Set off on a full-day trip from New York City by bus to the fascinating Niagara Falls and be blown away by the power of the three waterfalls situated on the border between Canada and the United States.
Niagara Falls Day Tour
Begin your day bright and early, boarding a comfortable air-conditioned coach from Times Square at 4 am. Sit back and enjoy the landscape of North America while you head towards the Canada-United States border, a journey of around 7 or 8 hours.
Once you get to the Great Lakes at around 11 am, you’ll be led by your professional guide on a visit of the Niagara Falls. Gaze at one of the most famous waterfalls in the world from several observation decks, learn about the geological origin of this natural phenomenon, find out what movies have been filmed here and how high the falls stand, among many other interesting facts while you enjoy your guided tour. For a complete experience of this magnificent natural scene, we'll observe the falls from different vantage points:
- For an unparalleled view of the falls, you'll be taken to a lookout depending on the weather conditions on the day. You might visit Terrapin Point on Goat Island for a unique perspective on Horseshoe Falls, the most impressive of the three waterfalls.
- If you select the option that contains Maid of the Mist, available only from May to October, you'll enjoy a cruise beneath the falls. See the falls from below on board the famous Maid of the Mist boat.
Both of these activities are subject to weather conditions on the day.
After you've made the most of seeing the impressive Niagara Falls, you'll have free time to eat. Following your meal, you'll head back to New York City, where where, after a 7 to 8-hour drive, we'll arrive between 11 pm and midnight.
