Reservations are not necessary and tickets can be purchased at the attraction ticket window. During a typical season the boat rides below Niagara Falls opens in late April or early May and runs until mid to late October.

All guests are issued a disposable plastic poncho to wear during the tour which will keep you reasonably dry. When the boat gets close to the Canadian Falls is where you will encounter the majority of mist. If you wish to stay dry simply move to another location on the boat where there is less mist. The tour lasts 15-20 minutes. For clothing, summer is for shorts and t-shirts. A pair of beach shoes or sneakers work fine but don’t wear anything you wouldn’t want to get damp. For spring and fall weather you need to dress appropriately for the local weather and just expect to get slightly damp. Usually you will have the ability to get great photos right up until you get close to the base of the Canadian Falls. Remember that even a slight mist on your camera lens will ruin any photo!

The entrance is in Queen Victoria Park less than a minute walk from the base of Clifton Hill. Parking is available at one of three very large parking lots near Queen Victoria Park.

This video displays the old Maid of the Mist boat passing in front of the American Falls.

Over 70% of visitors rate the Holiday Inn as very good to excellent. Location is great as it’s close to the Falls and the Fallsview Casino. There is also a great selection of nearby restaurants at the Hilton Fallsview and the Casino.

It is only a six minute walk to Queen Victoria Park and fifteen minutes to the Boat ride below the Falls ticket window. If you are not interested in all the kitsch of Clifton Hill and want to be closer to the Table Rock House and Journey Behind the Falls this is the place for you!

While the Best Western is not within walking distance of the Falls we think this is a high quality hotel for the price. Reviews are almost always very good with very few complaints.

For those of you who might visit Niagara Falls during the off-season the large swimming pool is very inviting and of course the kids just love it.

Niagara Falls is a natural phenomenon that attracts millions of tourists every year. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, there are plenty of things to do in Niagara Falls that will make your trip unforgettable.

Niagara Falls History

The history of Niagara Falls is as vast and beautiful as the falls themselves. About 12,000 years ago, erosion from melting Ice Age glaciers created the Niagara River’s majestic waterfalls, which run along the border between Canada and the United States. These natural marvels are one of North America’s most popular tourist destinations in Niagara Falls State Park.

Due to its location on the southern end of Lake Erie and at the beginning of Lake Ontario, this region has always been an important transportation corridor for travelers heading westward across North America.

Fun Activities in Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls has something fun for everyone in your group, regardless of age. Here are a few of the most popular activities people do when visiting Niagara Falls.

Take a Boat Cruise

Niagara Falls is best experienced by taking a boat cruise. However, get closer than most tourists by taking an evening cruise where you can see how different lights play off each other at night. Niagara City Cruises is the official supplier to Niagara Parks, providing Canada’s only Niagara Falls boat tour experience.

Niagara wine tours traverse the region in search of the perfect Chardonnay, double decker tours lend a different perspective to the city, or Niagara adventure tours take visitors on a whirlwind of the area’s most exciting attractions.

Taking a tour in Niagara Falls will allow you to interact with knowledgeable tour guides that can give you all the valuable tid- bits of everything Niagara.

What is the Best Time of Year to See Niagara Falls?

The peak tourist season is summer. However, spring and fall provide for a quiet getaway if you prefer not to deal with crowds and long lines.

However, not to be overlooked, Niagara Falls has a breathtaking calm during winter when ice and snow turn the Falls into a majestic winter castle.

The weather at Niagara Falls can dramatically affect whether your trip will go smoothly or turn into a disaster zone. Between June and September (and even into early October), the average temperature is in the 80s. Spring and fall temperatures range from 40F to 70F, while the cold Canadian wind keeps winter below zero.

Make sure to wear layers no matter when you visit Niagara Falls, so you are prepared for any weather changes.

Is Niagara Falls in Canada or New York?

Niagara Falls is located in both countries because it lies on the border between Canada and the United States. However, activities, dining, accommodations, and shopping vary significantly between the Canadian and American sides.

Do I Need a Passport to Go to Niagara Falls, Canada?

Yes. A Passport (or a Passport Card or Enhanced Driver’s License if coming by land) is required for crossing the border into Canada unless you are age 15 or younger. Please visit the government website for any further details.

Hornblower Cruises has a storied history that began in 1974 with just two ships sailing in Berkeley, California. In 1980, the company changed ownership and moved its focus to San Diego, San Francisco, Newport Beach, and Marina del Rey, expanding quickly by acquiring other charter yacht businesses. The company’s headquarters, located at the iconic Steel Electric-class Santa Rosa ferry anchored at Pier 3 in San Francisco, remains there to this day.

In 1992, the company was renamed Hornblower Cruises & Events under the sole ownership of Terry MacRae, who recognized that the company wasn’t just a cruise operator for businesses but also for special events like marriage ceremonies, film shoots, soirées, and more! Hornblower Cruises & Events has continued to grow, and in 2019, it acquired Entertainment Cruises, which doubled the number of ferries and locations where they operate. Today, with a fleet of over 80 ships, Hornblower sails from 19 different ports, a far cry from its humble beginnings.

Hornblower Canada Company now operates the Niagara Falls Gorge Boat Tour from the Canadian side of the Niagara River, near the magnificent Niagara Falls. The Niagara Falls Cruises previously belonged to the Maid of the Mist, which now sails out of Niagara Falls, New York. The Niagara Falls Cruises have two impressive ships – the Niagara Wonder and Niagara Thunder – with a capacity of up to 700 passengers each.

Niagara City Cruises By Hornblower Vs Maid of the Mist

Before I even started planning a trip to Niagara Falls, I knew I wanted to do the Maid of the Mist boat ride.  It’s the iconic thing to do, right? Well, once I started doing my research, I learned there is also the option of doing Hornblower Niagara Cruises (now called Niagara City Cruises anchored by Hornblower).  

I wasn’t sure how to choose the best Niagara Falls boat tour or if we should try to do both?  Our time was limited, so realistically we needed to pick either the Maid of the Mist or the Hornblower.

I wanted to share my personal experience and research with you to help make the Niagara City Cruises by Hornblower vs Maid of the Mist decision easier for you.

Niagara Falls Boat Tour Price Differences

How to choose the best niagara cruise, niagara falls night cruise, what to expect on a niagara falls cruise, niagara falls boat trip video, maid of the mist tickets, hornblower niagara cruise tickets, maid of the mist or hornblower niagara cruise, expert tips for your niagara falls boat tour, hornblower vs maid of the mist: what’s the difference.

The biggest difference between Niagara City Cruises by Hornblower and the Maid of the Mist is the history.  

You may remember the Hornblower cruise we did to Alcatraz Island last year.  While Hornblower has been around for over 35 years, they have only been offering cruises on the Niagara River since 2014.  The Maid of the Mist first carried passengers across the river in 1846! In 1848, when the bridge across the river opened, demand for the Maid of the Mist fell.  They rebranded the Maid of the Mist as a tourist boat and it has been taking passengers ever since.  

Honestly, there isn’t much of a difference between the two Niagara Falls tours.  Both boats take basically the same route on the 20-minute long cruise and go close to all three of the waterfalls (the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Horseshoe Falls) that make up Niagara Falls.  The Hornblower Cruise is the boat tour in Niagara Falls, Canada and the Maid of the Mist docks on the American side, literally across the river from each other.  

Only Niagara City Cruises offers the Niagara Falls Fireworks Cruise.  The weekend we were in Niagara there were no fireworks so we didn’t get the chance to do the evening boat tour. 

Niagara boat cruise prices are pretty similar, but the Hornblower cruise is a little bit more. 

You pay for the Hornblower Cruise Niagara Falls in Canadian Dollars and the Maid of the Mist in US Dollars.  Similarly, the Hornblower Cruise is included in the Canada attraction packages and the Maid of the Mist is in the American ones. (More on Getting Tickets Below)

The cost difference for the cruises might be more if you have kids.  Maid of the Mist is free for kids 5 and under with an accompanying adult, while Hornblower only lets kids 2 and under on for free.  It is a minor detail, but if you have twin 5-year-olds like one of my readers, Pauline, it can add up.

Both cruises provide all guests with ponchos.  Spoiler alert: you will need them!  The Maid of the Mist poncho is blue and the poncho for the Hornblower Cruise is red.  As long as you get a poncho, that should be fine.  Color should not be a deciding factor in choosing your Niagara Falls Boat Tour!

Since the differences between the two Niagara Falls boat tours are insignificant, the deciding factor is which side of Niagara Falls you are on.  Border crossing does take time, and there are fees (only a few dollars) whether you walk across the Rainbow Bridge or drive across the border.

If you are on the American side, then do the Maid of the Mist.  If you are on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, then it makes more sense to do the Niagara City Cruise.  We were staying on the Canadian side, so we decided to take the Hornblower.  We could have also done the Maid of the Mist if we would have done the boat ride the same day we did the Cave of the Winds since that is on the American side of the falls.

Additionally, the season for Hornblower cruises is slightly longer than the Maid of the Mist.  Hornblower operates their daytime cruises from April 1st until November 30th, weather permitting.  Maid of the Mist ends their season in early November.  (If your trip is during the off-season, check out these ideas for things to do in Niagara Falls in the winter .)

If you are concerned about COVID, Hornblower does have the vaccination and mask requirements to reduce your risk.  Those who are not vaccinated would only have the option of going on the Maid of the Mist.

Luckily, regardless of what boat you choose, it will be an experience you will always remember.  We had a great time!

Only Hornblower offers cruises to see Niagara Falls at night.  You can do the Niagara Falls Fireworks Cruise on evenings when there are fireworks scheduled.  The evening cruises run from the beginning of May until the end of October.  This is one of the most romantic things to do in Niagara Falls .

These cruises last 40 minutes and do sell out quickly, so you will want to get your tickets in advance here .  The evening cruise is more expensive than the daytime ones because it is longer.  I should also mention that these extended night cruises do include a cash bar, light snacks for purchase, and music.

All the evening cruises are described as a “light mist experience” rather than the “full mist experience” of the daytime cruises.  I am guessing with the “light mist experience” you would still get wet.  The boats do have indoor areas if you want to make sure you stay completely dry.  I’m not sure you would get the full experience if you stay inside the whole cruise though.

My experience on my Niagara boat tour was different than I expected.  I thought that as we got close to the Falls the water would get pretty rough.  That wasn’t the case.  The water seemed to be pretty calm but the mist and wind were much more powerful than what I expected.

You need that poncho and you need to tie it tight.  I had to hold on to poncho in order to keep my hair somewhat dry.  Even with holding onto my poncho my hair did get wet though!

Since you will get wet anyway, it could be a good thing to do when it is raining in Niagara .  Looking back it would have been nice to have some waterproof covers for our shoes ( like these ).  Even with shoe covers, you still need to allow time for the rest of you to dry! 

We were happy we were able to go back to the hotel and change before dinner.  If you do your Niagara boat tour on a chilly day, you will want to get out of your wet clothes as soon as possible.  Ladies, you will also want to be sure to bring waterproof mascara !

We used a GoPro Hero 5 Black for our video.  It is waterproof and great for capturing action video like this. (Note: We have since upgraded to the GoPro Hero 7 Black and love it – click here to check price and availability for the GoPro 7 ).

Buying Niagara Falls Boat Tour Tickets

Unlike many other popular tourist attractions, you do not need to buy tickets for the Maid of the Mist or the Hornblower in advance.  The boats run frequently and carry hundreds of people, so they don’t sell out. 

While you can buy tickets online, you cannot book a specific tour time for daytime cruises.  We bought our tickets at the booth in front of the Hornblower Cruise when we were ready to do the boat ride.

It may seem like there is a long wait for the tours, but since boats are large and run every 15 minutes the lines will move reasonably fast.  During peak days, I would recommend going early to minimize your wait time.

It wasn’t crowded when we went, so we could have gotten right on when we got to the dock but we decided to wait and be the first people to board the next boat.  That way we could get the best seat – well, place to stand. You don’t need to worry about where you end up standing though. Visibility is limited and you’re going to get wet anyway!

For Maid of the Mist, you can purchase tickets online in advance here but they are not for a specific day or time.  For 2022, adults tickets cost $25.25 USD and children tickets (ages 6-12) are $14.75 USD.  Remember children 5 and under are free with an accompanying adult.

If you are looking for a Maid of the Mist discount and plan on seeing other attractions on the New York side of the Falls, you may want to purchase the Niagara Falls USA Discovery Pass .

We purchased our tickets at the terminal right before the cruise, but you can purchase online in advance to save time.  Tickets purchased online here . 

For the daytime tickets, you can choose a specific day but not a specific time.  Your tickets are an email with a barcode which you can either print out or show on your phone (you must be online).  If you wait to purchase the tickets until you arrive, you can opt out of the funicular and save $3 CAD, but you may have to wait in line.

For the evening cruises, I would recommend booking as early as possible because tickets are limited and they do sell out.  You can also save money by buying the Day & Night Cruise package.

Going on a Niagara Falls boat cruise should be on your bucket list.  Both the Maid of the Mist and the Hornblower Niagara Cruise offer similar experiences.  Don’t feel like you have to choose the Maid of the Mist because of the iconic name, the Hornblower can be a good alternative especially if you stay on the Canadian side.  Whichever boat ride you choose, I am sure you will love it. 

Have you been on either the Hornblower Niagara Cruises or the Maid of the Mist or both? I would love to hear about your experience.

• Location is the best way to choose when you are debating the Maid of the Mist vs Hornblower.  If you are on the American Side of Niagara Falls, choose the Maid of the Mist.  If you are on the Canadian Side, go with Niagara City Cruises by Hornblower, it’s basically the Canadian Maid of the Mist.  
• The daytime boat tours do not need to be prebooked, but if you want to do the night cruise you should book in advance here .

How Long Is The Hornblower Niagara Cruise?

The Hornblower Niagara Cruise is an iconic boat ride in Niagara Falls, Canada. Formerly called Maid of the Mist (a similar boat ride on the American side is still called Maid of the Mist), this boat ride is operated by Hornblower Niagara Cruises. There are two types of boat rides operated by Hornblower Niagara Cruises:

• Voyage to the Falls boat tour
• Falls Fireworks Cruise

The boat ride is open May-November. Dates may vary depending on weather conditions. The boat ride remains closed in winter.

Hornblower Niagara Cruises is located on Niagara Parkway at the bottom of Clifton Hill. Passengers take the funicular to descend into Niagara Gorge and reach the boat docks.

Ride frequency is every 15-30 minutes depending on time of day. The boats used are catamarans with a capacity of nearly 700 passengers.

Captained by experienced navigators, the boat travels upstream on the Niagara River towards the American and Bridal Veil Falls. It then heads into the basin of the Horseshoe Falls, where the mist from the waterfall is strong enough to drench passengers.

How long is the Hornblower Niagara Cruise?

Duration of the two Hornblower Niagara boat rides is different.

Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour is a day tour and is 20 minutes long.

Falls Fireworks Cruise is a night tour and is operated only when there are fireworks scheduled by Niagara Parks. It is a 40-minute boat ride (9:30 p.m. – 10:10 p.m.).

You can check the Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour sailing schedule and book your boat ride.
