Offered in: English

Experience Niagara Falls from every angle on this all-in-one U.S. and Canada tour, with pick-up from selected hotels in Buffalo, Grand Island, Niagara Falls, and surrounding areas. Descend into the gorge at Cave of the Winds, where walkways bring you to the base of the American and Bridal Veil Falls with the spray on your face. Follow the river to Table Rock Centre for a front-row view of the thundering Horseshoe Falls, then cross into Canada and sail into the mist aboard the double-decker Voyage to the Falls cruise. In winter, when the boats are docked, the cruise is replaced by Journey Behind the Falls, leading you through tunnels behind the cascade. Rise above it all on the Skylon Tower for a 360-degree panorama of both falls. Built for travelers who want the most highlights in a single day, this trip gathers the essential viewpoints of one of the world's great natural wonders.
