Skylon Tower in Niagara Falls | Observation Deck Views 2022

I head up the Skylon Tower in Niagara Falls to take in some breathtaking views from the observation take before heading back down the elevator. I even spot Toronto off in the distance while I am up there.

Thanks for doing this! When you were looking down at the Horseshoe Falls you can see the Buffalo skyline beyond in the distance!

[@emery2nd]

This is crazy to watch, because I literally work here. Those elevator attendants are some awesome people.

[@DasNordlicht91]

I appreciate the energy and enthusiasm the elevator attendants have.

[@KathysFlog]

Thank you. Will be in Niagara in May!

[@nickisix2006]

Dude…… the elevator guy… a bit much 😂😂😂… He clearly enjoys the job wow!!!😂😂

[@moonwvr7252]

We were last weekend and had the same elevator guy. He has a BIG personality! Lol

[@robertgraziano]

I enjoyed this so much. When I was able to travel I loved going to Niagara . .Thanks very much.

[@JohnnyT002]

This really brings back memories and you mentioned my favorate game Space Harrier. Up in the Skylon Tower at the 10:39 mark I see the hotel we stayed at one of the times we visited Niagara Falls. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@monarch1957]

I was there once with my parents when I was young. It's a beautiful spot.

[@AnwerHashimSamnani]

So Nice, I Enjoyed - Thanks For Sharing....

[@rory7511]

Just came down to my favourite bar in Toronto, “The Irish Embassy “ on Yonge, near Front, it’s closed permanently 😞😞😞, apparently developers are going to make condos there, ah well, off to the steam whistle brewery 🍺🍺🍺🍺, bloody love Toronto 🇨🇦❤️🇮🇪☘️

[@sepandttcexplorer]

Good morning Johnny and friends!! Happy Friday!! Nice tour around the Skylon tower. I really enjoyed the nice view of Niagara Falls. I hope everyone has a great weekend!! Cheers 🥂

[@postcardsfromgermany]

Man, that’s really great! What a view!

[@pghrpg4065]

It's nice that the guy has fun with what could be a boring job.

[@andrewohare8550]

I hear ya man. I hate it when you go to a place and they want you to take pictures. Like let me just go up the elevator for heavens sake lol

[@33carleen]

This was cool! I will be visiting in August 😊😊

[@bastian_anibal]

Hello Johnny its been a loooong time i havent seen your videos. I was in Canada July until mid agugust including in Niagara and this place were totally fullpacked. Im surprised how empty it can get around Oktober

[@coldlakealta4043]

my daughter was there yesterday with a friend from LA. The person was totally overcome with the autumn leaves, but on an October Tuesday about the only thing running was the Falls. The parking lots were empty, and the viewing places empty. Won't be busy again till the winter-time light shows in a month or so.

[@TheAmishGamer]

Oh man, they didn’t let you get away with not having the photo! I must have had that “no, really..” look, as I managed to skip the photo at Skylon, Journey Behind The Falls and Niagara’s Fury this Summer xD It should totally be up to the visitor tbh..

[@Foodieshub11]

Very good presentation

[@jgraywolf7669]

wow your right across the boarder from me lol

[@photographybyjohngideon2948]

Sweet video johnny

[@packerone7962]

I worked up there back in the mid 80s

[@33carleen]

Can I decline this.. “Yes” Processed to take your pictures 😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️😳😂😂

[@welcome_Moscow_walks]

This is amazing!🤩

[@jordonvazquez7620]

This place for me is really worth the 3 hour drive.

[@christianhansen3292]

beautiful view of horse-shoe falls.

[@harrypotter249]

you shoud do the cn tower visit to

[@michelenedougherty161]

Happy Friday everyone !

[@noelsworldtraveldiscovery]

Great! ❤️❤️❤️

[@gabriellen.2886]

Hah. They either insist on photos for 1) prying loose a few more bucks from people who might like the idea of a "Look, Ma!"-type tourist shot, or 2) having a possible photo record of a guest/perp who does something then hopes to disappear in the crowd. Facial rec; past criminal history, etc. Years ago, I was in New Orleans, taking a tour boat to a small historic home on the river, and a guide insisted on pics of us. We didn't buy them - but they made sure they had taken them, of everyone. Made me wonder...

[@wrptkz]

5:13... 2 tickets ? Who's with you !!!

[@JohnnyStrides]

That's weird it said 2 tickets, I only purchased the one. I was with ActionKid who was over on the US side at the time.

[@wrptkz]

@@JohnnyStrides You and...your gimbal !

[@dylanreynolds8264]

good morning everyone

[@missyogiebear]

HIYA 👋🏻

[@johnburke1317]

Nice video

[@thomaslabelle3093]

Maybe 10 minutes from Skylon Tower there's one of the greatest greek restaurants of all time and I've been to Greece twice and didn't eat anything as tasty as that, it's called Greek on Portage. Thank me later it will change your life and it's insanely well priced compared to anything in the area. Tips from a resident of Niagara on the lake!

[@wrptkz]

3:33 There's no roof ! Easy to climb i guess...

[@Cutirimicuador]

Good idea...

[@evangelinebedal1497]

how is the elevator ride? was is like the regular elevator or a bit faster?

[@calebandgabsTV]

How much is the picture if we buy one? Thanks

[@roberttobolski6971]

Great work. I don,t go to Canada anymore only because of the stacking of sales tax and the way they bleed every penny they can get in taxes and parking fees. I stick to the American side and have just as good of a trip.

[@roguewarr4662]

And just think ,Action kid said he thinks the American side of the Falls is better to look at because your closer to the water. .Think not . Canadian side ,horseshoe falls are a much better attraction to look at then a pile of rocks .And a better side for attractions ,maybe that's why there more people visiting the Canadian side .Plus the American dollar goes farther over there.

[@jeanbolduc5818]

Niagara falls have been rated the worst tourist traps in the world in 2023 ....

[@JohnnyStrides]

Yup, it's #2 right behind Montreal ;)

Gay sounding voice
