- •Board a Niagara City Cruises boat and feel the mist of Horseshoe Falls hit your face from the basin below
- •Trace the gorge's history of daredevils, dynamos, and ice bridges on a guided walk along the Niagara River
- •Stand inside the tunnels of Journey Behind the Falls and hear the water crash through the rock above you

What to expect
The boat ride: into the basin of Horseshoe Falls
You'll descend 19 stories into the Niagara gorge, pull on a poncho, and board the boat. Over 20 minutes, the Niagara City Cruises vessel pushes into the basin of Horseshoe Falls, where the mist thickens until the falls themselves disappear and you're surrounded by nothing but sound and spray.
The gorge walk: daredevils, dynamos, and the river that shaped a continent
From here, the tour follows the boardwalk along the Niagara River gorge rim. Your guide will tell you about the tightrope walkers and barrel riders who challenged the gorge. From the gorge rim, you can see both the American Falls and Horseshoe Falls spread out below you.
"When people step onto that ledge and the water's right there, they go quiet. That's the moment."

"The gorge tells a story that goes back 12,000 years. I get to walk people through it in an afternoon."
