What to do and see in Niagara Falls, Canada: The Best Things to do Good for Kids

September 11, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

Once a destination for honeymoons and family vacations, Niagara Falls has really stepped it up as an action-packed vacation spot. The falls are literally the biggest draw – watching the frothy water tumble at alarming speeds can be mesmerizing. Throw on a poncho and hop aboard the Maid of the Mist to cruise close enough to the falls to be drenched by spray. Hit the main strip of Clifton Hill for flashy tourist attractions and restaurants galore.

Horseshoe Falls

Reviewed By Visidigi - Hinckley, United Kingdom

We went in the cold of winter, and thanks to jet lag were there really early to watch the beautiful sunrise over the falls. It was a magical, quiet morning, with great views and we really enjoyed our time at the falls - the sheer power of the water is something else! Another place ticked off the list, excellent!

...and enjoy, it's a very beautiful place ~ love it, its perfect for a relaxing walk! You'll find an outstanding rose garden during the summer months, tropical and rare plants treated with love, I like how many of them have little signs with short descriptions, and if you bring a bit time check out the Butterfly House... Botanical Gardens should really go on every Bucketlist, lol ❄ #hugZz ツ

Dufferin Islands Park

Reviewed By gkelly80 - London, Canada

We drove through here and did not stay. We wanted to go for a hike and it was more of a gentle walk through the park - but absolutely beautiful. Parking is not free. I'd recommend it if you are looking for nice views and a gentle walk. If you're trying to be a bit more adventurous I would head down to Niagara Falls Glen Trail.
