Niagara City Cruises

American Falls - US/Canada Border

A most popular way to experience Niagara Falls is cruising right up the river! Niagara City Cruises takes visitors on a twenty minute tour around a section of the Niagara Gorge - the canyon carved by the Niagara River on the border of the US and Canada. The cruise makes a brief stop at American Falls before moving to the iconic Horseshoe Falls!

This was an unforgettable thrill!

U.S. tourists can take the Maid of the Mist cruise. Since we were in Canada, we took Niagara City Cruises. Both countries are quick and efficient and work in concert, alternating turns cruising tourists by the falls and stopping briefly to admire each. The only difference is the color of your Poncho. Red ponchos are Canadian cruisers, blue for the U.S.

An exhilarating experience that’s an absolute must do from either country!
