Last Sunday we decided to take a one tank trip to Niagara Falls.
Niagara Falls is a quirky place with tons of things visitors can do. Clifton Hill is jam packed with funhouses and 4 D movies, as well as the Skywheel, Ripley’s Believe it or Not, Guiness Book of World Records, Wax Museums and other amusements.

The most famous attraction there is the “Maid of the Mist” a boat tour that takes visitors (from both the American and Canadian side) into the Falls. Hearing the sound of the water as it crashes around you is almost deafening, and is a stunning life experience. This boat tour has been in operation since 1846 and originally cost tourists a dime to take. It runs daily from 9 AM and the last boat leaves at 7:45 PM.

This would be my pick if you were to only do one thing in the Greater Falls area. It gives you a genuine feel of the power that water has when it drops 180 feet.
