There are 3 falls at Niagara Falls, the Horseshoe Falls, the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls they have got to be seen. The Maid of the mist is some boat trip. The helicopter ride of the falls give you tremendous views

Simply a majestic sight! This needs to be on your bucket list. Also, if you have time, take one of the many wine tours that are offered at pretty much anywhere.

This is my 4th time visiting Niagara. Its a beautiful place with a serene feeling when the mist from the falls hits your face. You can stand there and enjoy the falls for hours without getting bored of it.

Wow, cant be expressed with the words. My eyes was wide opened and simultaneously it was getting closed to live every single moments with joy. Must go near to it and see the beauty of nature. It s an experience worth watching, feeling and cherishing forever.

Everyone should visit Niagara at least one time in their life. I highly recommend going to the Canadian side as it is way less touristy and much more natural. Overall the whole area is tons of fun, and if you go off season you can get a great deal on hotels! It is worth noting that I visited pre COVID and I imagine things are much different now.

Niagara Falls should always a good choice. We live about 1.5 hour drive from my home stay and we love going there in all seasons. Weekdays are less crowded during current situation.But remember those caution for COVID.

It’s wet, it’s loud, it’s beautiful, it’s awesome! While it can be plenty crowded on both the American side and the Canadian side, dealing with the hordes of people is worth it just to see and hear the greatness that is Niagara Falls. The sheer power you behold while there is amazing. Having viewed the falls from both sides, I’d say viewing it from the Canadian side is better because you get to look at the American side, which is the side that has a lovely lush forest/park background. The Canadian side on the other hand is dominated by massive buildings. So viewing from the Canadian side is better because you get to look at the prettier American side.

Very beautiful place to see and take a walk. The boardwalk along the Falls is very long. And I would recommend doing the Hornblower Cruise that takes you right beside the falls in a boat and provide you a poncho. We parked near the flower house near the old electrical Station as that’s all that was available and it’s metered parking. Some places want $28 for the day we were only staying for about an hour or two

Horseshoe Falls, also known as Canadian Falls, is the largest of the three waterfalls that collectively form Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–United States border. Approximately 90% of the Niagara River, after diversions for hydropower generation, flows over Horseshoe Falls.

It was fun, my wife and I had a wonderful time there. We got there at 5pm so it wasnt that hot outside. The falls are wonderful to look at, and the night show is fun to watch. Everyone must go. Enjoy.

The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life. When I first saw it from a distance, I wanted to run to it. It was incredible. I’m having a hard time describing how amazing it is. It takes your breath away and it’s something you’ll never ever forget. Being able to see something so grand and beautiful was like a dream. I’m so glad we were able to go and take our little family!

Review №19

Such a beautiful and gorgeous natural wonder! There are various view points of the falls. Due to Covid we were only able to stay on the America side but you can still catch amazing views from here. The park also has plenty of public restrooms, hiking trails, and trolleys that will take you around the area. There are also plenty of picnic areas if you want to pack your own lunch (also food for purchase available as well) make sure to pack a hat or poncho as you can get pretty wet from the mist created from the falls.

What a beautiful wonder of the earth. We live close and yet don’t end up going often. But it’s a wow moment every time we do.Crowds and parking gets hectic on weekends. If you want to avoid crowds, head to the falls early in the morning, better parking, cooler weather, finish your walk and your and get your pictures.Head to Clifton hill after for some fun and games and food.

One of our favorite spots to visit. Have visited many times in different seasons. Breathtaking, every single time. Visited it once from the USA side too. I love it when the must falls on you as you walk cliser to it.

Review №23

It one of the must go places in Canada. And I recommend to visit this place at least once a year if not 3 times a year. Only issue here is parking rate, thats very expensive. On an average trip from Toronto will cost about $25 of fuel and parking will cost approx. $25 maximum daily.

The waterfall is unearthly. you are walking along the boardwalk in Canada, and next to you are several million liters of water. At the Horseshoe Falls itself, the roar of falling water increases. Awesome experience. Fantastic lighting in the evening.

Yet another Canadian one up over them Americans! We invented basketball, were better at hockey, and we got no Trump. The horseshoe falls are completely on the Canadian side and this 150m tall behemoth has been flowing thunder water since the dawn of time. Keep thundering!

Review №34

Wonderful waterfalls, so much volume of water coming down, specially during summer season as the authority doesnt hold the water to generate electricity, Journey behind walls takes you near the falls through underground tunnels, princess Diana once visited here and other celebrities, Maiden of the mist boat tour from Canadian side takes you right under the falls through the river, you feel the power of the falls, water raining down on you, hear the roaring of the water, wind of mist pushing your face, the captain of the boat has to be good to steer clear the power of the falls, a life time experience

One of the most amazing places youll ever see!! Just the shear amount of clear, fresh water going over the edge of this every second is mind-blowing and mesmerizing! Very beautiful and easy to get a great view of from both countries. And, to think people have been silly enough to want to ride over it in barrels?!

Review №38

When the boundary line between the United States and Canada was determined in 1819, based on the Treaty of Ghent, the northeastern end of the Horseshoe Falls was in New York, United States, flowing around the Terrapin Rocks, which were once connected to Goat Island by a series of bridges. In 1955, the area between the rocks and Goat Island was filled in, creating Terrapin Point. In the early 1980s the United States Army Corps of Engineers filled in more land and built diversion dams and retaining walls to force the water away from Terrapin Point. Altogether, 120 m of the Horseshoe Falls was eliminated. Due to erosion, the falls will continue to move in relation to the boundary line in the future.The official national maps for both Canada and the United States indicate that a small portion of the Horseshoe Falls is located within the United States

Goat falls. Truly one of the natural wonders of the world. Its obviously very touristy so that might have an impact on the experience, however it cannot diminish from the majestic falls. Been there many many times and each time there is a sense of awe at the raw power and speed of the water flow. Recommend doing maid of the mist, journey behind the falls and other attractions.

Its a great place for visiting with friends and family, have a ample parking space in lots. Be a shower ready as billowing water mist may wet you.Great place for a day or night excursion.Accessibility Friendly. Also make a trip adventurous by taking a Hornblower Niagara Cruise or Ziplining. Other nearby attractions are white water walk, Butterfly conservatory, whirlpool aero car and more.

So massive and impressive. It misted all over us at Terrapin Point but felt great. Saw a giant rainbow. The mist creates a cloud above that can be seen from the highway. My favorite of the three falls.

One of the seven wonders it truly is.... the tourism this place has gathered is amazing, absinthe accessibility to all of its corners too...Of course one side is American, and the other Canadian so you need a passport for the other side! I was on the Canadian Side..

Review №48

Situated between the state of New York and the province of Ontario, Niagara Falls is one of the most spectacular natural wonders on the North American continent. Niagara Falls is actually three different falls, the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls. Horseshoe Falls is located on the Canadian side while the other are located in New York. With more than 14 million visitors each year it is one of the most visited tourist attraction in the world.

Review №53

One of the best natural wonders of the world. Although being controlled for hydroelectric power, its still so strong and provides great views. There are several parking areas around the falls and currently hourly rate is 10 cad and full day rate is 28 cad. Instead, you may park to private parking lots for 3 to 5 cad a day close to the Clifton Hill and take a walk. No matter which season; make sure to have a poncho if you want to go close to the falls

Walked from 3 Sisters Island to the falls and stopped for every rapid we could gaze upon.It was a somewhat steamy day but the mist had us as soaked as if it had rained. No complaints here!We checked out Luna Island and eventually meandered our way back to the parking lot before heading over to Whirlpool State Park.This is definitely a place that everyone should see in their lifetime!

Marvelous place. I find that the best view of the falls is closer to the fall. This way you can realise the flow of water. From far away its easy to lose the dimension of it.Also, look for the plaque that I show in the pictures. It is so interesting to notice how much the falls have moved over the years...

Review №68

I will never understand why anyone who would ever give a rating of less than 5 stars! This place is awesome! So much water - so much raw power! Every Canadian should experience this place at least once (a year hehe). Plan to park downtown (usually $15-$20 for the day) and about a 20 minute walk away. The sidewalks and roads are clean, and it’s incredibly safe. Weekends will likely be packed, so if you have the chance, try to visit on a weekday to get a semi private view of the beautiful scenery. In conclusion, this is place is a must visit and anyone who thinks otherwise is crazy

Wow what can I say seeing Falls on the Canadian side was on my list for a long time finally did it this past summer. Incredible view and is serene. The place was surrounded by tons of people.The views were spectacular and stunning. Well you do it once you are done for a life time like someone mentioned below. Apart from the view the best part is the rest of the area where one can walk, shop, and there where seating arrangements too which I thought was nice compared to US side of falls.

Went down to Niagara Falls. Love how they project coloured lights on the waterfalls at night - it’s a fantastic picturesque experience.Went down on a Saturday night in September 2020. Still crowded on the promenade during Covid but maybe only half of the crowd had masks on. Sometimes, on the news you see video clips of crowded beaches with not everyone physical distancing or wearing masks. This reminded me a little of that.

It can get a little wet and misty when you get to this point so its good to get some photos before you reach Horseshoe falls. Night time the falls are lighted with coloured lights which offers another opportunity for some great photos. Its worth seeing the falls at night time and you also get to view the fireworks.

A true natural “wonder of the world” that never fails to amaze! Book a room with a view of the falls to enjoy the evening fireworks over the American falls.The sheer volume of water that flows continuously makes me wonder if Lake Superior is bottomless. Too bad that experts can’t figure out how to capture that water for use in arid parts of the world!

This place is hands down the winner for the number one tourist spot in Canada. The horseshoe falls are a sight to behold. The Canadian section of the falls gives you a very scenic view and it’s mightily impressive and relaxing in equal measure.

Horseshoe Falls is a natural wonder offering a spectacular view day or night. You get the best view from Canada. Approximately 681,000 gallons of water flows over the falls every second.

The Canadian side gives you an over all picture of the American and Horseshoe Falls. The majestic power of the falls is something to see in person. The Canadian side is well maintained and has a vast park system that runs along the main road into the falls. It can get very crowded but dont let that stop you from going into Canada to see a different view.
