Meet at the Power Portal Archway on Goat Island (inside Niagara Falls State Park). This is right next to Parking Lot 2. Look for your guide, who will arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of the Niagara Falls tour to check in (and welcome!) you for your tour. Our uniform is a light blue polo shirt and khaki-colored pants/shorts.
Take a short stroll over to the Niagara Falls State Park map, where your guide shows you places visited on today's tour, including your skip-the-line experience in the Cave of the Winds. Throughout the 1-hour tour, expect fun, lesser-known facts about the American side of Niagara Falls as you take in the thundering majesty of the Horseshoe Falls (the biggest waterfall at Niagara), American Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls. Feel the mist touch your face as you take a moment to yourself to appreciate the great outdoors. You'll visit both Goat Island (which borders Canada) as well as Luna Island, where you get to see the Bridal Veil Falls up close with your express pass to Cave of the Winds.
At the end of our award winning 1-hour guided walking tour of Goat Island, it’s time to experience one of the park’s major attractions: Cave of the Winds.
You won't wait in long lines because our guide will have reserved your access to "The World Changed Here" pavilion and movie. After enjoying these attractions, you are equipped with a rain poncho before you make the 150-foot descent into the Niagara Gorge, via an elevator, to arrive at the wooden decks. From here, you’re standing a mere 20 feet away from the Bridal Veil Falls. Your guide can’t guarantee rainbows, but it’s likely that you’ll see them here at the base!
This guided tour will meet up at the archway near both Cave of the Winds and Parking Lot 2 on Goat Island on the US side of Niagara Falls. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your tour start time.

First of all, one major benefit of visiting Niagara Falls on a tour is that operators such as Niagara Falls Adventure Tours are here on a daily basis. We know all the things that are worth doing while at Niagara Falls, as well as the things you easily risk missing out on unless you’ve already been here several times.
What’s more, years of experience have taught us how to structure each visit to make it unique, and help you get the most out of your time at Niagara Falls.
Often, having the help of a professional can help you move along more smoothly, and tick off various attraction points faster.
