Niagara Falls Canada: A Self Guided Audio Tour
Despre activitate
Niagara Falls isn’t just a natural wonder – it’s where raw power and human ambition came together. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover how these thundering waters sparked a revolution in electricity, inspired death-defying stunts, and concealed an unsolved murder mystery – all while strolling through some of North America’s most stunning gardens. The tour starts at Oakes Garden Theatre, a Beaux Arts amphitheater named after gold-mining tycoon Sir Harry Oakes, whose unsolved 1943 murder in the Bahamas remains one of Niagara’s greatest mysteries. You’ll hear stories about barrel riders, tightrope walkers who performed stunts blindfolded, and the seven-year-old boy who miraculously survived going over the falls wearing only a life jacket. The tour ends at the War Memorial, which commemorates those who served in both World Wars and the Korean War.
