Should you get the Niagara Falls Pass from Niagara Parks for your weekend getaway to Niagara Falls, Canada? When planning our trip to Niagara Falls, we decided to put the Niagara Parks, Niagara Falls Pass to the test. For $69, the pass includes:
Journey Behind The Falls
Butterfly Conservatory
White Water Walk
Whirlpool Aero Car
Floral Showhouse
2-Days of Falls Incline Railway Pass
2-Days WEGO Bus Pass
We added on the Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour with Niagara City Cruises and the Niagara Parks Power Station + The Tunnel.
The Tunnel at Niagara Falls in Canada is one of the newest attractions and it is AMAZING! Be sure to check it out. Our other big must is doing the Voyage to the Falls Boat Tour with Niagara City Cruises. The experience is stunning and one you'll likely remember for a lifetime!

Here’s a link to Niagara Parks: www.niagaraparks.com/
For dinner, we put Skylon Tower and Table Rock House Restaurant to the test. Dining in, or near tourist spots can be dicey. We wanted to test and see if these places were truly enjoyable, or if they were just coasting on location.
Reservations are a good idea for both:

I have decided that we are friends. Now I get to enjoy the fact that I have the coolest friends ever.
Ha ha. Sorry, but we're really a couple of dorks. :D
Video is awesome! You two are cool and funny, yet informative. My wife and I love the Falls and will visit again very soon!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We love the Falls too and wish we were visiting again soon. I think it'll be a bit before we make it to that area again.
I love the dynamic between you guys! It really helped brighten up the highlights of Niagra Falls! Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you. We are super happy to hear that. :)
Just took my 5th trip to Niagara Falls of 2023 i walked Niagara Falls State Park and Canadian Side for 16 hours Tuesday i was At Terrapin Point then Table Rock the back to Terrapin Point and back to Table Rock that was crazy fun i can definitely say i seen Every Angle of Horseshoe Falls several times in 1 Day lol!!!!!

Chris says, "Girls!" and rolls his eyes. Melissa smiles and lifts her shoulders and tilts her head left and right thinking of the gleeful union you two have.
@@chrisplusmelissa hahahaha HUGS!!!!

I was there as a kid and I now I have to go back.
Great video!!
It is so fun!
We can’t wait to walk up Clifton hill! There’s so much to and do.
Welcome back to Canada!!!
We like it in Canada!
@@chrisplusmelissa We love ❤️ having you here! Come back anytime!
Thank you for posting your video.I enjoyed it a lot and gave me many ideas. Planning to go next month and I had no idea about the pass!
You are so welcome! Have a great time!
Thanks guys, we live near hear and over the years have done a lot of the tours you did. The power station and the tunnel I have never heard of, I have to check it out. Next time you are back check out the Whirlpool Jet Boats.
Oooh. Thank you for the tips! It's a lovely area for sure!
I remember doing the Maid of the Mist (as it was called then) when I was a kid, before disposable plastic ponchos and you got to wear rubber raincoats that a thousand other people had worn before you. Much better now.
The Maid of the Mist was bought by an American company and only launches the boats from that side now. The new Niagara City boats company took over the old MotM Canadian docks
@@shoknifeman2mikado135 Yes, for a couple of years it was run by a different company and called Hornblower, now run by the new company as you mention.
@@robertpearson8798 Maid of the Mist is run on US side - with blue raincoats. Hornblower on Canadian side with red raincoats.
@@shoknifeman2mikado135 The Canadian side boat is now called the The Hornblower.
Very informative and helpful! We are headed to Niagara Falls in a few weeks and were just researching the pass. Fun video - thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Have a fun time!
My family and I will be visiting Niagara next month… it’s our first visit! Thank you for this video! Gave me an idea on what to do in Niagara!
Have fun! We're glad we could help!
What an awesome packed itinerary on the pass plus your add ons! Really enjoyed it. Welcome back!🇨🇦😁
Glad you enjoyed it!
My wife and I haven’t been to Niagara Falls since the 90’s. Now we’re going this summer and where taking our two daughters for their first trip! I hear there’s a Starbucks up there! We can’t wait to the new stuff and restaurants ! We’re renting a house near the falls.
Oh my... you're bound to have a blast.
Sweet Puscifer shirt! 🤘
And TOOL on Day 2? Hell yeah man! hahaha
Maynard rules! :D
Also, I would love to see you guys go white water rafting
Someday! Maybe.
👍
Wait, what, no Clifton Hill?!
Seriously, hope you guys made it to Niagara-on-the-lake.
Great video as always.
We walked up through Clifton Hill... it felt a bit too Vegas like. :D Sadly, we missed Niagara-on-the-lake.
My wife saw about falls by the lake. .she can’t wait . There’s a lot of stores. . A
Hey Chris! Do you ever look at Melissa and just say to yourself "Damn, I'm one helluva lucky guy."
All the time!
@@chrisplusmelissa As you should! From the video's she seems extremely awesome!
What a cute couple. great video. If we only have half a day at the fall what would be the must dos?
Thank you! We'd probably recommend the boat ride up to the falls. The views are great. And getting that close gives you an idea of the power of the falls. You'll get wet, but we found it worth it.
I live less than an hour from the Falls, have done many of the same things that they did, and I would agree that the boat ride is the most must do activity.
That brick patio area near Table Rock Restaurant....where you are so close to the falls...is that free? Just walking outdoors near the falls.
It is free. It's a public sidewalk from what I can tell.
Planning a trip to the niagara falls (1st time) from the US what would u suggest fly from florida to ontario or into buffalo NY and pardon my ignorance can u rent a car in buffalo NY and drive into Canada and return back in the US? Thanx keep the vdos coming,,,,
Hi! I'm not sure we've got enough expertise to be the best advisors here... but I do know that you can certainly rent a car in the USA and drive it into Canada. You'd probably want to ask your rental company however as there may be insurance things you need to do for being in Canada. And I figure, no matter the side you choose, it'll be neat to see Niagara Falls! Have a great time.
Which would you suggest or recommend more Table Rock Restaurant or the Skylon?
Probably the Skylon. But both were good to us.
Thank you so much for the speedy response and recommendation. ❤

You had bus passes well how long did it take you to get a bus each time you had to get one . did you have to wait long for each stop ?
Not long at all... I don't think we waited more than 15 minutes at any given time.
@@chrisplusmelissa Thank you
I've lived my entire 61 yrs within a 30 min car ride from any of those places, yet, I've never done any of those things, although, I have a vague recollection of being on the Spanish Aero car ride as part of a school trip.... maybe?
My wife is looking forward to go by lake too
You said fireworks is every night. Are you sure? I haven't gone in a few years but it used to only be on weekends and holidays. Illumination of the falls is year round though. The pass has changed a little bit over the years, my husband and I did the pass over 20 years ago during our honeymoon, but we purchased additional days of bus pass and spread it out over a week since my husband doesn't handle the constant tourist thing well.
I do believe at the time we did the video, they were doing fireworks nightly. It's hard to remember it all. :D
Canada is your favourite place in the world!!! Now you know I watch until the end!
How much was the pass?
The pass was $69 Canadian. We did add on the Power Plant/Tunnel + guided tour for about $38.
@@chrisplusmelissa I was at Niagara Falls a few times as a kid then again a few years ago. I won't say how many decades later. Lol. But I've never done all these cool things. Just go look at the Falls then go to the casino. Lol.
We did try the casino too... it took our money faster than all the attractions did! :D
@@chrisplusmelissa Lol. Casinos are extremely good at that.
Hey. How did you get the boat pass with niagara parks pass?
Sorry, I don't recall. However, I think we just googled niagara falls boat tour and found the one doing the Canada side tours.
I go up to Niagara Falls 2-3 times a year from Ohio and I have a passport. I always do both sides of Niagara Falls start on Goat Island NY and walk my way over to Table Rock Canadian Side so many great views of all 3 Falls people really miss out skipping the USA Side from my Experience yes the Canadian Side has hands down the panoramic views of Niagara Falls period!!!!! and you can get pretty damn close to Horseshoe Falls, however on the American Side you are able to get up close and really feel Power of all 3 Falls that simply cannot be done from Canadian Side yes the views are close up and block the whole waterfall from being seen but being able to stand 2 feet from the American Falls at Luna Island and see and feel water rushing over is crazy fun Experience so much water 2 feet in front of you!!!!! Also you can get pretty close to Horseshoe Falls on Goat Island like 4 feet in front the angle is very Unique basically looking at a side view of Horseshoe Falls it's like you can tell it's a Horseshoe but doesn't quite look like it but I always tell people if they can do both sides!!!!!
Good tips. Thank you for those.
@Chris+Melissa I got a video on my channel that shows different view points of Niagara Falls from both sides
What month of the year are you there?
We were there in early July.
@DavidandSarah I Hope I'm doing this right and tagging you correctly. One, you guys may enjoy each others content. Two, I know it's a longshot but I would love to see a collab of Americans and Aussies enjoying my home country Canada.
Thank you! We'll have to check them out.
Chris, I'm disappointed in you, you missed an amazing Vegas vacation clip with the water leak.
I am completely unaware of what you speak of.
@@chrisplusmelissa th-cam.com/video/SnmX4f6VBRw/w-d-xo.html about a minute into the clip
We’re thinking on looking at there pass! What do you think is it worth it??
We do think it was.
Where staying for 4 day’s 😊
You'll be so busy! We hope you have a blast.
