Niagara Falls, Niagara County, New York, US
Niagara Falls is a beautiful natural landscape and the park itself is free. The maid of the mist and other attractions are reasonable price a nice family get a away in a quaint little town.
Niagara Falls is amazing!! Was only there for a day but it was completely worth the trip. Definitely have to go on the Maid of the Mist boat tour that takes you right next to the falls. The ticket cost $25.25 per person. The observation deck is closed in the evenings but it’s still so beautiful at sunset.
Pretty cool, high up. Allows you to see 3/4 to 1/2 of the horseshoe falls and the American falls. Pretty windy, but worth the $1.25. Plus you are allowed to use the elevator to get down, then hike to the foot of the fall to hear and feel the true thunder of the falls. You can climb up some stairs to even get closer. Fun!
Great staff helped us along, the deck was busy but not overly crowded. What a view though! Definitely worth the short walk and small fee!
This is part of your admission to the Maid of the Mist! At only $25 a person, for a once in a lifetime visit, you can’t beat the price! The lines are very long but move at a decent pace. Again this is definitely a bucket list visit. If you make it to the Falls and don’t go, you have missed out!
We used one of these little parking places to park and it was very convenient. It would start at $5 for an hour. We parked and walked up to the falls observation and had a really good time. The park was beautiful and the falls were just out of this world.
Beautiful place! Parking $5/1hr. U need Walking around dont rush, just feel atmosphere, sound, globally👍 But, very touristic place… no choice about restaurants
Get a birds eye view of both the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls from this tower which extends over the cliff. Unbelievable. You ticket to the Maid of the most includes the admission to this platform. So relax and enjoy the sunset after the cruise and watch the light show after dark.
I loved it! It was my first time. I will be returning. I want to see the aquarium next
Absolutely beautiful view truly stunning. Great experience.
Superb view of Niagara Falls..You can stay as long as you want but if you are with a tour group then time is limited..
Great viewpoint to take fantastic photos. The ticket is included with Maid of the mist tour. There is an elevator that takes you up 20 stories up in 16 sec. It gets really windy up there so be careful of the things youre carrying. Having seen both sides, personally i think the US side of NY is much better than the Canadian side.
Excellent birds-eye views of both American Falls and a decent shot of Horseshoe Falls. The price for just the observation deck is very cheap and worth every penny for the view you get if going on the boat for a public shower isnt your desire (though that experience is incredible as well!)
We had a wonderful day! Its surprising to see how the waterfall changes its appearance as the day progresses. We went there in early morning and stayed till 8pm. One of the best experience of my life.
It was a bit cold but I loved being able to experience the Falls without it being busy. The views were beautiful!
Observation deck entry is part of maid of mist ticket. You can get a better view of rainbow international bridge, horseshoe fall, American falls though it wont be complete but good enough for photographs. This deck gets closed prior to the light illumination on falls in evening so better you plan a spot at prospect point.
Easily one of the best memories of our 5,000 mile summer vacation tour de force. The falls are in Majesty unto themselves and the meeting of the excursion was well worth the price. Mother nature is parsley revealed and her beauty and power. Especially good for families.
I love this beautiful place. Im lucky i dont live too far away from. Dont realize how i take this mother earths beauty for granted. Not only got to see the falls. But, also had a band with people having fun dancing games for kids food trucksAmazing atmosphere. The sunset was absolutely beautiful🌞
A great observation spot to admire the Niagara Falls, the Rainbow Bridge, the Niagara River, Niagara Falls New York and Niagara Falls Ontario. The Observation Tower is 86 meters high (282 ft). It gives you access to the maid of the Mist by using the elevators. This is an amazing spot which is worth to reach to take awesome pictures. It is part of the Niagara Falls State Park from the US. The fee for the observation tower is $1.25 but if you got tickets for the Maid of the Mist, the observation tower has no extra cost. During winter there is no fee to pay since there is no service for the Maid of the Mist. It was constructed with aluminum, glass, and steel. This observation tower was built in the Fall of 1958. The main idea to build it was to observe the American Falls at ground level and to give access to the river level, The Observation Tower was designed as an observation deck and it was accessible from the mainland. Great place, if you are over there give it a chance to be part of your eternal memories. Once you visit it,, this tower will be a magnet to go back again. ;)
We went to the observation tower after maid of the mist. It was absolutely beautiful. We had such a fun time and cannot wait to come back again. Make sure you utilize everything they offer, to get you as close as you can to the falls as well as the best view possible.
We stopped here to go down and get a boat! Then we returned to go outside and take a few more pictures! So amazing! This place is incredible!
Must visit place. Very beautiful falls. Both day and night views are pretty. Light colors in the night change every 10-15 mins.
It was great to see the falls from many different perspectives. I recommend the state park tour with a tour guide like ours.
You can enter observation deck after maid of the mist ride. The total cost is around 25$ but it worth every bit of it. The deck provide the best view of Niagara. There is plenty of space for photography and best place to enjoy the view after awesome boat ride 🙂
This is part of maid of the mist tour.Do not miss this if u are visiting niagara fall, the view of the fall is awesome from the boat and they will take you till bottom of the fall.After boat tour you can go to near to fall by staircase in case you interested or else go to top view deck by elevator and the top view is also awesome.Parking is bit a problem but you can check below my experience that may help you.Timing - 9 to 7:30💲- 25 for adults and 15 for kids, below 5 years are free.Parking- main visitor parking lot 1 near Niagara, 10$ for parking . Most of the time parking will be full so you can check nearby paid parking options. E went on Monday at 11 am but still parking was full. if you dont get parking then dont get panicked, just wait and you will get it in some time.
Though I did not go on the observation deck, I sure did do the boat ride and enjoyed the view!! Everyone needs to do the boat ride to see this Beautiful force of nature! The ride down the elevator is something considering the drop of 500ft!
Amazing view of both Horseshoe Falls and American Falls! We went on November 5th and there was absolutely no mist on us at all! So if you want to go to get good pictures this is probably the best option in the US.
This time I selected the winter, I enjoyed my revisit, I may go again while snowing and never miss night lighting show.
For a $1 per person, you can go up the observation deck to take breathtaking photos of horseshoe falls and American falls.
The town and the falls were lovely to see. We were there in May and it was chilly even then. I can only image what it is like in the winter!
It was a cold weekday and it wasnt busy. I stopped on my way to Boston from Ohio and it wasnt far out of the way or anything. Great view beautiful area
You definitely cant go wrong visiting the observation tower! Getting through the line to get our tickets were a breeze. The views were fantastic! I just wish they emptied the recycling bins more often. It was just a little unsightly but the norm with the number a visitors they get I wasnt too surprised. Totally worth it and the staff was friendly!
Loving being able to get back here with warmer temps. We came here in March 1998 on our honeymoon and it was just to cold and we made plans to get back here and Sept. 2021 we made.it back.
I look forward to see the fall in day time tomorrow. The night time fall is fun to see in the meantime it’s scary because of its height. Something very special about this fall visit.
A lot of walking they do have a trolley for 3 dollars a person. Bathroom was not clean, top of falls restaurant is closed. Actually hard to find a restaurant open before 4pm. But the experience is priceless.
I love what theyve done to the American side of the falls they look a lot better than what they used to I now like the American side of the falls more than the Canadian side keep up the good work
Absolutely stunning. The absolute power is immense and breathtaking. Take the Maid in the Mist tour! Its worth it!
Amazing view of the American and Bridal Veil Falls close by and the Horseshoe Falls in the distance. The river boat tours launch from underneath the Observation Tower on the American side.
Niagara Falls at Night is the best…I visited from US side and looked into the city skyline of Canada.❤️❤️And the feeling was awesome.Also I got to see the speedy river that falls down as Niagara.The colour lights placed in Niagara made is more beautiful.The best part is walking along the river with the beautiful sounds of flowing river and falls and adoring the city other side via Niagara Falls.The parks pathways are well lit during nights.Parking is available and there are many shops near by. Especially there is a Hard Rock Cafe , bars and Indian cuisine too.
Great views from up here! Highly suggest a stop if youre in the area!
Free parking! Not sure if it was the time of year, but not being from the area, what a.find to walk around and check the place out. Great views. Great family time.
A tower overlooking the gorge and falls which gives you a good look at the water falling over the edge. At sunset, the light brilliantly reflects off the water, highlighting it in a memorable way. If you go do the Maid of the Mist tour, you can walk up to the tower afterwards and spend time watching the water.
Truly spectacular views but all concessions closed (cosntruction of a new building neednt shut the old one). Best viewing spot of the Falls on Goat Island also closed due to light amount of snow which was disappointing. Nonetheless, great views in many other locations. Parking was free due to lack of attendant. Good value for the $0.00 money spent but mismanaged by the park service and/or the private concession company. Pleasantly surprised that the restrooms were open!!
Just awesome the waterfall. Every man should see this natural beauty of this falls. To back on this river built face types of building the great casino games in canada held beside this beautiful view towers.
An awesome experience! It is so beautiful and the maids of the mist ferry is 💯 amazing, well worth the money. Get their early and be among the first to get your tickets or the line gets really long.
Wonderfully view from here on falls and Canada border
Very well organized with very pleasant staff. Super clean with nice bathrooms. Great views of the falls and the rainbow bridge. Great experience.
Great views of the American falls. Only a short hike to get a good look at the Canasian falls.
I use Bedore Tours with Equador as our host. The best Tour! Niagara Falls is beautiful.You will be in aww of the water!
Was beautiful view if your patient u can get pics of all colors like I did. Both falls on cdn n american side. Located in state park.
If you have a chance do it, absolutely amazing
This is my first time visiting in Niagara falls , i was enjoying pretty much and i love this place .
Absolutely beautiful. If you havent made the trip yet, you need to.
Our party was giggling the whole way while waiting for the boat ride. Beautiful views of the falls on the American side.
The view is good however the line was really long and they had the line for maid of the mist and the observation deck combined so it was even longer than it should have been, if they opened the line up past the stairs and it wouldnt have taken as long, it costs $1.25 for entrance
Included in the price of the maid of the mist tour or you can pay $1.25 and just go to the observation tower.
Worth the stop to see the falls. Highly recommend doing the Amado of the mist your.
This is what you see after going on the Maid of the Mist. It’s a beautiful spot to take pictures.
One of the most beautiful iconic places in the USA
The view 🥰🥰🥰I could’ve stayed there and watch the view for days.The breeze coming from falls is super.You definitely can take a lot of great pictures. The view of American Falls and Niagara Falls is unique and perfect.Stay as much as you can and enjoy.Highly recommended.
Love the maid of the mist boat tour and the new electric boats are some much quieter and nearly no vibration
Extremely cheap to do the observation deck. Well worth the price for one of the best views.
Beautiful landmark viewpoint. You can see all sorts of wildlife and of course the beautiful waterfall. Its a great vacation destination for sure
Loved it. Beautiful view
2nd time here, absolutely breathtaking and beautiful views as always!
Stunning location and a must see for anyone.The observation deck has far stretching views over Niagara and the falls. Conveniently has an elevator which drops down the 200feet to the boats and water level.Collect your poncho downstairs after the elevator.Try head down on a week day to avoid the queues and congestion.There is paid parking back at the visitors center which also has free restrooms.
View from the observation area was breathtaking. If you havent been there you really need to go. You would enjoy it. 💖
Nice to see USA and Canada fall from observation tower.
It was great from the us side but real view is from Canadian side you can’t really see the real beauty of Niagara falls from us
Very cool. My girlfriend was in awe
This viewing tower gives a fabulous view of the falls, though you see more of the American Falls than the Horseshoe Falls.There is normally a $1.25 cover charge to enter the viewing deck, but when we got there we were told there was no charge.A must-do if you are in the area.
Must see! Awesome power of nature. Make an effort to see both sides (US and Canada). Take a boat ride down towards the falls. You will get wet! No poncho will keep you dry. Awsome experience! Been there numerous times and I highly recommend it!
It was an amazing view and experience!
Wonderful and worth visiting place. Picturesque sight. Employees are helpful but there was a long waiting, that can be reduced by adding some more boats:)
Went on the Maid Of Mist for the very first time!! What an Amazing experience!! Would do it again in a heartbeat!! Staff was very kind and up to speed on the new way of doing business and very conscientious of all the protocols!! Loved this Place!
This was an excellent vantage point for the falls. The view from this point was well worth the price. It was neat to see the falls crashing down on the rocks and draining into the river. You get a clear picture of the the the beautiful green colors as well. Definatly worth the stop.
Always beautiful, especially in the evening! Only complaint I have; is there is NO security guards!!!! cameras were in some places and I did see one emergency stand/call button... but on our walk back to the car some creep was acting sketchy and as we kept walking, I turned back to see where he was, he was flashing a flashlight at us! Super creepy. Thankfully we got out safe.
Well what can I say! Words cant describe.Magical,serene
Amazing views of the most famous body of falling water in the world. You have to go up the observation deck to fully appreciate this awesome beauty and see both the US and Canada side at once. Some parts of the park are being renovated and are off limits. Also enjoyed the friendly squirrels bounding around the park, and will actually climb up your leg in an effort to scrounge food from you (not advisable).
This my first time its beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ everybody should be go there. Must be visit night time.
The new year fireworks are back and the experience was pretty good. Parking was a hassle but still get there early.
Good place to see the falls if you dont want to get wet.
A great vantage point to see the falls from. Only provides a partial view of the Canadian falls though, but the best that you can get while on the American side of the falls.It doubles as an access route to the lifts for the maid of the mist. Be sure to look at the rainbow bridge from the observation deck. We saw double rainbows.PS, expect crowds at all times. Also, make sure you visit it once as the sun is setting. The setting sun creates a lovely Color on the mist pushed up by the Canadian falls. Its also a great point to see the point where the rescue took place from (see the Imax movie to find out more)
Such a historic, New York experience. A once in a lifetime place. If you havent been......go! Screw Cuomo and Rona .......just go.
Its a great nature.The maid of mist is out of service.The observatory is free of charge from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. if the weather is good.The trolley has also ended.
The view of the falls from the observation tower is spectacular, as is the view of the river in the other direction.
The lowest price I was able to find for an attraction in Niagara Falls. Just $1.25 - you can go on the deck and you can go below the deck and take stares to the fall. You get little wet but in the summer days it is just perfect. Must do attraction!
This place is beautiful ❤️ a must see. Please put it on your bucket list of things to do. The park is free. It has a lot of activities for everyone.
Great place to visit. Family friendly. Plenty to explore.
Awesome place to pass the time. One of the best scenic view that observed in my life.
This is beautiful. Great view of canada side as well as falls. One can spend 5-10 mins here and get great pictures. Can be accessed after you finish the maid of mist tour. Atleast access is designed that way. Not sure if can be accessed without maid of mist ticket. Overall will totally recommend.
Amazing water falls out fav place to go every year . We enjoy it everytime we go.
A great place to capture views of the falls and Toronto.
Excellent view of the falls. Elevators and ramps make it wheelchair/stroller friendly.
Gorgeous views, I could stand here for hours watching the water come down. Worth a stop before or after the maid of the mist trip.
Everyone should walk out on this observatory regardless of their fear of heights. You get to see the real beauty of the falls here. Don’t be scared. Just do it!
The tower was closed to anyone not using the elevator for the Maid of the Mist boat tour. We couldn’t even walk out on the regular part unless we bought a ticket to the boat tour and waited 2-3 hours in a very long line. Next time were doing the tour, during the week, off season. Looks like a lot of fun.
Absolutely Stunning, beautiful landscape and plenty to do, eat, and see.
Free access with Maid of Most tickets. Best view that you can have from US side
It was very pretty. But kinda sad you cant actually see Niagara without buying tickets on the boat or being on the Canadian side
Lets take care Beautiful Mother Nature like she take care of us
Basic, but yet inspiring treat in the MIST of new york
Best spot from the American side to view the falls in my opinion.
Lots of fun remember to book your tour withOver the falls toursask for lenny unforgettable experience
An amazing view and part of the Maid of the Mist ride so it didnt even add any time to our visit.
There was an EXCELLENT view up there! Its $1.50 to enter but its awesome! I loved it and recommend it
Had a slight wait for the elevator but it was expected. It was a very good view of our falls!!!
Beautiful ... a true natural wonder even on a rainy day.
If you think or heard all the beauties of niagara is in canadian side than you are wrong . American side also have its on beauty. You can’t beat it any way. Its an awesome place to wachr the whole falls in a image. You are gonna must be like it.
Beautiful and mesmerizing view.
Amazing water fall name Niagara. I soaked but happy
Love visiting Niagara Falls. Looks so much better at night with the lights...
First time here and I was shocked how beautiful the falls are here
The area of the tower and Prospect Point was once known as the High Bank Industrial/Mill District, and hosted industrial use of the area from the 1870s to 1940s.[3]The tower was originally built in 1961[1] and extensively refurbished between 2001 and 2003.[4] Improvements included a pre-cast concrete plank observation deck, an ornamental stainless steel deck railing system, improved high-speed elevators, new rest rooms, and a gift shop.[4]The tower, constructed of aluminum, glass, and steel, stands at 282 feet (86 m)[2] with the base at the bottom of the gorge. Visitors enter the tower at the ground level from Niagara Falls State Park.[1] It sees eight million visitors annually.The Maid of the Mist loads at the base of the tower.
Very fun experience for the whole family. Expect long lines to go into the tower and then down to the ground level. It is well worth it for an app close and personal experience though.
You cannot have a Bad time here.... A wonderful wonder of the world.
All part of the Niagara experience!
Wow what a place unreal for sure and everyone should go there.
Always a great place to go. You can get a great view, even at night.
When you visit the park you have to see the view from the observation tower. During the day you can go up to the tower when you take the Maid of the Mists not ride. However if you go after 7:30-8pm you can just go up on your own to see the beautiful falls at night. Don’t miss out!
Look at the Falls for a small fee of $1.25 per person. Use the same entrance for Maid of the Mist.
Its Niagara Falls what do you expect? For $1.25 you can enjoy the views from the observation tower. I recommend getting there as early as possible, place fills up quick!
Cool place even at night with the lights on the falls. Under construction at the time I visited which made things a little messy but still interesting.
A great spot for some amazing views of the falls.. covid 19 protocol has changed hours and ability to use the full platform.. but still able to social distance and view the falls
Absolutely the most Beautiful experience of my life! Even it was freezing, raining, and cold, I still had the best time of my life!
Beautiful vistas, a great place to visit!
I think the view says it all. The food is quite good as well.
Worth the same fee. Great view. Also there is a handicapped elevator.
What an awesome view of the falls!
The Niagara Falls Observation Tower is a MUST! It is included when you purchase a Maid of the Mist boat tour, and I recommend going on the observation deck before going on the boat. The view is amazing! You can see American Flags, Horseshoe Falls, the Rainbow Bridge, Canada and the United States. It does get crowded, so finding a spit on the rail might be difficult, but one will free up with time. Take a lot of great pictures here during the day and at night! They have a light show that starts at 9pm! Overall, this is a MUST see and worth every second!
Amazing one of the most beautiful places i have ever seen..
Niagara Falls is gorgeous. If youre on the American side, the observation deck is a must do!
Obs deck was closed, Crows nest walk was closed. Other than that, great view of the falls. I appreciate the 1995 refurbishment that installed striped glass to reduce the number of birds flying into the structure.
Awesome views.. helpful pleasant staff.
Always mesmerized by this beauty ♥️♥️
Best views on US side of falls.
If you want to see the whole falls go here
This is probably the best spot to view the Niagara Falls from the US side besides the maid of the mist boat tour. The night lights on the falls are pretty from this spot and you get an over all glimpse of the falls as well.
Pretty nice. Went on Columbus day. Not super packed. Elevator ride is crowded though. But great p.o.v.
My 3rd visit to Niagara Falls and it was just as grand as my first visit. A must see for anyone visiting this part of NY.
A great place to view the falls and the beauty of the falls is breathtaking!! This place is usually crowded and youll have to be patient with strangers and wait for your turn to get decent pictures around this place.
Great view and perspective for those of us who had never been to the Falls before.
Just breathtaking. The wait is long (3 hours to get on the boat), but worth it to see this natural wonder. You must see it at least once in your lifetime.
Amazing views from this place is a treat for eyes. Get to see the famous Rainbow bridge on one side and both the Niagara Falls on the other side. There are good quality benches to sit on and watch the nature’s miracle. The elevators going downstairs the observation tower go directly to maid of the mist and a walkway near the American falls. This place is awesome. Have been here twice till now.
Best place to view the falls and everything around. It’s on the way back from the maid of mist ride or you can go directly with a different ticket.
Great place to visit. Great views. Very helpful employees. Highly recommended you visit here if in Niagara falls.
Its a crazy view and worth it. Only costs a dollar fifty.
Breathtaking, unbelievable, awesome, beautiful, terrifying, frightening, powerful, tale of two cities, undescribable, amazing, magnificent, radiant, enormous, roaring, fast, majestic, unreal, truth, misty, etc.
I have been to Niagara falls many times, this was my first on maid of the mist and can say it is a totally different experience of the falls and everyone should do it.
Just fun.
Beautiful place to overlook the falls, the lines are pretty long sometimes
Very Beautiful place. Feel like heaven on earth. Worth visiting.
Best place to view both the falls form the US side
Canadian side is much better 😉
Wonderful view and lots of places to take pictures. Lots of people visiting the falls which is nice to see people out and about. Supposedly the view is better from the Canadian side but if you arent vaccinated, dont have a negative covid test done, or done the online application to enter, you wont be admitted into the country. Slightly disappointing.
Great place to visit
Beautiful view of the niagra falls. Costs $1.70 if using it alone and comes free with the maid of the mist tour.
Amazing view,. Beautiful location to see the Fall s in their glory
Not only worth the drive, but worth the extra hour of just sitting and enjoying the ambiance and majesty of this place. You will be asked to help others take pictures, its part of the adventure. Be sure to do the maid of the mist boat tour for an extra view and to see the full magnitude of the falls.
Great view of the Falls, whole family enjoyed seeing the wonder up close
No wonder nature is undefeated. The sheer magnitude and power of H2O is awesome.
Definitely a must. You will get there as part of the maid of the mist.
Awesome view. You are right over the water to get a great view of the falls
A very nice view of the falls. I always enjoy coming here to see the falls as well as the premium people watching.
What a great experience! Beautiful views
Absolutely the most stunning view here!This is by far the best 1.25 you can spend in your life!Niagara falls is what started the national parks registry. It begun here.Come here and visit!! You wont regret it!Its free to come, just have to pay for parking. But after 6pm you can park for free.
Its free to go on the tower to get a view of the Horseshoe falls. Also where you board for the Maid of the Mist and go down to the Gorge attraction. The tower though architecturally bland against the Olmstead designed park. It simply looks like a broken bridge that ran out of money to complete. Hopefully NY State can make improvements to let it blend in better with the rest of the park and improve access.
I came here for Night View and Fireworks. Fireworks start at 10Pm EST and for only 5 minutes. It was great experience and the color changes is awesome. I have travelled almost 5 hours from Scranton to see this and this is incredibly beautiful place. The bridge gives you nice view of Rainbow international bridge and the falls with soothing fresh cool air. you can see all falls and take nice pictures. Sometimes there will be more people and you will not get space to take any pictures but it worth to wait for a while to get the photo opportunity. This is my 5th time to Niagara falls and I never missed this opportunity.
A beautiful vantage point of the falls, great place to get the view in pictures. Sadly it is closed at night when the falls are lit.
Breath taking!! Its so beautiful at niagara one of my favorite places! I love it here! Its a must see!!
One of, if not, the best point to stand and admire the US side of the Niagra falls. The horse shoe falls (half) is visible at the distance. The colorful lighting at night and the fireworks is splendid from this site.Great site for long exposure photography of the falls.
Awesome. Just be mindful of the crowds. But definitely worth it
Amazing thing to see!! I cant wait to go back!!
Great place to spend a day
These pics are from the American and Canadian sides. Both sides are breath taking and everyone who can visit, should. Enjoy.
Its a 5 star rated destination for sure, but Ill not visit it a second time until its frozen. It feels great to spend time there just gazing at the falls. The gazillion gallons of water flowing is simply mesmerising.
Very cool. You can see everything from up there
It was very icy! The best part was they still let us out there and for free!!! To me that makes up for the ice. Thank you for having it open.
Really beautiful but pricey. Great spot for photos. I still love the standard, free viewing area above the falls just as much. American falls are breathtaking but Looking forward to the Canadian side opening back up so you can really take in horseshoe falls even better.
Pedestrian bridges could use some love but all and all great time
This place was magnificent. The view is one you have to experience.
Very nice view ! The Canadian side view is more beautiful.
We went there for watching fireworks. It was a great experience and the changing colors of water was awesome. I would suggest to go to that beautiful place. We can have great photos there. People with children should be careful.
Too many people waiting to get onto the observation deck. Very few masks and no...none, zero, zilch...social distancing. People were packed into the line like sardines. Not a good experience at all
Would do the 7 hour drive from Brooklyn again
Great view of the falls and surrounding area, good job keeping the place clean and affordable!
The deck absolutely enhanced the views of the falls from the American side
The best feeling i ever had. I went there with my friends and that was the best trip.
Beautiful spot. First time here, certainly coming back

2022-05-09I’ve always wanted to go here and it didn’t disappoint. As someone coming from the NYC area, traffic through Buffalo to Niagara was non existent. The town itself on the American side was nothing special and the Canadian side visually looks prettier and seems to have more attractions, but thanks to covid, going over the border was a no go. Definitely beautiful and a tick off the by her list.

2022-05-30What a beautiful and natural place to be in with the one you love the most! We were in US side of the fall and it looked amazing and then we passed the border and we had a look from the Canadian side as well. Both looks good and have some great views and attractions

2022-02-22Great place to view the Falls. Its definitely worth it. Its usually very windy so watch your hats and be careful of your phone as you take your pictures! I highly recommend this location

2022-06-09Great park! Easy drive but a lot of traffic. We estourou the parking lot 1 opened.The main Accra film is the Maid of the Mist, be ready to stand in line for at least one hour, if you are going on a weekend.It doesn’t matter if you have a online ticket you still need to stay in line, boat comes and go every 20 minutes I would say.When the tour is done you can climb a stairs to stay close to the US fall.The park is amazing too, you can see the waterfall from top. There’s music, plays, be ready to bring your own food, but you can find beverages if you are willing to pay more for it!

2022-03-10Watching the American Falls and Horse Shoe Falls from top of the Observation Tower is beyond words. Excellent Experience. I was able to see the view in Falls and during Winter and both times it was mesmerizing. The fireworks is great and my daughter loved it so much. The place is well maintained. Definitely a must visit place for anyone who loves nature.
Review №6
2022-06-03Even there were many area that still got much room for improvement (such as courtesy of workers, poor instruction, etc) I should say it is a tour that must go while you are in Niagara falls. Really shock by the great view.
Review №7
2022-05-26The best waterfalls in the world! It just amazes me by the millions of gallons that Niagara pours down via falls! Lovely place and must visit! Glad I have been to this place twice!
Review №8
2022-05-29The Canadian side offers way better Falls views than the American.If you cannot cross over to Canada for any reason, the Observation deck has the best views from the American side of both, American and Canadian Falls.At time of our visit in late April access was free, but I think they charge it starting from May.

2021-10-28I love this place. Will always come back to this awesome God-given falls. 👌Always breathtaking. Been here several times in 2010, 2018 and 2021. The feelings never change, I always feel elated watching the beautiful falls ♥I will bring my daughters here one of these days. ❤
