We then travel to Journey Behind the Falls. For a once in a lifetime view, you'll first need to descend 125 feet to explore the 130-year-old tunnels behind the Falls. You will feel the thunderous vibration of the Horseshoe Falls long before you see them. Your last stop is at the Whirlpool Rapids Observation Deck. Experience a first-hand lesson in the raw power and peril of the Niagara River's Class 6 white-water rapids that puts you at the river's edge.

5Great tour of Niagara Falls!
Had a wonderful tour of Niagara Falls and our tour guide, John McKinnon was fantastic! He knew so much about Niagara Falls (he grew up there) and was very personable and friendly and he made the tour so enjoyable!
5Niagra Falls Experience
John McKinnon was truly a Godsend. He was very knowledgeable and made the three hours we spent with him so much enjoyable. He made our trip to Niagra Falls so much fun!
5Tour Guide Excellence Personified
John McKinnon made our 3 hour tour beyond expectations. He was professional, informative, and fun. He brought the history of this beautiful place to life and helped make it the highlight of our trip.
5Magnificent way to experience a true World Wonder
Tony Hagan was a wonderful guide! He was thorough and clear in his instruction. He was funny and so accommodating. This tour was so convenient in that you get 3 (best in my opinion) ways to experience the falls and don't have to worry about parking and virtually no waiting. That could be due to going late in the season.
5Fun In Niagara
Tony Hagan was an excellent tour guide with detailed instructions, history tour with photos and humor to pull it all together. Highly recommend him
5Worth it! Thank you Tony!!
So much fun! Tony was a great tour leader/driver. He told stories of the falls and had photos to pass around the bus. Going on the boat was incredible! Getting so close to the falls was just mesmerizing. Highly recommend!! Check out our YouTube and Inspa to see more pics from our tour and time in Niagara. Family.Freedom.Travels

About Niagara Falls & Around
Niagara Falls is where the Niagara River drops between Ontario and New York, with wine country, historic towns and a deep gorge close by.
The Niagara River plunges over the Niagara Escarpment in three falls: the curved Horseshoe Falls, mostly on the Canadian side, and the American and Bridal Veil Falls across the border in New York. Boats carry passengers to the foot of the Horseshoe Falls, and walkways follow the rim of the gorge. After dark the water is lit in changing colours.
