Niagara Falls State Park
Niagara Falls Classic Tour (optional, 2.5 hr): Spend the morning getting close to the falls from both land and water. At Whirlpool State Park you look down on a 125-foot-deep natural whirlpool, formed where the river makes a sharp turn and the rapids churn back on themselves. At the Cave of the Winds, an elevator drops you into the gorge and onto walkways at the foot of the falls, close enough to feel the spray. Then comes the Maid of the Mist, the storied boat sailing since 1846 that carries you right into the misty basin below the falls. Afterward we make the drive to New York. Note: the Maid of the Mist usually operates late April to October (subject to river ice conditions); after it closes for the season, this stop is not visited.

It's the combination of height and volume that makes the Niagara Falls so beautiful. More than 6 million cubic ft. (168,000 cubic meters) of water lays over the crest line of the falls every minute during daytime peak tourist hours. And the famous Maid of the Mist ride gets passengers as close as possible to the Niagara Falls! The Maid rides right into the mists thrown up by the roaring cascade as the Niagara River tumbles over the edge of the falls.
