TOP 3 BEST WAYS TO SEE NIAGARA FALLS FROM THE CANADIAN SIDE

Niagara Falls at night

Niagara Falls – a captivating beauty and strength, one of the most famous Canadian attractions, and a must-see destination in Ontario. 

There are so many ways to enjoy this magnificent view. But let me share with you my TOP 3 best ways to observe Niagara Falls:

  1. Niagara City Cruises
  2. Journey Behind the Falls
  3. Fallsview Trail

Something in common with these three viewpoints is the maximum proximity to the waterfalls. That’s what makes them spectacular. So many places look breathtaking, from high observation decks, ferris wheels and helicopters. But with Niagara Falls, it’s different- the closer you get – the better. 

Only maximum proximity to the waterfall allows one to experience the mind-blowing force of nature fully. Extraordinary sounds of strength, fresh breeze on your face and stunning beauty around you – those are the things that make a journey to Niagara Falls special and unforgettable.

Now let’s look closer at these TOP 3 best ways to see Niagara Falls.

1. Niagara City Cruises 

The boat takes you as close as you can get to waterfalls. The trip is around 30 minutes of breathtaking experience. It’s definitely worth the money. Loud, fresh and enormous falls so close you can touch them. And they’ll most likely get you 🤣.

That’s why a watercoat is included in the price, and you can take it with you as a handy souvenir.

Niagara City Cruises is the most impressive way to explore gorgeous Niagara Falls, and it’s the closest you can get to them. 

If you have time or money only for one experience – that’s the one!

2. Journey Behind the Falls. 

It’s an amazing place where, after some going through the tunnel, you find yourself at the best observation deck here with stunning views of Niagara Falls. There are some “windows” to the falling water (because the tunnel is literally behind the waterfall), but this part of the attraction honestly didn’t impress me. The observation deck is quite the opposite – outstanding experience❤️

Nice and handy souvenir (yellow watercoat) is included in the price here as well.

3. Fallsview Trail

That’s an embankment with stunning views. And the best part is that this way to observe Niagara Falls is free! 

There’s also a night light show here. And that’s an absolute MUST-SEE! It’s just gorgeous and mesmerizing to see Niagara Falls at night! And if there’s a fireworks, well, you won the jackpot 🔥. And that one, you have a pretty good chance to win because fireworks are here on a daily basis from May through October (subject to weather conditions).
