It's cheaper than buying tickets on-site. After purchasing tickets online, you'll receive an email with a confirmation slip, which you can print out or show to the staff at the ticket office on your phone. The boat ride isn't crowded, and they provide raincoats. It offers a close-up experience of the falls and is highly recommended!

You'll need to be conscious of how much time you have if you want to get the full enjoyment from this venue. Elevator queues can sometimes be long coming up and going down. This is the only real drag. The views are spectacular from both the elevator and the viewing deck. Worth the money if you have enough time.

The boarding process was well-organized. The deck was windy but offered great views. The guide explained the formation and history of the waterfall. Reaching the base of the falls, the refreshing mist was delightful. Overall, the trip was relaxing and not tiring, making it suitable for families.

Worth experiencing, watching the waterfall, the natural landscape near Toronto that is worth checking in, and the border with the United States is just across the bridge.

5.1当天去的尼亚加拉大瀑布,很幸运正好赶上雾中少女号游轮开航,30美金去体验了一下在大瀑布下的大雨倾盆劈头盖脸从头到脚浇下的感觉,景点会发雨衣,记得自己带鞋套不然全湿。但想看全加拿大那边的瀑布还是乘船效果最好。尼亚加拉大瀑布有好几处观景台,时间长的话可以都去看看,另外还有个风洞景区可以看到新娘面纱瀑布。美国瀑布在不收费的观景台也能看到,但最好的角度也是乘雾中少女号游轮欣赏

Rainbow Bridge is also a bridge connecting New York, USA and the Canadian border. There are many tourists here to enjoy the beautiful scenery. If you come, you can learn about some of the history here.

This waterfall is so beautiful that I was fascinated by it. It is my favorite place to go. You will be shocked when you see this waterfall and how it connects with the world. Although this time was different from the first time, there were many tourists who rushed to take pictures with Niagara Falls as the background, but I was not disturbed.

Xiaozheng is a little far from the waterfall, but you can drive there. The accommodation fee is cheaper in the town, where there are local residents. There are almost no people during the day. It takes about ten minutes to drive to the waterfall.

It is worthy of being one of the top ten towns. Not only does it have magnificent scenery like the Big Falls, but the various amusement rides and restaurants on the streets make it a paradise for children and a heaven for adults. It is the best choice for travel and vacation!
