The journey, in full
Begin your cross-border Niagara Falls tour with convenient pick up directly from your hotel. The first half of your experience takes place on the USA side. Start with a ride on the Maid of the Mist (operates May–October; replaced by Journey Behind the Falls from November–April). Get up close to the Falls, hear the powerful roar, and feel the mist—rain ponchos are provided. Stop at this scenic viewpoint extending over the gorge for panoramic views of all three Niagara Falls. Descend 175 feet into the Niagara Gorge and walk along wooden pathways leading to the “Hurricane Deck.” Experience the force of Bridal Veil Falls from just a few feet away and expect to get wet. Visit these key vantage points for stunning views and learn interesting facts about the Falls from your guide. Continue your tour on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. Head up the glass elevator to the restaurant at Skylon Tower and enjoy a meal with spectacular aerial views of the Falls. Afterward, visit the observation deck for a full 360-degree panorama of the surrounding area. Travel through the area with your guide, passing highlights such as Dufferin Islands, the International Control Dam, and Old Scow. Descend approximately 125 feet (40m) into tunnel-like passageways behind the Falls. Hear and feel the rushing water up close, and step out onto two observation decks for excellent photo opportunities. Conclude your tour with drop-off back at your hotel.

What travelers are saying
It was a great trip and we enjoyed every minute of it.
If you want to see almost everything there is to see, this is the tour! Our guide Jimmy, was knowledgeable and really worked to make our visit spectacular. We didn't have to wait in a single line. The ticket pick up and process to get into each site was well oiled. Couldn't have had a better experience. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars - the tour for Behind the Falls on the CAN side wasn't specifically listed like the other activities. So, we had purchased independent tickets for that on our own the day before. Had the description more clearly articulated CAN Behind the Falls, we would have been able to avoid the duplicate spend. The bright side to doing our own Behind the Falls, we also tacked on the Tunnel - sooo worth it. If I could do it again, I would have skipped our independent Behind the Falls and just done the Tunnel on our own and enjoyed the full day tour.
