Niagara Falls Skylon Tower & Journey Behind the Falls Tour

About this activity

Experience Niagara Falls in a way few visitors ever do as you see the iconic cascade from high and low. Start with sweeping panoramas from the Skylon Tower before stepping into the new Daredevils Exhibit to learn the real stories behind Niagara’s most daring stunts. A relaxed walk with a local guide along the boardwalk reveals iconic photo ops. Finally, with pre-reserved entry to Journey Behind the Falls, the experience ends behind the falls themselves just feet from the thunderous water. Thoughtfully paced and packed with insider knowledge, this tour is ideal for travelers wanting to make the most of limited time while discovering new perspectives of a legendary natural wonder.
