In evidenza

Niagara Falls isn’t just a natural wonder – it’s where raw power and human ambition came together. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover how these thundering waters sparked a revolution in electricity, inspired death-defying stunts, and concealed an unsolved murder mystery – all while strolling through some of North America’s most stunning gardens. The tour starts at Oakes Garden Theatre, a Beaux Arts amphitheater named after gold-mining tycoon Sir Harry Oakes, whose unsolved 1943 murder in the Bahamas remains one of Niagara’s greatest mysteries. You’ll hear stories about barrel riders, tightrope walkers who performed stunts blindfolded, and the seven-year-old boy who miraculously survived going over the falls wearing only a life jacket. The tour ends at the War Memorial, which commemorates those who served in both World Wars and the Korean War.

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.
