Tour delle Cascate del Niagara: Crociera in barca, viaggio dietro le cascate e Skylon
Descrizione
Una volta all'interno della Skylon Tower salirai a 520 piedi in un ascensore di vetro fino al ponte di osservazione dove ti verrà offerta un'incredibile vista a volo d'uccello di tutte e tre le cascate del Niagara (cascate Bridal Veil, Horseshoe Falls e American Falls), così come del fiume Niagara e dell'area circostante. Dovrai scendere 125 piedi (circa 40m) per esplorare tunnel simili a grotte dietro le cascate a Journey Behind the Falls. Questa esperienza è una delizia per i sensi in quanto sarete in grado non solo di sentire le cascate, ma anche di sentirle. Quindi prendete la crociera in barca Niagara City Cruises per uno sguardo da vicino alle cascate (stagionale: da maggio a dicembre), a quel punto il vostro tour volgerà al termine e voi e la vostra Guida vi separerete. Durante la tua crociera, navigherai intorno alla gola del Niagara e ti avvicinerai il più possibile alle Cascate. Nei mesi invernali e primaverili, la crociera viene sostituita con Niagara Takes Flight.

Itinerario
La tua esperienza inizia presso l'iconica Skylon Tower. Dopo aver incontrato la tua Guida, sali a 775 piedi in un ascensore di vetro fino al ponte di osservazione dove godrai di viste panoramiche mozzafiato sulle Cascate del Niagara, sul fiume Niagara e sulla regione circostante. La tua Guida ti indicherà Horseshoe Falls, American Falls e Bridal Veil Falls mentre condividi storie affascinanti sulla formazione delle cascate e sulla storia del turismo in Niagara.
Mentre ti fai strada nel quartiere di Fallsview, passerai davanti al Fallsview Casino Resort, uno dei più grandi complessi di intrattenimento del Canada. Affacciato sullo skyline delle Cascate del Niagara, il resort dispone di hotel di lusso, ristoranti, teatri e pavimenti da gioco. La tua Guida ti racconterà come questa zona si è sviluppata nel principale hub turistico e di intrattenimento delle Cascate del Niagara.
Percorri la Falls Incline Railway lungo la scarpata del Niagara verso Table Rock e l'orlo di Horseshoe Falls. Questa panoramica corsa in funicolare offre incredibili viste sul fiume Niagara e sui parchi circostanti mentre trasporta i visitatori direttamente nella zona delle cascate.
Da Table Rock, la tua Guida conduce il gruppo lungo la Niagara Parkway verso il molo delle crociere della città di Niagara. La Niagara Parkway segue il fiume Niagara e una volta era descritta come “la più bella guida domenicale del mondo”.
Situato direttamente accanto all'orlo delle Horseshoe Falls, Table Rock è uno dei punti panoramici più vicini alla cascata e un luogo di ritrovo storico per i visitatori delle Cascate del Niagara.
La tua esperienza si conclude con l'attrazione più famosa del Niagara, il giro in barca Niagara City Cruises. Naviga attraverso la gola del Niagara e avvicinati il più possibile alle American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls e alle potenti Horseshoe Falls. Poncho sono forniti come si sperimenta l'incredibile nebbia e tuono delle cascate da vicino.
Proseguendo lungo la Niagara Parkway verso il molo delle barche, passerete davanti alla storica Niagara Parks Power Station. Un tempo la più grande centrale idroelettrica sul fiume Niagara, questo enorme punto di riferimento industriale ha contribuito ad alimentare le città dell'Ontario per più di un secolo.
Scendere 125 piedi attraverso tunnel scavati nella roccia per sperimentare l'incredibile potenza delle Horseshoe Falls da dietro la cascata stessa. Sali sul ponte di osservazione all'aperto dove sentirai la vibrazione fragorosa dell'acqua che si schianta nella sottostante gola del Niagara.
Godetevi una passeggiata attraverso il Queen Victoria Park, splendidamente paesaggistico, noto per i suoi giardini, sentieri e viste libere sulle cascate.
Lungo la strada, ti fermerai per ammirare splendidi punti panoramici che si affacciano sulle Horseshoe Falls, la più grande e potente delle tre cascate che compongono le Cascate del Niagara.
Mentre cammini lungo la Niagara Parkway, goditi una vista mozzafiato sulle American Falls. Situata tra Goat Island e Luna Island, questa potente cascata scende per oltre 100 piedi nella gola del Niagara. La tua Guida ti indicherà le formazioni rocciose uniche alla base delle cascate e spiegherà come l'erosione ha modellato questa sezione iconica delle Cascate del Niagara nel corso di migliaia di anni.

The tour guide Parminder was very friendly and knowledgeable. She helped us get a wheelchair for my mother who could not walk long distances. This tour does require quite a bit of walking, so would encourage tourists to plan this ahead of time. Parminder texted me the evening before with the plan for the next day and kept us prepared. No surprises thankfully . The Skylon tower photography was the best ! Boat ride to the falls was fantastic . Overall great experience.
We had an excellent experience. I certainly would recommend the tour. The day goes so much smoother with the guide.
That Viators is very disorganized. We could not find our meeting place-poorly described by viator. Suggest you book with someone else.
We had a great time and our tour guide was knowledgeable and lots of fun! I booked this tour for my mother and I and unfortunately, I did not realize this was a walking tour. My mother has been having knee issues, so all of the walking was too much for her, so opted out of the boat cruise. The only suggestion I have would be better directions for meeting the guide - he was not in a black polo, none of them were, he was in white - we located him inside the Skylon Tower.
I enjoyed the Niagara Falls tour. No problems at all. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. It was fun. Great job!
Our tour guide was awesome, he told us to call him Buns. He made sure to include everyone in the information he was giving us and all 10 of us made it to where we needed to be lol. They give you ponchos for behind the waterfall tour and the cruise but you will still get soaked so I would suggest to bring your own rain jacket or whole suit for the cruise.
This tour was a good time. Be advised lots of walking so wear your best walking shoes and be prepared to get your steps in!!! Getting to skip the ticket line was nice. Our tour guide Kevin was very kind and enthusiastic about his job! He knew a lot of Niagara Falls history facts and was eager to share them with us. He encouraged the group to ask questions and was excited to answer them. Thank you Kevin and great job!!! The only suggestions I have is for the company. When we were waiting for our guide one of the other guides asked us what our guides name was and I never received any correspondence from See Sights about our tour guides name. Indicating the name of the individual tour guide in the confirmation page would be helpful information to include if possible. 🙂
this covers all angles of Niagara falls, it includes de skylon tower, journey behind the falls, AND the niagara falls boat ride, its amazing, but you will walk… a lot!! be prepared to go over your daily steps!
I have been on quire a few tours and learned that the most important part of the experience is the quality of the guide. Alisha was phenomenal. She (it was her birthday)was passionate, energetic, knowledgeable, personable, and cognizant of her groups needs. She gave insightful tips and suggestions on how to maximize the experience. It was fairly crowded and we were able to bypass some of the lines which gave us more time to enjoy the beauly and magnificence of one of the wonders of North America. Alisha's charisma was obvious as numerous people, store owners, and other guide wished her happy birthday and said hello. Even the local wildlife were her friends. At the end of the tour, she made sure we knew how to get to our next destination safely. Well done!!
Alisha guiding on her birthday with that level of passion, energy and genuine care for her group is something else entirely, and the fact that store owners, other guides and apparently the local wildlife all wanted to wish her well says everything about the kind of presence she brings. 🎂 Those practical tips, the line bypasses, and making sure everyone knew where to head next safely are exactly the details that separate a memorable guide from an exceptional one. Happy birthday Alisha!
I’ve taken numerous Viator tours and have enjoyed all of them until this one. More walking than a tour. It’s almost all self guided. The tour at the top of the tower was totally self guided and we spent 30 minutes waiting for elevators only to have 5 minutes at the top. Behind the falls portion was again totally self guided, again spending 20-30 minutes in line only to have about 10 minutes behind the falls. Then we walked to the boat excursion and the guide left us…did not get on the boat. So total of about 4 hours…45 min of actual touring (including a 30 mjnute boat ride) and 3.75 hours of walking and waiting in line. This was basically totally self guided and not much history shared. Some but not much. Tour guide was ok but the tour itself didn’t give him much to work with. I should have done these three things on my own and saved some money. Would not recommend for the price.
😢 The gap between what you reasonably expected and what the day actually delivered is significant. Please reach out to us directly so we can look into the specifics of how this tour was run and have a proper conversation about what went wrong.
