Should you get the Niagara Falls Pass from Niagara Parks for your weekend getaway to Niagara Falls, Canada? When planning our trip to Niagara Falls, we decided to put the Niagara Parks, Niagara Falls Pass to the test. For $69, the pass includes:
Journey Behind The Falls
Butterfly Conservatory
White Water Walk
Whirlpool Aero Car
Floral Showhouse
2-Days of Falls Incline Railway Pass
2-Days WEGO Bus Pass
We added on the Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour with Niagara City Cruises and the Niagara Parks Power Station + The Tunnel.
The Tunnel at Niagara Falls in Canada is one of the newest attractions and it is AMAZING! Be sure to check it out. Our other big must is doing the Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour with Niagara City Cruises. The experience is stunning and one you'll likely remember for a lifetime!

25:35 Dinner at the Skylon Tower
Here’s a link to Niagara Parks: www.niagaraparks.com/
For dinner, we put Skylon Tower and Table Rock House Restaurant to the test. Dining in, or near tourist spots can be dicey. We wanted to test and see if these places were truly enjoyable, or if they were just coasting on location.
Reservations are a good idea for both:

Thank you! We'd probably recommend the boat ride up to the falls. The views are great. And getting that close gives you an idea of the power of the falls. You'll get wet, but we found it worth it.

I live less than an hour from the Falls, have done many of the same things that they did, and I would agree that the boat ride is the most must do activity.

Planning a trip to the niagara falls (1st time) from the US what would u suggest fly from florida to ontario or into buffalo NY and pardon my ignorance can u rent a car in buffalo NY and drive into Canada and return back in the US? Thanx keep the vdos coming,,,,

@chrisplusmelissa 10 ай бұрын

Hi! I'm not sure we've got enough expertise to be the best advisors here... but I do know that you can certainly rent a car in the USA and drive it into Canada. You'd probably want to ask your rental company however as there may be insurance things you need to do for being in Canada. And I figure, no matter the side you choose, it'll be neat to see Niagara Falls! Have a great time.

You said fireworks is every night. Are you sure? I haven't gone in a few years but it used to only be on weekends and holidays. Illumination of the falls is year round though. The pass has changed a little bit over the years, my husband and I did the pass over 20 years ago during our honeymoon, but we purchased additional days of bus pass and spread it out over a week since my husband doesn't handle the constant tourist thing well.

I go up to Niagara Falls 2-3 times a year from Ohio and I have a passport. I always do both sides of Niagara Falls start on Goat Island NY and walk my way over to Table Rock Canadian Side so many great views of all 3 Falls people really miss out skipping the USA Side from my Experience yes the Canadian Side has hands down the panoramic views of Niagara Falls period!!!!! and you can get pretty damn close to Horseshoe Falls, however on the American Side you are able to get up close and really feel Power of all 3 Falls that simply cannot be done from Canadian Side yes the views are close up and block the whole waterfall from being seen but being able to stand 2 feet from the American Falls at Luna Island and see and feel water rushing over is crazy fun Experience so much water 2 feet in front of you!!!!! Also you can get pretty close to Horseshoe Falls on Goat Island like 4 feet in front the angle is very Unique basically looking at a side view of Horseshoe Falls it's like you can tell it's a Horseshoe but doesn't quite look like it but I always tell people if they can do both sides!!!!!
