We very much liked the boat ride to the falls. It was an incredible experience with the water in the air and the turbulences of the falling water. The raincoat provided is a good protection against the water. Of course, the shoes get wet which can be accepted. However, the guided tour before was not so well organized. Because of the background noise of the falls the guy was difficult to understand and because of the large group he could not get through to everyone. For such problems one can imagine better solutions.

I thought Darrel did a great job of managing such a diverse group. The falls speak for themselves. If I could add something to address. In the beginning, we're all standing around for at least 30 mins. Peter likes to engage with each person during check-in. But it would be better to move the line along faster and maybe get the tour started with those there sooner rather than waiting. Anyone late or has last-minute sign-ups can be brought in a second group. But Peter needs to move faster.

The tour guide was exceptional...loved his enthusiasm and knowledge. Everything was very well organized. Easy to meet up with the group, and he made it easy to navigate the crowds etc. We loved the maid of the mist! I would have rated it 5 stars except for the cancellation policy. I was glad we went, but was shocked that there was no allowance or grace periord to change a reservation.

The passion behind every guide was edvident as you can tell they love what they do. It was pouring down rain but Greg kept us busy and distracted until we got to the Maid of the Mist and were able to settle. His excitement for all things nature is contagious and his people skills with all kinds is awesome. He is a gem!

Our tour guide Paul was friendly and had tons of fun facts about the falls and surrounding area. As for the boat ride ... the Maid of the Mist was an amazing time!! The boat gets so close to the falls and offers a spectacular 360 view of the the area. You for sure get a bit more than a "mist" on the ride, but it's so worth it!!

We had the ultimate Niagara Park tour guide — knowledgeable enough to teach a masterclass, kind enough to lend you an umbrella, and funny enough to make you forget you’re wearing a giant blue garbage bag (a.k.a. the Maid of the Mist poncho). He made the history exciting, the walk easy, and the boat ride unforgettable. 10/10 would get soaked again.

The tour guide is very knowledgable and you can actually hear and feel his passion for his work. Im sorry I dont remember his name, Im too old and Im not good with names. He has a mustache - distinct kind. My family enjoyed it and learned so much. This is not our first time to do the Lady of the Mist, we did it beofre in Canada side. But this is exciting because we went very close. with the tour guide's advise we were able to make the most of the experience. The Cave of The Winds was awesome too. It felt like a typhoon close to the Falls but a fun one. Not the disastrous typhoon

The headout app was worthless because it didn't sync to my purchase. The app would get a 1 star. However, the people on my tour guide were great! Got a text that morning where to meet and very easy to locate. Very friendly folks. Left promptly. Our guide Bernie was great with giving historical stories of the falls. He also has a unique sense of humor that I found entertaining. Plenty of time for pictures and rest breaks while still feeling like the tour is moving. If you don't mind getting wet, this is a great way to feel the power of the falls without attempting a barrel ride!

Our tour with Jacob was a highlight of our trip to Niagara. He was Knowledgeable, compassionate, and led us all with humor and joy. We loved his stories, local recommendations, and tips for how to make the most of our Niagara experience. It’s clear he loves his job, the park, and puts his all into his tours. During this tour I was dealing with a recent knee injury and Jacob not only made sure I was able to take accessible routes, he also waited for us (even if we were the slowest in the troop!) Highlight of our honeymoon, highly recommend to anyone!!

We loved our guide, Todd. He was really helpful and offered a lot of great information about the area. He made it easy for our group who had children of varying ages. So glad we booked with your group! There are two opportunities for improvement based on our groups experience. When booking (and checking in) it would be great if groups traveling together could indicate that they are with another family or families. It would also be great if that could be a question during the checkin process - our check in email came the morning of our departure. It would've been great if that detailed info came with our booking and then the reminder was sent the day before. Finally, our check-in host was not very pleasant. She seemed stressed and while very understandable given the circumstances she was the only person during the whole time there that didn't smile, have a kind tone, or seem welcoming. We all have "off" days and perhaps July 3rd was hers.

The meeting point at Hardrock Cafe was poorly organized, many people standing around with no clear queue to check in, and no one from the tour staff explaining to the masses what to do and what tour they are, so individuals kept going up asking, slowing down the whole check in process. The check in process's was all done by pen and paper, even though the tickets had a barcode, which slowed everything down more. Clear instructions and some form of sign is required to prevent mass confusion, in an already busy area. The tour guide was fine, and spoke two languages which was impressive. Overall you didn't really gain much more from having a tour guide except a few stories as you still had to queue with people doing it themselves, and the area is very well laid out so you could easily see everything without a tour guide.

Great tour, you get to see a lot!!! Be prepared to walk a lot, go on a trolley, and a boat ride. Also, we stayed on the Canadian side then realized we booked this for the New York side so be aware when booking your hotel! We did get to walk across the bridge though to get to the tour so that was actually pretty cool. The Maid of the Mist is amazing and Cave of the Winds is truly a unique experience. So glad we booked this tour!

When I booked it on the website, it said that the Gorge was part of the tour, which my friend was excited about. The intineray said "Niagara Falls, Maid of the Mist, Niagara Gorge, Cave of the Winds, and the Obersvation Tower" I'm assuming the obersvation tower was the landing on the top of maid of the mist, but we did not do the Gorge. Our tour guide, Ricky was chatty and fun, but it felt more of a way to get into the attractions without a hassle, rather than a tour. It was still great!

Thank you for accommodating this experience we have had on this guided tour. Our guide Ricky was Gerry friendly and social in the talking about the Niagara Falls and the knowings. He made our guided tour a pleasant experience. Thanks for that. He also told us that he hoped to get a raise 🤭.

While our guide was very pleasant, we did not see any value add from taking the tour vs. doing the attractions on our own - certainly not worth the large mark-up just to be led from place to place. Most of the group arrived late so we wasted our time waiting for them, and then the group straggled so much it was difficult for the guide to share info. Also, the email confirmation had the wrong meeting place. If I hadn't called to get precise directions, we would have waited at the wrong location. Overall, it was not a positive experience and we would not waste our money again taking tours with Headout. Pleasant guide but company added no real value. Save money and just follow the signs and go on your own.

Absolutely breathtaking. Of all the state and National Parks in the US, this one's my new favorite. Our guide, Janel, was amazing and had a ton of interesting stories to share. She kept the whole group engaged and ensured we finished right on time. I was traveling with my in laws who couldn't walk too far so she suggested us alternatives (a trolley ride) to cover part of the tour and met us at the next checkpoint. The markup compared to the ticket prices is quite high though. Both tickets will set you back by about $60 but you nearly pay $140 for an adult. Now if all or most of the extra money went to the guides, I'd be more than happy, but I doubt that's the case. Anyway, we had a great time.

The highlight of our experience was to see the falls which was spectacular however what made the whole experience even more memorable was our guide Mary. She was warm and friendly and so knowledgeable about Buffalo. Mary never rushed us and smoothly guided us from one event to another. She adjusted the order of what we were meant to see according to the crowds. It was a great day hanging out with our new friend Mary!

The tour started nearly an hour after we were told to be at the meeting point. I thought that the price we paid was pretty high considering that we really only got the tickets to the Maid of the Mist and Cave of Winds. Our group size was supposed to be 7 but it ended up being 17. The walking pace was hard for me to keep up with, much less my 76 year old mom and too fast for how hot it was that day

We booked the 119$ tour which included all the sites and stops. First to note, our tour guide showed up in sagging sweats, no company logo or anything, really could have been anyone who walked by. While his attire didn't bother us, his lack of respect for not being on his phone did. He did not seem to know much facts of the tour, rather guesstimate. If only he would do the tour on his own and read all the monument sign posts he may learn what we had by reading them rather than listening to him. The sites we gorgeous, and views were breath taking. But I would advise anyone to save their money and do the sites on your own which will save you a lot of lack of informational talk, and money as the attractions that were booked on our behalf were 1/3 of our costs at best. It says up to 6 hours, we were done in 4. And while it says dinner will be shared amongst group, there is no food included. We will not recommend or use again,but the good intent is there. Just not price worthy. 317$ for 2 adults and 1 children, for things that would have costs about 120$ on our own. Do your homework on the attractions you'd like to see, I thought I had, but I didn't know what inwas looking for in a quick booking.

Absolutely NOT ONE thing with your company . This was the wrong tour for us and after only two hours when we realized it was the wrong tour, your company would not do anything for us in regards to a refund. we were told becouse it was within the 24 hour period of the tour. I feel that a company doing this type of business with tourist is a poor company and I will do all I can to let as many people know how you treat people and I am filling a complaint with the US Government and the NY State Government and any other Department of tourism that I can Yours Kevin R Thomas

Bernie was the best guide! My husband and I had so much fun. The other group we were suppose to go with canceled so we basically had a private tour. Bernie was so knowledgeable and friendly! We absolutely adored him. I'd say the tour was worth it if you're looking for more of the historical side of Niagara which we were. The caves were super cool! I'd recommend the early morning tour, because it got super packed closer to the afternoon.

The guide did not provide much information. He mostly shared morbid stories. Then he just shared his opinions.

The website for Niagara Falls tells you they don't sell pre-sale tickets but buy tickets online. What you don't realize is it is another site where you pay almost triple the price for something you didn't want. I wanted to see the Cave of the Winds, not an hour and half tour of falls I've seen 100 times. Very misleading site, and not worth what I inadvertently paid for.

What I loved most about this experience was my tour guide Jimmy. He went above and beyond to make sure our group had a seamless transition throughout each event. He was on time, prompt, and best of all: knowledgable and friendly. My favorite attractions were Maid of the Mist and Cave of the Winds. The helicopter tour did not provide the view of the falls as advertised and was disappointing. Otherwise Jimmy made up for it. Thank you for an awesome experience.

Took my mom for her birthday and WOW, what a day! The Maid of the Mist boat was wayyyy wetter than I thought (bring extra socks lol). Our guide, Sam, was super chill and didn't rush us at all. The best part though? That helicopter ride—totally EPIC. Seriously, seeing the falls from up there was like a movie. We skipped the long lines too because the tour handled all that. Honestly, I’m not a big tour person but this was worth every penny. Weather was PERFECT—sunny, a bit breezy. Only hiccup was a slow elevator at the Cave of the Winds, but who cares, the views were nuts. 10/10 would do again.

What I loved most about this experience was my tour guide Jimmy. He went above and beyond to make sure our group had a seamless transition throughout each event. He was on time, prompt, and best of all: knowledgable and friendly. My favorite attractions were Maid of the Mist and Cave of the Winds. The helicopter tour did not provide the view of the falls as advertised and was disappointing. Otherwise Jimmy made up for it. Thank you for an awesome experience.

Took my mom for her birthday and WOW, what a day! The Maid of the Mist boat was wayyyy wetter than I thought (bring extra socks lol). Our guide, Sam, was super chill and didn't rush us at all. The best part though? That helicopter ride—totally EPIC. Seriously, seeing the falls from up there was like a movie. We skipped the long lines too because the tour handled all that. Honestly, I’m not a big tour person but this was worth every penny. Weather was PERFECT—sunny, a bit breezy. Only hiccup was a slow elevator at the Cave of the Winds, but who cares, the views were nuts. 10/10 would do again.

Great tour. Leila was an amazing tour guide. She was super friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. We learned things that we would have never known if we did not do the tour. It is well worth it. We had a private guide and did every major attraction in an expeditious manner. I highly recommend this tour.

At the Niagara Falls State Park, which is the oldest state park in the United States, most of the attractions including Goat Island and Cave of the Winds take you remarkably close to the Falls. While the Canadian side offers expansive views of all three waterfalls, the US side of Niagara Falls provides a more intimate, natural experience. 

Can I see the Falls illuminated from the US side?

Yes, you can enjoy watching Niagara Falls being illuminated from various vantage points on the US side like the Prospect Point Observation Tower and other designated viewing areas.

How long should I plan to stay on the US side of Niagara Falls?

A full day is ideal to explore the main attractions, enjoy some hiking at the Niagara Falls State Park, and take in the views. If you plan to visit both the US and Canadian sides, consider staying for at least two days.

Is there an entrance fee to Niagara Falls State Park?

While entrance to the park is free, some attractions like the Cave of the Winds and the Maid of the Mist have separate fees.

Can I take a guided tour on the US side of Niagara Falls?

A guided tour is a great way to explore Niagara Falls with a well-thought-out itinerary curated and led by expert guides. Some tours even include skip-the-line access to popular attractions.

What wildlife can I see in Niagara Falls State Park?

Niagara Falls State Park is home to a diverse range of wildlife. At the park you can white-tailed deer, eastern gray squirrels, bald eagles and many more birds and animals in their natural habitat. If you find yourself in the park's wetland areas, look out for the snapping turtles! (Bonus fact: Don’t go too close, since these turtles have powerful jaws. There is even a local myth that says they will only let go after it thunders!)

What are the parking options on the US side of Niagara Falls?

There are several parking lots within and around Niagara Falls State Park including at Prospect Point, Goat Island, and Niagara Gorge, with varying fees. Arrive earlier in the day to secure a spot since parking lots can fill up quickly during peak season.

This was truly an amazing experience for me, my wife, and our cutie 9-month old baby girl. The tour guide was very friendly and he even asked to take photo from us at the observational deck.

Our tour guide was fantastic! We were his first tour group as he had been in training to become a guide, and he was amazing. He was funny and friendly and had some great recommendations of places to eat and see in Toronto as well. The tours were great, though with all the add-ons, we didn't actually get enough free time to see the town, so that was a bit of a bummer, but overall was a great value for the cost.

We loved our guide, Todd. He was really helpful and offered a lot of great information about the area. He made it easy for our group who had children of varying ages. So glad we booked with your group! There are two opportunities for improvement based on our groups experience. When booking (and checking in) it would be great if groups traveling together could indicate that they are with another family or families. It would also be great if that could be a question during the checkin process - our check in email came the morning of our departure. It would've been great if that detailed info came with our booking and then the reminder was sent the day before. Finally, our check-in host was not very pleasant. She seemed stressed and while very understandable given the circumstances she was the only person during the whole time there that didn't smile, have a kind tone, or seem welcoming. We all have "off" days and perhaps July 3rd was hers.

Bernie was the best guide! My husband and I had so much fun. The other group we were suppose to go with canceled so we basically had a private tour. Bernie was so knowledgeable and friendly! We absolutely adored him. I'd say the tour was worth it if you're looking for more of the historical side of Niagara which we were. The caves were super cool! I'd recommend the early morning tour, because it got super packed closer to the afternoon.
