Niagara Falls USA Tour with Maid of the Mist from Buffalo – Niagara Falls, New York

EXPERIENCE

Discover the beauty of Niagara Falls on a guided tour from Buffalo. Enjoy a boat ride on the Maid of the Mist, visit Goat Island, and descend 175 feet into the Niagara Gorge to see the Bridal Veil Falls up close.

Begin your tour with pickup from your downtown hotel in Buffalo. After a quick drive to Niagara Falls, 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, located directly above the boarding site for the Maid of the Mist boat tour.

While you re on the boat tour, 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.

The next stop on your tour is a visit to Goat Island which connects to Terrapin Point and Luna Island as well. While here, 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.

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.

Your final stop on the tour will be a visit to Whirlpool State Park. While you re here you ll have the opportunity to snap some impressive photos of Niagara s Whirlpool Rapids. At the end of your Niagara Falls tour, your guide will return you to your downtown Buffalo accommodation.
