Description

Your unforgettable Niagara Falls walking tour begins with your friendly local guide meeting you outside the Skylon Tower. From there, you’ll ascend 520 feet in a glass elevator to the observation deck, where you’ll enjoy incredible, bird’s-eye views of all three Niagara Falls—Bridal Veil Falls, Horseshoe Falls, and the American Falls—along with the Niagara River and the surrounding area.

After you return to the ground, your next stop will take you 125 feet (about 40 meters) below the surface to explore the cave-like tunnels behind the Falls at Journey Behind the Falls. This sensory experience allows you to hear the thunderous roar of the Falls and even feel their power. The tunnels lead to two observation decks, offering the perfect opportunity for stunning photos.

Next, your best Niagara Falls walking tour will take you to board the Niagara City Cruises Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour (available seasonally from April to November, and substituted with admission to Niagara’s Fury and the Niagara SkyWheel during the winter months). On this iconic boat ride, you’ll cruise around the Niagara Gorge and get up close to the Falls. Expect to feel the refreshing mist on your skin, but don’t worry—recyclable rain ponchos will be provided.

Once your boat ride concludes, your Niagara Falls Canada walking tour comes to a close, and you’ll part ways with your guide, taking with you unforgettable memories of one of the world’s most spectacular natural wonders.

We thought the tour was wonderful. They start with the Skylon, then a walking tour and history of things in the area as you make your way down to the next stop, which was Tour Behind the Falls. Then we took the boat tour, which I jokingly said was like being on the Titanic! It’s was fun, you get wet, but you feel the strength of the water and falls… Amazing!

This was a great tour. Our guide, Li, was wonderful! She was very informative, entertaining us with little stories, pieces of history, and even singing a song. Absolutely lovely! The views of the Falls from Skylon were beautiful. The Journey Behind the Falls was breathtaking and so close! But my favorite was the boat ride right up to the Falls - absolutely fantastic!! It was warm out, so getting a bit wet felt wonderful. There is a fair amount of walking, so if you have any issues with standing or walking, be prepared. Overall I loved it and would do it again!

4/5

This see sight tour was advertised as a SMALL group; this tour group was a large group. Which made the tour much more difficult. Much more waiting in lines for the behind the falls tour. The events in general were crowded. The Horn blower cruise was not enjoyable secondary to the crowds of visitors. The water seemed choppy. It just was not what I expected it to be. The guide was Rosalina and she was kind & gracious.

Our tour guide Li was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable about the falls and surrounding area. I knew it was a walking tour but there was much more distance than I anticipated. My wife has trouble with here legs so we lagged behind a bit. We had a group of 5 people total and they were very patient with us. To see the Falls that close was amazing. The walk behind the Falls was a long line and really not worth the time but the table Rock tour to the side of the Falls and boat ride was fantastic. Thank you for making it a great vacation.
