Be first on the morning boat ride and claim the best spots before the crowds board! This VIP Early access on a Niagara Falls boat ride means you can take the best onboard photos ....and enjoy front row mists! The 20 minute cruise around the falls can drench anyone adventuring near enough.

Following the Niagara City Cruise, your guide will immerse you in the history and stories of the Falls and point out key landmarks that define the Falls, and you'll enjoy more iconic vantage points you'll want to capture with your camera.

Table Rock Visitor Center is next where you’ll get to enter the Journey Behind the Falls experience. With a pre-booked time slot, climb right down the stairs into the rocky caves behind Niagara Falls where crashing water reverberates through the tunnels. The path leads to a ledge on the side of the falls where you can feel the true power of 3,160 tons of water a second as it comes cascading down close by.

  • An incredible Niagara Falls tour with Rick!

    Rick was an incredible tour guide! He was very personable, organized, patient with all the kiddos in our group (ages 5, 5, 10, 10, and 12), and gave us fun facts about the falls. Going through both the boat tour and the Behind the Falls tour with Rick leading the way was a breeze. I would not have done it any other way. 1000% recommend!

  • Amazing informative tour

    We had an amazing time ! We booked the 730 and got the VIP treatment. We were fortunate to have Linda as our guide . She was amazing. She told us all about the history and things to do in the area. She was upbeat, energetic and tried to connect and talk with each person in our group. She helped us pick the best spot to stand on the boat. Informed us of upcoming repairs and how that will be done. She explained history, the old stories and what the water is used for. What a great experience and would highly recommend her!

  • Great tour and tour guide!

    Great walking tour with the highlights (boat and behind the falls). The knowledge shared by the tour guide was great, but the pacing was off. It was 3 hours and should have been 2 hours.
