About this activity
Niagara Falls is simply amazing. The powerful combination of three separate waterfalls that make up Niagara must be experienced in person to realize their magnificence. On this exciting day trip, begin with a shared pickup from a New York City hotel in the morning. Then travel to the airport for a flight to Niagara Falls, New York.
Another short transfer you will visit the heart of the Niagara Falls action — in front of the world-famous Maid of the Mist boat. This tour includes a ticket aboard this popular sightseeing cruise, which travels up close to the thundering falls. The cave of the winds , Niagara Adventure Theater, Niagara Falls Scenic Trolley, The Aquarium of Niagara or simply hit a hiking trail or explore the ruins of the former Schoellkpof Power Plant.
After an oftentimes wet cruise, stroll around the city to visit various aerospace and science museums, casinos, observatories, and much more. For the only panoramic view of all three Niagara Falls, including the American Falls, the clear choice is the Niagara Falls Observation Tower. Extending out dramatically over the Niagara Gorge, this architectural wonder provides unobstructed views of the wild cascades of Niagara Falls, as well as the raging whitewater below.
For aviation enthusiasts, visit the Ira G. Ross Aerospace Museum. This organization is devoted to the efforts of the Western United States during the war years and includes the recently salvaged P-39 (also known as Miss Lend Lease), currently under restoration after more than 50 years resting at the bottom of a lake. For children of all ages, pay a visit to the Niagara Wax Museum of History or the Niagara Science Museum.
After working up an appetite, upgrade and enjoy VIP priority seating for a meal at Hard Rock Cafe. A delicious meal with only a brief wait will provide fuel for a short walk to the various casinos and some afternoon excitement. The options are varied — plan the day according to personal preference.
At the end of the day, return to the airport, then enjoy a 45-minute snooze on the plane ride back to New York City. A car or van will provide return transportation to the local hotels. As an added Viator special, you will receive a Dine4less Dining card for your NYC stay.
