What To Expect
Niagara Falls Observation Tower
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 (also known as Niagara Falls Observation Tower), located directly above the boarding site for the Maid of the Mist boat tour.
While you’re on the boat tour, you’ll 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.

2.00We had a great experience at Niagara Falls although we didn’t get a helicopter ride due to bad weather. However, I was wondering the price is too expensive. The reason why I think so is I got a refund for cancelling the helicopter ride but the refund was less than I expected. The tour agency claimed they got the helicopter in discounted price, but after I tried to calculate the cost, if my calculation is correct, less than 50% of the tour price accounts for the total of fees of the 3 venues. Of course they gave us hotel transfer and told us some knowledge about falls, but I doubt their service values over 50% of the tour price.

5.00What an incredible experience! Our guide was so patient and kind. The boys were blown away by the helicopter ride, but then getting to experience the falls on the maid of the mist, and then cave of the winds was icing on the cake. They managed all of the tickets and driving and parking and ushering us to the right place at the right time and made it so easy and effortless. It was the highlight of our 2 1/2 week, 14-state roadtrip for sure..
