It was great being so close to the rapid waters but it was a bit expensive for the short distance you walked. More

A attraction that allows you to stroll on a boardwalk next to the Niagara river.Its not too long a walk before you get an opportunity to stop at a viewing platform and take in just how powerful and noisy the river is. Another viewing platform at the end of the boardwalk and a small seating area if you want to... More

A fast elevator ride down and a short walk brings you close up to a wild section of the Niagara River. Multiple viewing platforms and a decent length boardwalk allows you to appreicate the beauty and power of the River. Watch out on the last platform - you could get wet! More

The raging river just steps from you is overwhelming. It is magnificent to watch such a volume of water pass. More

Of course you have to do the Maid of the Mist, but this beautiful 20 minutes walk along the river is equally impressive with a lot less people. Wonderful nature and the rapids are powerful and soothing at the same time. I would pay to do this again and I can't say that about anything else in Niagara. More
