Full description
Back on the main level, continue into the new Daredevils Exhibit—Niagara’s latest attraction showcasing real barrels and true accounts of those who attempted the plunge. Learn who survived, who didn’t, and why these stunts became a defining part of local lore. Your guide brings these larger-than-life characters into focus as you explore the displays.
Then set off on a scenic, easy-paced walk (approximately 1 kilometer or 0.6 miles) along the boardwalk toward Journey Behind the Falls. Pause at prime photo spots while hearing stories about Niagara’s place in pop culture and history.
Your tour concludes at the entrance to Journey Behind the Falls, where your guide will say goodbye and provide your timed-entry ticket, allowing you to skip the general public line for a speedy entrance. Descend into tunnels and step onto the lower viewing platform just feet from the roaring cascade. Explore at your own pace as you feel the mist, hear the thunder, and experience the falls from an unforgettable angle.

Reviews
The tour was great and having priority on the boat was excellent
If you’re reading this, book it now! You’ll be one of the first on the boat and get the best spot before anyone else. Daniela (aka “Daniel”) treated us exceptionally well from start to finish. Her knowledge of the falls and the stories behind them was the perfect balance of informative and entertaining. She keeps you laughing throughout the tour and enjoys the experience right alongside you as if it were her first time seeing it. 10/10 — I would recommend this tour to anyone. As an added bonus, our group had only four people, which made the experience absolutely incredible and much more personal. Thanks again, Daniel! 😉
