A Niagara tour boat approaching Horseshoe Falls

The boat tour into the mist at the foot of Horseshoe Falls, and the single best thing to do on the Canadian side.

The Voyage to the Falls boat carries you past the American Falls and into the basin at the foot of Horseshoe Falls, where the spray closes in and the roar takes over. You will get soaked, and the recycled poncho they hand out becomes a souvenir.

Plan it. Buy a timed ticket online and the first or last sailing of the day to dodge the longest lines. Sunset sailings are the quiet favourite, and on summer fireworks nights you are on the water for the show. The trip runs about twenty minutes and is fully accessible from the clifftop by incline railway.
