If you want to see Niagara Falls, you can do so from both the USA and Canada. The magnificent waterfalls straddle the border between the two countries. They are an impressive sight from both sides. But, today, I am going to share with you some of the best ways to see the Canadian Niagara Falls.
Treat yourself to a hotel room with a view
Some of the best hotels near Niagara Falls Canada offer their visitors rooms that look out over the waterfalls. The view from one of these rooms is truly spectacular. It is an experience that you are not likely to forget, and you are sure to get some fantastic photos and videos.
Head to the Table Rock Welcome Center
One of the best views of the Canadian Falls if from Table Rock. If you have a car you can park at the Falls Parking Lot. It is then only a short walk to get the perfect view of the spectacular Horseshoe Falls. You will be stunned by how close you can get. It is one of the best views and apart from a small parking charge, you do not have to pay anything.
Visit the Skylon Tower
The Skylon Tower offers spectacular 360-degree views that include the waterfalls. There is a restaurant too. So, depending on when you go there you can even enjoy a meal as well as the vista.
Get a view of the American Falls from Queen Victoria Park
It always surprises visitors how close the American Falls are. If you go to the promenade that is located next to Queen Victoria Park you can get a panoramic view of them. The fact that you are not too close to them means that you get to see them in their entirety. Many people think that the view is even more impressive than the one they get while on the American side.
See the Falls from a boat
This is also where you can board the Hornblower, which will take you to the base of the actual waterfalls. The trip is great fun, but you will need to wear the poncho that is provided if you do not want to get wet.
Traveling to the area during the Coronavirus crisis
Before you travel to the area, think about whether it is wise to do so under the current circumstances. If you decide that you still want to go, check first to see what is open and what you are allowed to do while you are there. The local tourist office is the most trustworthy source of travel information for their area. You can check their website by clicking the link.
