    A lot to see and do, the falls is amazing. Something for the whole family. Winter and summer months all year around. Accommodation also not expensive for the setting

    We visited this place but did not end up going to the top. An awesome sight, as the views can be spectacular on a clear day.

    This is definitely a must when visiting Niagara Falls. You enter at the visitors center on the Canadian side. You get a up close and personal view of the falls and a little spray for the falls. Poncho provided.

    We choose to buy and pick up our wonder pass here. This place is pretty neat, it’s part of the wonder pass, if it wasn’t I don’t think is worth $15+ plus $5 parking per hour.

    You will only need one hour parking. 2 if you’re seeing the gardens as well. Nothing to see in December as everything was dead.

    A short and easy walk along a stretch of the Niagara River below the falls with very turbulent rapids. I thought this site was one of the best paid sites on the Canadian side of the river; most of the other paid sites around Niagara Falls were a bit mediocre in comparison.

    Note: You're not seeing the falls - just rapids. But the "just" rapids are pretty impressive.

    The building at the start of the walk has some fun facts about adventurers who have braved the falls/rapids.

    You can not miss the sky wheel. It’s tall and very bright, especially at night. I think it’s a bit pricey but I’m sure the views are great. I don’t go go because the fog was so thick you could see anything.

    Wonderful site.....be aware Niagara Falls is like Blackpool ...unless thats your thing, and then you'll be fine.
    We stayed at the Double Tree, which is lovely, but the area felt a bit edgy at night as there was no one around .......

    We went here with our two little ones (1.5 and 3) on a weekend in January 2024. We absolutely loved it. Beautiful and unique experience. Felt very tropical and warm especially during the winter months. Loved seeing all the birds and other animals. We had so much fun and the kids loved running through the 'Bird kingdom'. We would go back again!! Unfortunately, the timing didn't work out for the bird feeding (where the birds will come and eat our of your hands) but next time we go back we will definitely make a point to do it!! Thank you for this beautiful experience!

    Clifton Hill is walkable from Fallsview Boulevard for 30 minutes. Alternatively, take WEGO green or red lines.

    We were in for a surprise as we thought it is a small place. There were many shops, restaurants and hotels there. Hard Rock restaurant and shop are there too.

    Good for family with kids as they will enjoy the various rides and kid's attractions.

    I rode the Aero Car because it was part of the Niagara Parks pass we got. It was a neat going out over the whirlpool, but not an absolutely essential visit. I wouldn't pay for it on its own. Stay away if you are uncomfortable with heights.

    Very easy experience travelling from Canada to US side by foot. Ignore the CBP website saying "Lanes Closed", the bridge was indeed open and it took no longer than 5 mins to enter US and 1 min to enter Canada on return. Travelling with British passport and Canadian Study Permit.

    Note: US charged $6 p/p entry fee to all incoming travellers (valid for 90 days) which is apparently included in airfares, hence you might not have encountered it before.

    Whichever side you're coming from, it's worth visiting the other as the niagara falls experience is just completely unique on both sides.

    Came back to Niagara Falls for the second time this year and had to stop in the casino, as we missed it last time!

    Brought a friend from Edmonton with us this time and she had fun and so did we. Lots of fun slots, as we don't really play any other games.

    Had fun and would probably go again
