Best things to do in Niagara Falls!
We receive many inquiries regarding what “not to miss” while visiting our area so we’ve compiled this list for you.
In Niagara Falls USA you will want to visit Prospect Point & Goat Island for up close views of the American, Canadian and Bridal Veil Falls.
A boat ride in to the mist of Niagara Falls is usually at the top of everybody’s “to do” list. You can board the Maid of the Mist at Prospect Point in Niagara Falls State Park. You will have the opportunity to ride on the NY State observation tower elevator. There is also a great foot path where you can climb close to the brink of the American Falls.
Do you want to get really close to the Falls? Then visit the Cave of the Winds on Goat Island in Niagara Falls NY. While you are there walk out to the “Three Sisters Islands” for a beautiful view of the upper Niagara River.
Even though it’s a fifteen to twenty minute drive from the Falls a ride on the Whirlpool Jetboat is an amazing experience which rivals the Maid of the Mist boat ride. The views are just phenomenal and the rush of riding through the rapids will leave you grinning from ear to ear! For the not so adventurous the Whirlpool Jet offers rides on their enclosed jet boats to keep you and your gear dry.
If you want to get up close to see the Lower Niagara River Rapids you have two options. For the quick view from above a short stroll from the parking area at Whirlpool State Park gives a unique perspective of the rapids below. If you have the time we highly recommend a hike down into the Niagara Gorge to view the river and rapids from up close.
And that’s our take on the top things to do in Niagara Falls!
