About the activity

Ascend 520 ft. in a glass elevator within the Skylon Tower to the observation deck. From here, you'll enjoy a spectacular bird's-eye view of all three Niagara Falls (Bridal Veil Falls, Horseshoe Falls, and the American Falls), the Niagara River, and the surrounding landscape. Descend 125 ft (approximately 40m) to explore the cave-like tunnels behind the Falls at Journey Behind the Falls. This immersive experience engages all your senses, allowing you to hear and feel the power of the falls. Embark on the Niagara City Cruises boat tour for an up-close encounter with the falls (operates seasonally from May to December). This cruise will take you around the Niagara Gorge, bringing you as close as possible to the majestic Falls. The tour concludes upon completion of the cruise, at which point you will part ways with your guide. During the winter and spring months, the boat cruise is substituted with the Niagara Takes Flight experience.

★★★★★Viator review
A great afternoon at Niagara
Martin_s, October 2026
The experience was well organised and very prompt. Our guide Alisha was very helpful and so positive that the day was fun. We completed Skylon which gave great views of the area and then walked to the behind the falls experience that was incredible. The mist was very heavy but added to the experience. Great gifts are found here at Roots. We then walked to the boat trip that enabled us to experience the force of the falls and yep we got very wet but loved every minute of it. There is a lot of walking that may not be good for everyone but for us it wasn’t a problem. The little tree stop to meet Maddison the squirrel was an added Alisha touch ❤️. We fully recommend this tour.
