Typically people go to Niagara Falls to witness a beautiful act of nature, the power, strength and beauty of the waterfalls. However, Niagara offers its visitors so much more than a fantastic view! 

Visit the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens which attract nearly a million visitors each year because of its many beautiful plants and flowers which are maintained by a select group of students from the nearby horticultural school. There is a wide variety of trees, shrubs and flowering cherry trees. There are also a wide variety of roses and irises. As blooming is seasonal, make sure to call ahead or plan your trip for the summer months.  

Go for an adventurous walk called the “White Water Walk” which takes you through one of the area’s narrowest formations, where the power of the water is simply astounding! Visitors here can witness the strength of the current first hand from the observation platform, or for an even closer vantage point, make your way along the boardwalk that runs alongside the river. Make sure to wear a waterproof jacket as you are sure to get wet! 

Take a tour on a red Double Decker bus, which will introduce you to the wonders of the Niagara Region. The popular tour makes a 30 mile circuit and visits such attractions as the Maid of the Mist (a boat which takes you right near the falls) and the awe-inspiring cable-drawn Aero Car, which is not for the faint of heart!!!! 

Niagara Falls also offers bird lovers a tropical paradise located at Bird Kingdom Niagara. This aviary gives its visitors an otherworldly feels as it is designed in part to replicate the ruins of a tropical rainforest in Central America. Here the birds fly freely about unhindered; they also display their variety of colors and songs. Visitors can feed the lorikeets, which is fun for the entire family. Guided tours of the facility are available on request.

Niagara also offers its visitors an array of activities to do at night, from heading to Fallsview Casino, to dancing at one of Niagara’s premier nightclubs such as the Dragonfly Night Club. This club is both sleek and chic, and is a great place for an extra special experience, so gather your friends and rent a private room which offers personalized service as well as ensured admission. 

Whether you are dressed to impress at the Dragonfly Night Club, playing the slots at one of the region’s many casinos, or enjoying the fantastic beauty of the Falls; Niagara offers its visitors a fun-filled adventure for all.
