Afternoon Niagara Falls Tour

Explore Niagara Falls during the best time of the day, sunset! This comprehensive tour features everything you could want and then some!

The Niagara Falls consist of three impressive waterfalls, not just for their height, but for the sheer amount of water that goes over them. At peak hours, you’ll watch as 6 million cubic feet of water pour over the edge per minute! There’s a lot more to do here than just stare at the falls, however. There are caves, observation points, and historic islands surrounding the falls. This tour takes you through all of them!

Your adventure begins with entrance into the Cave of the Winds. Here, you’ll learn about the vital role that Niagara Falls has played in generating electricity and their connections to Nikola Tesla. Then, you’ll traverse a series of walkways built beneath the monumental falls. Hear the thunderous roar of the water, feel the humid touch of the mist, stare in wonder at these watery behemoths. Once you’ve climbed to the “Hurricane Deck” you’ll be mere feet from the Bridal Veil Falls! After this your tour heads over to Goat Island, itself connected to Terrapin Point and Luna Island. Here, you’ll learn the fascinating history of the falls and gaze up at the impressive Nikola Tesla monument.

One of the best photo opportunities is the Whirlpool State Park. Capture pictures of the rapids, the river, and the scenic landscape. After this photo op, your guide will take you aboard the Maid of Mist for a short cruise. You’ll sail down the rushing river, up close to the falls where the mist will stream past you. You’ll be provided with a poncho, so don’t worry about getting too wet. At this point, you’re probably feeling hungry. Your guide will take you for a delicious meal at Steak Stone & Sushi restaurant.

This 6-hour adventure comes to a spectacular close with a lookout on Goat Island where you’ll see the falls bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. These breathtaking views will leave you feeling awe-struck long after you’ve returned to your hotel.
