17 Things to do in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada | Niagara Falls Attractions

[@KelbyAdamOurLifethroughalens]

Oh my word, guys, this is literally my dream to see the falls! We didn't know there was sooooo much to do there, thank you for showing us. I would absolutely love to do the zipline, and I agree one definitely for a bucket list item. The Niagra Glen looks so nice especially for a picnic with that view 💜 Guys what an awesome video, I feel so educated on what to do in the area if we visit there one day. Thank you for sharing these awesome activities with us

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you so much! ❤ It's a beautiful area and we usually go once a year at least since it is so close. Plenty to do in the area. If you're ever in Ontario, Canada I'd definitely recommend a weekend there.

[@jimiplayscobo5877]

You can hike down to the rivers edge and see the rapids and see one of the narrowest points on the river :-) Peace

[@robertivanski3830]

I’ve live 10 min away my entire life. I hope you get to the falls. It’s an amazing place. The falls are spectacular but there is so much else to see and do there. You have to hike down into the gorge to see the power of the river and the beauty of the gorge. The maid of the mist boat takes you right up into the base of the falls All the beautiful gardens the butterfly conservatory Clifton hill casinos the historic town of Niagara on the lake is so beautiful the entire surrounding area is all vineyards. I know the owners of a few of the vineyards and farms in the area. Do a google search for a video called tripping the Niagara. It’s an absolutely stunning video of the river from the mouth at Lake Ontario all the way up to the falls. As the camera goes up the river it shows what’s along that part of the river. I hope you can make the trip you won’t be disappointed I never get tired of visiting the falls

[@neilprivilegio9956]

Needed behind the Falls where was that..

[@judybrouwer3225]

soooo many more things that are not on the list here!

[@brad9888]

Been to Niagara Falls so many times in my life and never get bored of it...theres always something to do

[@MrSujano]

Niagara has a ton to offer! Great video!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you! Yep, so much so that I can plan another trip there for the summer :)

[@Alex_Power]

I'm glad that Mr Sujano left a like for that wine!

[@susane7221]

I'm an American living in Niagara falls Ontario. Well, I actually live in St. Catharines about 30 mins away. It's nice to see the falls whenever I want. Fort George is pretty cool.

[@GladysandKenny]

We love Niagara Falls. We visited back in 2009 and revisited in 2019. We had a great time both times. There is so much to see and do there. Thanks for sharing.

[@DavidDLovesDisney]

The Jetboats are SUPER fun! in the summer months the open top is great. You will get wet but its not bad as the heat will dry you quickly. If it cool out check out the covered version.

[@PeterSmith-or3pq]

That was a start . , there's couple of really nice legends golf courses, gorge hiking and a climbing course

[@cathyate]

Wow there is is many attractions around Niagara Falls , it’s very informative,thanks you for sharing

[@LindaRUDYK]

The R5 martini bar on the 5th floor of the Fallsview Hotel is a jewel in the crown. Also, the live shows coming up again in the Fall are really worth going to for adults.

[@TravelInPink]

Amazing how much there is to do around Niagara falls. This is a wonderful guide!

[@GoTravelOnTheCheap]

Yay for wine tasting! We are so glad we splurged a little to do the Maid of the Mist boat tour. Cute little tiny chapel! We did not know about Laura Secord...good for her!

[@michaelmack6683]

Two things I liked best you didn't really talk about. The jet boat you mentioned but going upstream into the rapids. Or going near the whirlpool which is a sight in itself. Another good attraction is taking an elevator and getting out behind the falls as you watch the water rush downward just a few feet in front of you.

[@Bangladeshicanadianmom78]

Beautiful Niagara falls Always love to visit there’s ❤❤

[@TheAverageTourist]

Same here 👍

[@cyclonmaster]

Amazing views at the falls. 🤩

[@czasnaodlot7455]

Great and useful information. Thanks for sharing your video. I hope some day visit Niagara Falls

[@mazharnoor1735]

Once again an amazing video. Love your work, God Bless!

[@annamcquaig]

Thanks guys! Will be visiting all these spots.:)

[@darrellnesler1883]

That's definitely on my bucket list

[@kalebsfamilyadventures1820]

this is one of our bucket list, nice vlog and video res and editing.

[@davyc3]

Love this video.Very informative. I like Niagara when there is not to many people visiting. and I will definitely do the Zipline at the Falls. Cause it looks epic AF.

[@TheTravelBugBite]

I loved our trip to Niagara Falls! It was so nice to relive it through your video. I do wish we had watched something like this before we went because we. had no idea there would be quite this much to see and do there!

[@NatoBro]

That was a pretty nice video to get people started. Niagara Falls is my wife favourite place to visit. And now that my youngest son has moved to Welland, 15 mins away, we seem to go there every couple of months! lol The Power Station near Table Rock is now open for tours. Visited a few weeks ago. It was very cool. Don't forget the Wild River Walk down along the river. That was very neat as well. I've never been on the American side, so once the border fully opens, I hope to check out the American Falls up close.

[@AprilChu]

I visited Niagara Falls so long ago...I definitely need to plan a trip back and visit the Canadian side! Wine tasting would be on the top of my list of things to do, with ziplining and the jetboat tour coming in at a close second. My daughter is obsessed with butterflies, she would love the butterfly conservatory. I'll have to tell her about it...over 2,000 butterflies! She would go nuts!

[@rowbom]

If you visit Niagara Falls make sure you stay in one of the hotels near the falls snd get a room with a view of the falls.

[@FD-is1ug]

If you visited Niagara Falls on the American side you wasted your time. NFNY is a dump

[@sairaamir1820]

Wow that's the story of a perfect vacation. Great blend of nature's beauty and other attractions. Your video grabbed me back towards my nf tour I have with goldenbustours.

[@NisaCookbook]

Great tips for a future trip!! Thanks for sharing!!stay connected

[@IamaDutch-Kiwi]

What a wealth of information and interesting points of interest. Definitely not for just a weekend- with so many great things to do and see. Well documented. Great video. 👍 🎥 🌷 🙋‍♀️

[@fereshtehjabbari]

We are planning the trip to Niagara Falls for the first time and are so excited to do some of these activities! so happy to watch your vlog before our trip! Thank you so much

[@TheAverageTourist]

So glad to hear it was helpful! Hope you have a great trip!

[@matthewmedley8532]

Going in September. Looks fantastic. Great video.

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks! Enjoy your visit.

[@matthewmedley8532]

@@TheAverageTourist thanks.

[@ArturTymchyshyn]

Great video! 💯 You've summed up most of the best places in the area 👌🏼👌🏼

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you

[@korodyj]

I live in the falls. I’m not sure how a railcar and the table rock centre made this list but not the aerocar, the journey behind the falls, the adventure course, white water walk, great wolf lodge, the TWO casinos…

[@franklinfleming1237]

Tourism is dead thank the feds... now.watch you town join all the rest of former boom towns....

[@adamleblanc1963]

@Brett Heart the housing market here is absolutely fucked. People from Toronto sell their houses for 2 mil then raise our market alot cause they retire down here and don't mind spending 700 grand for a 2 bed one bath.

[@adamleblanc1963]

@Brett Heart it is absolutely smart on their part, cause they can comfortably live off 1.2mil the rest of their life. Some buy property in nigara but still commute to Toronto for work. Since 08 I think the niagara housing market has gone up something like 300%. Definitely should have gotten in before then, now I'd recommend somewhere else, out east is nice :)

[@CoolestGuyInTheRoom]

Thank you for the helpful info 💯

[@SapphireBlueTravelExplores]

Wow, so much to see and do. Thank you for sharing, as always such great pacing.

[@TwoBongsOnTour]

Beautiful, dreamy! ❤️

[@HiddenJackpots]

There's so much to cover in Niagara. You did a great job! Thanks for sharing!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks!! We love it there, such a fun area to explore.

[@KatandDogs]

Wow! So many things to do! Zipline seems to be the one that worth trying. I think I would also go for a cruise and spend some time under the falls breeze. All the places are beautiful. And your dessert at 5:15 looks yummy 😋

[@santosh0535]

Thanks for the vlog.. I have visited Niagara last weekend and visited and tried most of the activities mentioned in the video.. missed few.. 3-4 days visit and you can cover everything in Niagara..

[@TheAverageTourist]

Glad you enjoyed it. Yes definitely easy to do in 3-4 days and lots to see in the area! We always have a good time when we visit.

[@Explorcation]

We would gladly check out any of these places, but Niagra Glenn, whirlpool jetboat, butterfly conservatory, and of course the breweries will be on top of our list next time we visit. We experienced Timothy Hill briefly a few years ago. 100% tourist trap for sure, but agreed that it's still kind of fun as long as you are prepared for the crowds and the prices!

[@reelhappytravellers2691]

The pleasure we derive from journeys is perhaps dependent more on the mindset with which we travel than on the destination we travel to!!!!! This was absolutely stunning to watch. Greate work, great edit....

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Love that! 😍

[@TheAverageTourist]

Such a true statement! Thanks for watching 😊

[@kkbente]

The tunnels under the Falls are the best. Its awesome going down behind them.

[@LucasWorldTravel]

Memories! Niagara was our very first vlog, but we missed so much of this. Another great reason to go back! I would love to try the wineries. We missed those! Zip lining would also be an exciting way to experience the falls! So many great suggestions Sara! Great tips!

[@KitatheExplorer]

When I visited Niagara Falls (probably decades ago smh), that is exactly what we did. We stopped on the American side to explore on the way to Toronto. And stopped on the Canadian side on the way back. Definitely worth it. But I don't remember them having all of these activities like zip lining. But I do remember the boat rides into the falls.

[@peterrivney552]

Zip line and jet boats are new...couple years ago...

[@OurTravelPlace]

I had no idea there was so much to do around Niagara! What a place to go ziplining - I would definitely love to do that. Also the boat rides that get soaked (if it's a warm day) 😃

[@PabloVillasenorPresents]

Thanks for the tips! I particularly like doing the Falls Incline Railway and the river cruise when I visit Ontario! Cheers to your wonderful video!

[@Starlababy]

I've been to the falls many times. It's relaxing just to watch it for a while. I like clifton hill. Lots of things to look at there.

[@philpeate6938]

Excellent video guys!There is so much to do in the Niagara area.I'm from Windsor but we travel very often to the area.Besides everything you covered there is so much more to see and do with a little research.Again another excellent video from you two!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks very much! Yes the area just has so much to offer. We need like 3 more videos to get to it all! 🤣

[@bugsbunny6557]

I love Niagara Falls.Maid of the mist rocks ,butterfly conservatory too.

[@SnowbirdLife]

Thanks for sharing. Been there three times, loved it there, and your video is very informative and helpful for visitors.

[@desarayhall1319]

I love this place and I love to go camping there

[@greglebertlebert3357]

Cowboy Greg I have lived all my life I am 17th generation here in Niagara Falls and I believe that this video is extremely well done and I really applaud and honour two watches with you Cowboy Greg

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks very much for your kind comment!

[@keesdejong2940]

When I visited I loved the attraction Behind the Falls. Great views on a deck right beside the falls. Prepare to get wet though!

[@kimvicvlog4697]

Really enjoyed watching the video

[@priscillasnitt8392]

As a local, I'm saddened you didn't mention the amazing rose gardens at the Horticultural school right next to the Butterfly Conservatory. There is a magnificent rose garden which is perfect for wedding pictures. And the roses actually have lovely fragrances, something we don't experience that much anymore.

[@mikec4308]

Dont forget to visit the brothels

[@dianagarza7412]

I want to go there 😊🌹

[@SilentKnight43]

Excellent video. As a local Niagarian resident I implore everyone who visits the Falls to please wear a mask and distance yourself from groups at the attractions. The past two summers when lockdowns were lifted the Falls was literally overwhelmed with tourists without masks and in very large groups in close proximity. Mayor Diodatti largely ignored this much like the mayor of Amity ignored the shark in Jaws and the crowds proliferated out of control on weekends.

[@NurunNaharLilian]

Beautiful place in the world. I love Niagara.

[@BuddyTheTravelingMonkey]

I can't believe I still haven't been to Niagra. I'm glad to see there is more to see than just the falls themselves. And I will definitely be stopping by some wineries! And Clifton Hill looks fun; I'd never heard of it before.

[@WillKupfer]

I don't think I have ever tried wine from the Niagara region, I want to try. Doing a zip-line at the falls is definitely exhilarating. Excellent video showing all the activities there.

[@quackbob334]

I love going to the falls on day trips with my mom it's pretty and so much fun

[@TheAverageTourist]

It's a great spot

[@debbanks6778]

I definitely recommend the whirl pool jet tours...did it last year and it was sooo fun!!!

[@leol1243]

This video was really good and helped me plan my getaway. Thank you!

[@StepsbyKaatje]

Great tips! I visited the falls in 1998, so fun to see them again! 😁👍 Have a great weekend!

[@lindamorgan5512]

Been on the "wet" whirlpool jet boat and had a blast. You get right in the rapids

[@kavehrassoulzadeh3999]

I would like to share my experience with you. A couple of weeks ago, I purchased a GO train weekend pass just for C$10, then I took the GO train at Union Station to Niagara falls with my bicycle. I crossed the border with my bike and I explored the American side of the falls both by walking and cycling. I had a great lunch at Hard Rock Cafe, then walked around and finally crossed the border and back to Canada. Then, explored the Canadian side of falls and finally returned to GO Station and took the train. My bike really helped me to save my energy for an entire long day and explore more. Hope this experience helps.

[@TheAverageTourist]

That sounds like a great day! Lots of biking, I bet and great paths on both sides. Nice to hear about your experience.

[@wonderlesch6435]

Thank you for sharing so many things to do beyond the falls! Wine tasting would be number one on my list as well 🍷🍷

[@GranE56]

I live, worked went to school/college and raised my family in Niagara. For an urban area, you won't find better! The tourist attractions and various other activities in and around Niagara are world class!!! This video only tipped the iceberg but is a brilliant introduction to start your Niagara adventure!!! Great job guys!!!👍👍👍👍

[@seanwebb605]

It's definitely more than an hour from Toronto. Even the starting point in your video is the Skyway Bridge connecting Burlington to Hamilton which is about 45 minutes to an hour to Niagara Falls.

[@seanwebb605]

@Brett Heart Not by car adhering to speed limits.

[@seanwebb605]

@Brett Heart It's the QEW. There aren't too many scenarios when you can do the up to the speed limit for an extended period of time. Traffic, construction, snow, rain and the occasional murder/suicide means you often find yourself standing still or rolling down hill if you're not careful. At what speed would you have to maintain in ideal circumstances to get from Toronto to Niagara Falls in 45 minutes?

[@seanwebb605]

@Brett Heart This is barely coherent.

[@MAGApepe]

@Brett Heart even google just said 1 hr 44 mins

[@parthsatija864]

When I visited Niagara Falls, we went from the Canadian side so we did the Hornblower, later, we went to the US side and the Maid of the Mist was so much cheaper than that. I know a lot of people say the Canadian side is better but I personally liked the US side more. The cave of the winds was the best, and the gardens have so much peace too but the canadian niagara falls area was crowded but the area was amazing. My favourite in Canada was the zipline.

[@thepoopsoup]

I love the 37% Canada exchange

[@mikec4308]

You cant smoke weed tho

[@costat9995]

I think that you covered the absolute Top things to do in Niagara!!! Amazing footage quality too ❤️😊👏

[@JB-ug5mf]

Thanks for the video! I visited them in '91 from the Canadian side. Took the Maid of the Mist tour and had a group lunch with classmates on my school trip. It was a really nice place and would like to go back to appreciate it as an adult.

[@TheAverageTourist]

Sounds like some good memories! There's plenty to see and do there as an adult

[@philpeate6938]

I miss the Maid of the Mist.Was so much more enjoyable.Hornblower is ok but I'm old school.

[@ORGANIZEDCoNfUsioN]

Great video, so much information. Thank you!!!!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you!

[@TheWorldThroughMyEyes_YD]

What a wonderful guide! Great tips and recommendations on so many new things to do in Niagara! Lovely video! Helpful information! Thank you💗

[@TideKnotTravellers]

Love the way you said, “prices are what you’d expect for a tourist trap, I mean attraction!” 🤣 we say it so often too. We really hope to visit Niagara Falls one day. Will definitely refer back to this when we finally get there!

[@TheAverageTourist]

It's so true, sometimes the prices are nutty for what you get, and just because it's in a popular spot. But there are some reasonably priced and free things to do in the area. I will be going back for sure 😊

[@ronbattiston2468]

Thanks for the excellent video.

[@KoneTravelVlog]

Lots of activities around and at the falls. Thanks for the info. WIll come handy when we go there

[@outlander6739]

Thanks, so beautiful

[@edandveddastravels3251]

Hopefully next year we will visit. Thanks for sharing.

It's a great spot, hope you get there!

[@magicworldbyjorg]

,cool video keep up the great content

[@KD-mz5xv]

great info thanks :)

[@internetandlifehacks]

We definitely want to go on a river cruise but the whirlpool jetboat tour sounds tempting too! And we would go for the one that gets you completely soaked :D

[@PrimeTimeTravelers]

Great tips for a future trip!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you! Happy to share 😊

[@mikegreen6583]

Here's 3 more big ones, Journey behind the falls, White Water Walk, and the Fallsview Casino

[@chongqinger]

A good list. The casino games are probably why many people go, but I'm glad you didn't mention it. I'm also glad you didn't say Marineland too. I also think the festival of lights in winter is nice. And the bike path, Dufferin Islands, the greenhouse, hiking the Bruce trail, picnic at Queenston heights near Brock's monument, botanical gardens, the Shaw festival, and fireworks by the falls.

[@TheAverageTourist]

Is live to go back and do some of the winter activities! And I would never support/suggest Marineland. Thanks for the other suggestions 👍

[@foodruraltv]

Hello, good video friend, thank you for sharing, like 👍😀👍😍

[@dawadolma7122]

I am planning to go there thanks for this video its guide a lot

[@tinmanbbqgregorytinman7652]

We're going in 2 weeks with the kids .great video!!thanks

[@mkbarber65]

Thank you for sharing one of our favourite places! We love a little over an hour away here in Ontario and we try to visit several times a year and it never fails to lift our spirits. But do try the local restaurants off Clifton Hill-there are some awesome little spots!

[@JoeClement]

Great video! I'm planning to head down there soon and you gave some great things to do while there!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks! I hope you enjoy your time there.

[@mashemel]

Great video and very helpful information on the things to do. Good job 👍👍

[@TripsCultureTC]

Great video and nice narration, good job ;)

[@NodesofTravel]

Very good content... just subscribed from Mississauga:) Stay safe ..

I didn't know you could zipline at the falls! That's so cool! We'll have to do that next time we're there! Lots of great suggestions 👍

[@juliespiteri3166]

hi loved your video, which winery did you go too please?

[@TheAverageTourist]

We went to a few - Featherstone, Lundy Manor and DeSimone Vineyards on this trip

Yes dear it’s very beautiful place it is so attractive. Thank you for sharing it stay safe keep connected 🔔👍🙏❤️🍀

what time of the year are these clips from? the weather looks very nice.

[@niagarafallscanada]

Nice video

[@qualitylifestyle8027]

Hi dear thank you for sharing the places so beautiful ❤️🍀🔔👍🙏

[@mikerichardson60]

As a life long resident of the Niagara Region I'll add a few attractions not mentioned. Journey behind the Falls is quite popular among tourists. It's hard to grasp the sheer power of the rushing water until you're quite close to it. The 2 casinos can be fun especially at night or if the weather makes outdoor activities less inviting.

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thanks for the additional attractions! We will just need to go back one day 👌

[@peterrivney552]

You forgot the caves behind the Canadian Falls and the white water walk that has north America's class 6 rapids that are the worst rapids in the world Europe is the only other countries that has class 6 rapids it is a nice walk watching the rapids that reach over 15 feet in hight or almost 5 meters in hight.. you also forgot the gardens and duffirn islands as well as Brock's monument... And the Spanish Airo Car over the wirlpool .. as well as the free fall simulation as well as Marine Land..and I max movie theater the Glen helicopter ride over the falls..and great Wolf Lodge.. kids would love that place...

[@user-ee2zp7md2r]

Hi, are all these attractions and options available presently? Great video!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Thank you, no unfortunately Ontario is still in lockdown but hopefully this summer it will reopen

[@CarryTheThree]

As a person from Niagara falls, the New York side,.. this seems very interesting,.. Clifton hill was our main hangout when we would walk across,.. used to date someone in Chippewa, literally all we have is The Casino and Maid of the Mist,..

[@michaelclatecki8157]

Well hello, I watch your husband on his gaming channel or technology or whatever lol. It's been a while since I've seen it one of his videos. I might be coming up that way from Ohio for my birthday on the 19th of August. My first time. Excited! Just wanted to see what else to do. Can't wait!

[@TheAverageTourist]

Lots to do in Toronto I'll be sharing a video on that soon!
