Maid of the Mist - Boat Trip
The Maid of Mist continues to be one of Niagara's most popular attractions year after
year. From the deck of the boat visitors to Niagara can experience a whole new perspective on the mighty cataracts. Clad in a hooded raincoat (it's provided), you'll cruise right to the base of the American and Horseshoe Falls. Hear the thunder of the falls echo against the rocks and feel Niagara's cool mist on your face.
Niagara River off Prospect St (716/284–4233). Not-to-be-missed
experience that gets you well soaked by the towering cascades of water
above.
