What To Expect
The ‘Maid Of The Mist’ is a world-famous boat ride that began operation in 1846! During your ride you will get up close to all 3 waterfalls; firstly the American falls, then the Bridal Veil falls and finally the Canadian Horse-Shoe falls. During this unforgettable experience, the mist from the thundering waterfalls showers you! Waterproof ponchos will be available for everyone.
Cave of the Winds
This experience is only available on the American side of the falls! During this adventure you will walk through a small interactive museum followed by a thrilling cinema-like experience about Nikola Tesla and his groundbreaking invention, using the water from the falls to generate electricity- a method still used today! After this comes the serious fun; after poncho-ing up yet again, you will walk on a wooden deck right under the Bridal Veil falls, which is re-built every year. This is the only place where you can actually touch the water from the falls. Not only is the feel of the water cooling, but the view is indescribable! But there’s more! You’ll then make your way to the hurricane deck where you can experience 60,000 gallons of water thundering down over you (if you wish)!

5.00We had a great experience on our Niagara Falls tour with Mike! He shared interesting stories about the history of the falls and pointed out small details we probably would’ve missed on our own. He also checked in with everyone during the day, kept things running smoothly, and nothing ever felt rushed. Overall, it was a great way to see Niagara Falls, and I highly recommend The Daily Trips tour!
It was just my husband...

5.00It was just my husband and I on the tour with Mike McAndrew, so we had a more personal day with a very knowledgeable guide, my husband quizzed him repeatedly which I think Mike enjoyed. Is was a very nice day that was not shortchanged in any way with less people in the tour!
Wonderful Experience for the Whole Family

5.00It was a wonderful experience! Very convenient to be picked up/dropped off from our Vrbo and nice not to have to figure out our way around. It was nice getting around lines with the tour guide for the attractions at Niagra, although it wasn't extremely busy. Cave of the Winds is something to experience! As was Maid in the Mist. Bring extra shoes or just wear sandals because you will get wet. I picked this tour because it said small group and it ended up being just my family, which was incredible. Our tour guide Lauren was the best! She was very personable and very nice. She answered any questions we had and we had so much fun with her. 3 hours goes quick, I think 4 hours would be optimal. If it was super busy, I feel 3 hours might not be enough time. Best time of year to go. We had beautiful weather and it was comfortable. I'm not one to usually spend over the basics but I thought the extra cost made the day worth it. Would definitely recommend.
Great time!
