Niagara Falls, USA, centers on the natural features and history of the area’s famous waterfalls. The tour begins with hotel pickup from select locations in Niagara Falls, New York, or Ontario. After introductions to the falls’ background during the drive, the group enters Niagara Falls State Park, the oldest state park in the US, for views of the waterfalls and information about their geology. Next, the tour visits Goat Island, situated between the American Falls and Horseshoe Falls, where guests walk on trails to see the waterfalls and Niagara Gorge. Following that, the group boards the Maid of the Mist boat (operating May through October) to sail close to the American Falls and then to the base of Horseshoe Falls, feeling the spray and hearing the water’s roar. After the boat ride, the tour proceeds to Cave of the Winds. Visitors descend roughly 175 feet into Niagara Gorge and walk along wooden platforms to Hurricane Deck, which is just feet from Bridal Veil Falls. The tour also includes a stop at Three Sisters Islands, connected by footbridges, to view the upper rapids of the Niagara River. The group then visits the Niagara Falls Observation Tower for wide views over the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. Finally, the guide leads a short narrated driving tour around Niagara Falls, New York, sharing stories about the city and the falls’ role in tourism development. The small group size, about six people, allows for questions and interaction with the guide. The tour includes all admissions, hotel pickup and drop-off, and guided walking portions on Goat Island.
