Getting started

Your adventure at Niagara Falls begins with an exhilarating view from Skylon Tower's sky-deck, offering panoramic vistas of the majestic waterfalls. From here, you'll see the bustling Niagara Parks Power Station below and witness how the International Control Dam directs waters to plunge 180 feet down into the Niagara Gorge.

Niagara Falls: more than just a waterfall!

Start your journey by exploring the expansive 2200-foot-long Tailrace Tunnel, leading you to an observation deck with unique perspectives of the Horseshoe Falls. Don't miss the Illumination Tower's dazzling nightly light show and make sure to visit the historic statue dedicated to Nikola Tesla.

Niagara Falls and hydroelectricity: a story for the ages

Discover how Niagara Falls played a pivotal role in The Current War, featuring insights into Nikola Tesla’s contributions. Visit the pioneering Niagara Parks Power Station — the world's first hydroelectric power plant where you can interact with original machinery. Descend 180 feet through glass to witness the ancient power plant structure carved out over 100 years ago using dynamite and pickaxes alone. Conclude your tour by walking through the Tailrace Tunnel, leading to a viewing deck that has been an exit point for water into the Niagara River for more than a century, offering unmatched views of both Horseshoe and American Falls.
