Itinerary and highlights

Experience the sights and sounds of one of the world's most popular tourist destinations.

Hornblower Niagara Cruises is a thrilling way to experience Niagara Falls. An intimate tour that gets you as close as possible to the breathtaking flow of water, power and mist that is the magnificent Niagara Falls. Within the Niagara Great Gorge, you will journey past the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and into the very heart of the famous Horseshoe Falls. Hold onto your heart and keep your eyes wide open because you’re in for the thrill of a lifetime.

Table Rock Welcome Centre is the heart of Niagara Parks. Get your camera ready for some amazing shots of the Falls!

The intricate designs on the face of the Floral Clock are created with up to 16,000 carpet bedding plants and are changed twice each year. The planted face of the Floral Clock is maintained by Niagara Parks horticulture staff, while the mechanism inside is kept in working order by Ontario Hydro. The tower at the back of the clock houses Westminster chimes that greet each quarter hour.

Spend some time walking around what many consider to be Canada's prettiest town. Explore the quaint shops, boutiques and cafes before we return to Toronto. Grab an ice cream at Cows or sample some ice wine at Niagara Wine Country Vintners.
