Rejser til Niagara Falls: Rejser bag faldene og Skylon





Beskrivelse
Når du er inde i Skylon Tower, vil du stige 520 meter i en glaslift til observationsdækket, hvor du vil blive behandlet til en utrolig, fugle-eye udsigt over alle tre Niagara Falls (Bridal Veil Falls, Horseshoe Falls og den amerikanske Falls), samt Niagara River og det omkringliggende område. Du vil have nedstigning 125 fod (ca. 40 m) for at udforske grotte-lignende tunneler bag faldene på Journey Behind the Falls. Denne oplevelse er en fornøjelse for sanserne, da du ikke kun vil kunne høre faldene, men også føle dem. Derefter tage Niagara City Cruises bådsejlads for en nærmere kig på faldene (sæsonmæssig: maj til december), hvorefter din tur vil komme til enden, og du og din guide vil skille veje. På dit krydstogt, vil du sejle rundt Niagara Gorge og komme så tæt på vandfaldene som muligt. I vinter- og forårsmånederne er krydstogtet erstattet af Niagara Takes Flight.

The best part about this tour was the skip the line portions. Our guide Shariq kept forgetting names of the things he was pointing out. Bridal Veil Falls completely slipped his mind and he had to be reminded by a group from Europe. Seems as if the guide should be the most knowledgeable? His stories also had different truths to them. After the tour researching showed he was off in the explanation of where Goat Island received its name. The sites on this tour were really cool and skipping the lines made them a little better. This is absolutely something you can do on your own for less money. Not recommended by me.
Wonderful time, experienced a total drenching under the falls, but the punches did the job. Behind the falls walk truly shows the power.
There was a lot of walking Didn’t expect that since I have a bad knee The guide kept rushing everyone we didn’t know why The scenery was great glad I did it will be more alert next time about the amount of walking
Booked the tour for july 4. Oh my God , did not realise it was gonna be so busy and hot. We were tired with alots of walking and heat. But guess what? Our guide was amazing she offered us water and continuously checked on the entire group. Even though it was extremely busy we were able to skip lines. If you dont wanna wait make sure to book with guide. Parminder (I hope i am writing it correctly) was an angle. She is a sweet girl. Gave us history lessons and alot of jokes and fun facts. She was kid to suggest us to take an uber. Thanks to her we didn’t walked alot after journey. These small suggestions can make big difference. She even took us through casino to enjoy some a/c. 10/10 and 5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 to our guide Parminder.
We wanted to book for fireworks with cruise and accidentally got fireworks with tunnels and Illumination tower. Well that was fun too. We changed the colour of the fall. It felt really special and private. Big thanks to parminder our guide she was amazing. 😻 especially my kids loved her. She was kind and funny. Gave us alot of insights for the history of nigara falls. I loved the tour eve though it was not planned. 🤣🤣
The walking tour was good, it directed us to where to get on each boat, cave, and tower. The tour guide tried to keep us on schedule, but we walk quite a bit at a fast pace. I recommend getting a combination ticket and a map app on your phone. Also, tour doesn’t end up where we started, and we weren’t aware of this.
Had alot of fun with out guide Parminder. We did tour on july 4th was told and given heads up its a busiest day of the season for them. Although we were prepared for long lines however out guide was really smart she planned the talking around the tour so we could reach reach first to skip people inlines. And she was correct we waited 10 mins max and I could see other people in general lines telling they are waiting since 1 hr. It was alot of fun, she kept us engaged and entire group together. Also took photos and made suggestions for the poses and right angels. Our guide was the main highlight to be honest without her it would have been really difficult. Thanks to see sight and parminder. ❤️❤️⚡️⚡️⚡️
My family and I took this tour on July 2 with Tripadvisor (3 adults and 1 child, 10 years old), and while the attractions themselves were beautiful, the overall experience did not match the price we paid — almost $500 USD. We met the guide at the Niagara Falls entrance, and he was knowledgeable and friendly. He explained each attraction clearly and kept the group organized. However, the tour involved more than three hours of continuous walking, often under extreme heat — the temperature reached 45°C, which was overwhelming for everyone, especially my husband who is over 80 years old. By the time we reached the final attraction (the boat ride), we were all exhausted. The tour description does not clearly state how physically demanding the experience is. There was no scheduled rest period before the boat ride, which is absolutely necessary given the amount of walking and the weather conditions. Additionally, at the end of the guided portion, there was no transportation provided back to the meeting point or parking area, which made the experience even more difficult. The attractions themselves were enjoyable, but the value for the price was not there, mainly because the tour lacks transparency about the physical effort required. I strongly believe the company should clearly disclose that this is a long walking tour, include rest time, and offer transportation back to the starting point. More honesty and clarity would help travelers make informed decisions.
So worth it having a guide shepherd my family of four (along with another family) to these three sites. If we had done it ourselves it would have been lots of time trying to find out where to go and also lots of lines. Our guide, Parminder, was wonderful, sharing lots of great info that we wouldn't have gotten on our own!
This tour is nice for the convenience of obtaining your admission tickets and moving you through (some) lines quickly. Our guide was very nice and efficient, but not seemingly knowledgeable about the history (of either side) of the Falls. That's why we book tours - to learn things you can't read on the placards; so, we were disappointed to not have educated commentary/bonus material. Our tour was on a busy holiday, so lines were extremely long, which didn't leave much time for discussion, anyway. Again, great for the convenience of knocking out the highlights without fussing with ticketing lines (but this is no FastPass). Also, this tour included the top three things to do for the vistas of the Falls, so that was really nice.
