What To Expect

Niagara Falls Observation Tower

Your guide will bring you to your first attraction, a boat ride on the famous Maid of the Mist. Before you board, you’ll have a chance to check out the view from the Prospect Point Observation Tower (also known as Niagara Falls Observation Tower), located directly above the boarding site for the Maid of the Mist boat tour.
30 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Maid of the Mist

While you’re on the boat tour, you’ll take in incredible views, hear the thunderous roars of the rushing waterfalls and you may get a bit wet, depending on where you stand – but don’t worry, you will be provided with a rain poncho for this boat ride.
1 hour • Admission Ticket Included

Goat Island

The next stop on your tour is a visit to Goat Island which connects to Terrapin Point and Luna Island as well. While here you’ll learn about the history of the Falls, see the Nikola Tesla monument overlooking the Falls, and get very close to the Bridal Veil Falls which are situated between Goat Island and Luna Island.
45 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Cave of the Winds

After your Goat Island visit, your guide will take you to Cave of the Winds where you will descend 175 ft. into the Niagara Gorge before heading out onto a series of walkways leading to the “hurricane deck” – only a few feet away from the Bridal Veil Falls. You will be so close that it will feel like you’re surrounded by tropical storm-like conditions, even when it’s calm out.
