Niagara Falls: Guided Tour from New York + 1-Night Stay + Outlet Shopping

About this experience

This guided tour from New York takes in Niagara Falls across two days, travelling north by air-conditioned coach with a live guide throughout. The route passes the Delaware Water Gap before reaching Watkins Glen State Park in the Finger Lakes region, where the group walks through Watkins Glen Canyon past a series of waterfalls. In winter, the itinerary substitutes Montour Falls as the natural stop before the group continues to Niagara. For anyone planning things to do in New York that extend beyond the city, this two-day format gives enough time to take in both the falls and the surrounding landscape without rushing. On arrival at Niagara, the guided visit covers the US side: American Falls, Goat Island, and the 3 Sisters Islands. Evening visits include the illuminated falls, lit in colour after dark. Between May and October, admission to the Maid of the Mist boat ride is included, bringing guests close to the base of Horseshoe Falls aboard the operator's vessel. In winter, when the boat is closed, the itinerary switches to the Power Vista Hydroelectric station and either Cave of the Winds or Journey Behind the Falls. Overnight accommodation with tax and a continental breakfast are included, and the return journey south includes a guided stop at a large outlet mall. Tips and meals are not covered. The tour is wheelchair accessible, and tickets are available with free cancellation before a specified date. Vehicles are not sold through this listing. Any vehicle used during the experience is supplied by the operator and returned at the end.
