- Samuel PasaribuBekasi, Indonesia2,651 contributionsThis is one of my bucket list. I visited it late in the evening so there was only less people to take some pictures when the waterfalls was illuminated by colorful lights. And then I also visited it in the morning until afternoon to enjoy some attractions like Maid of The Mist and Cave of The Winds and the trails. In the evening I watched the fireworks on the Canada side.Written November 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- nicole_chelliNew Haven, CT322 contributionsEntered from the US Side, we were able to walk out to the observatory deck before descending 200ft down an elevator to the Maid of the Mist. You can walk around the state park, over the roaring rapids of the river and over to Goat Island where you can view Horseshoe Falls! Bring a poncho you’re bound to get soaked. We did the maid of the mist first so I kept my poncho on. Parking is $15, there is also a little food truck park with some stores however we did not eat at the park. You can also partake in the Cave of Winds for $21, or the Maid of the Mist for $29. I wish they had more plaques with facts throughout the park.Written October 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Doses of DraiaWashington DC, DC17 contributionsWe stayed on the Canada side, but went to the America side to experience the Maid of the Mist. OMG….it was an awesome and amazing experience! If you haven’t been to Niagara Falls, put it on your dream board or bucket list! It was so much fun and yes, we did get wet and we’ll definitely do it again!

We stayed on the Canadian side. We didn't know the travel time to Goat Island or through border control so we arrived at the park early. We had plenty of time to walk and visit Horseshoe Falls (actually got to see the rainbows because it was around 8am and the sun wasn't too high), American and Bridal Veil falls on our own. We walked all around the park be the time the tour begain at 10am. Michael told us a couple stories but then got us our tickets to Cave of the Winds since we already walked around ourselves. Cave of the Winds was less than 20-minutes. We walked the wooded path along the cliff, took a few pictures and that was it. Getting in the park, walking ourselves and reading posted things about the history and the Cave of the Winds would have been much cheaper than the tour. The 'tour' really wasn't needed and not recommended for the tour we did.Written May 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
