Maid of the Mist
Mystical view of the Falls
Back to Maid of the Mist
It was great going right away in the morning because we noticed the boats were fuller as the day went on. We were able to move around on the boat to get spectacular views!!!

A great "must see/do" while visiting Niagara Falls. We hardly had to wait in line which made the ride much more enjoyable. Plan on getting a bit wet but not as much as Cave of the Winds.

The Maid of the Mist will be the highlight of your vacation. Absolutely unbelievable to be right at the foot of the falls watching the water flowing down toward you!

This will undoubtedly be the highlight of your trip to this area. It was one of those family moments that you will all share and never forget! If you don't like getting wet or having water in your face, then this is probably NOT for you. But let me say, first of all for the money, it is a good value. The experience of looking up at those mighty falls, while you feel so small and insignicant is short of AWESOME! & although a relatively short ride, it will NOT be short on the feeling you will have when you realize its profound experience, its beauty & wonder. If you ride on the boats lower level then you will probably stay dryer, but why not just be part of the experience & get WET! in summer, you'll dry quickly anyway! I highly recommend this experience!

I loved maid of the mist! I can't wait to go back! It's really loud and wet but its really fun! You get to go past the American Falls and then get so close to Niagra Falls, you get as wet (they provide ponchos) as if you were under it!

The first time was July 2002. We stayed on the American side..did Maid of the Mist from USA. Rode on the TOP....got very wet, nothing to hang on to and became quite dizzy from the waters. It was fun, though. This time, June 2008, we went again, however, stayed on Canadian side...which is definitely better as far as cleanliness and friendliness of the people....rode Maid of the Mist, took my mother who lived in the area as a teen but never saw the falls...LOVED IT!....we rode on the lower level of the boat which has plenty of places to hang on and I also pulled the hood of the rain poncho over my glasses so they would stay dry....it was fabulous. Everyone should do this at least once in their lifetime!

A great ride probably once in a life time experience. Get wet and see the falls up close. Make sure to take lots of pictures.

GREAT! We left from the US side and the trip was fantastic! The boat was full, but we had a great spot on the top deck right up front! We got just a little wet!
