I wasn't expecting to be awestruck, but I was. These falls are just spectacular, from whatever angle. I did do a helicopter flight over them and that was money well spent. The best advice I can give is if you can, then definitely get a room with a view over the Falls. I could sit in the armchair and just... More

If you can, try to see the Falls from each side. The views are great from each side, but the experiences are very different. If viewing from the American side take time to walk out to the three sisters islands, we're you can stand next to the roaring river as it races to the Falls.

We liked all the tours we took. We went to the American side of the falls and loved it. The park is wonderful! We did the Maid of the Mist tour from that side and it was a great choice! The Bridal Veils tour was great too! We got our feet soaked,but had the sandals that had been provided to... More

Falls are beautiful but you could really experience in in a couple hours and not need much more. There is a ton to do in the area though (reminded me of Wisconsin Dells)- fun little museums (like ripley's believe it or not) and tons of restaurants with lots of ethnic restaurants around. I don't know where all the other reviewers... More

There are fireworks every Friday and Sunday Night around 10pm and by that time the falls are highlighted with colors, it looks phenomenal in person!

The falls are amazing and something that you must experience. So much to see but it costly to see everything. Use the go bus it saves your feet and you can get 48hr pass at many hotels.

Beautiful and historic. The experience of being up close to the falls is breathtaking. The Canadian view provides a view of both falls - New York and Horseshoe Canadian Falls.

The falls are very impressive, there is nothing to do in town, apart from a water park and the botanical gardens. 1 day is enough to see the falls, there are hundreds of people walking around. It is not even worth it to spend the night only to see color lights reflected directly on the water from a tower

Though I have seen many photographs, Niagara Falls is to experienced first hand to be appreciated, much like the Grand Canyon. The enormous power and beauty of the falls themselves, the raging Niagara River and the opportunities to get up close (and various degrees of soaking wet) are not to be missed. Your experience can include as much or as... More
