Overview

Nothing quite prepares you for the roar. As the boat edges towards the Horseshoe Falls, mist rises all around and the water thunders down in front of you. It’s exhilarating, a little soggy, and unforgettable for all the right reasons.

Combine the boat ride with walkways behind and beside the falls, or a full-day tour from Toronto or New York.

US or Canadian side?

Both are great; the Canadian side has the widest views of the Horseshoe Falls.

Will we get wet?

A little, yes. That’s part of the fun.
