The experience is amazing, highly recommended. The guide, Arturo, was very insistent about tips, which made it a bit uncomfortable.

Niagara Falls Day Tour

At the designated time, we'll meet at the centrally located Times Square and, once everyone's together, leave New York behind and head toward the US-Canada border.

The journey to Niagara Falls takes between 7 and 8 hours, with a rest stop along the way. On board the bus, we'll enjoy the beautiful northern landscapes of North America.

On arrival, the sight of Niagara Falls will take your breath away. What is the geological origin of this natural phenomenon? How many cubic meters of water flow over each waterfall? Which films have been shot at this extraordinary location? From various viewpoints, we'll take in the breathtaking cascades while discovering all kinds of fascinating facts about the world's most famous waterfalls.

For an unbeatable perspective, we'll head to a viewpoint chosen based on the weather conditions on the day. We may visit Terrapin Point on Goat Island, which offers a unique view of Horseshoe Falls, the most impressive of the 3 waterfalls.

After taking in the spectacular Niagara Falls up close, you'll have free time for lunch. Refreshed and ready, we'll set off back to New York and arrive in the city at the end of the day.

Tour Options

At the time of booking, you can choose between several tour options:

Niagara Falls Guided Tour

Please note that if you choose this option, the guide will accompany you throughout the whole day.

Niagara Falls + Audio Guide

In this option, you'll have an audio guide to discover all the secrets of Niagara Falls at your own pace. With this option, 24 hours before the activity, you'll receive the instructions to download the audio guide.

Niagara Falls + Maid of the Mist

In this case, in addition to visiting Niagara Falls with a guide, you'll enjoy a ride on the Maid of the Mist boat. The crossing will take place aboard the well-known ship, from where you'll have a privileged view of the falls. You may get a little wet, but we'll provide you with ponchos so that you can enjoy the experience to the fullest.

Please note that this option is only available between May and October.

Important Info: Schedule

When booking, please note that reservations for the 4 am, 7:30 am and 11 pm departures must be made for the date you wish to travel. If you choose the 11 pm departure, please bear in mind that although the tour departs on your selected date, you will not arrive at Niagara Falls until the following day.
