Cave of the Winds Tour | USA | PEAK SEASON
Soak up the experience of being closer to the waters of Niagara Falls than you thought possible, on a spectacular Niagara Falls tour. Your journey begins with an elevator ride 175 feet into the Niagara Gorge. Then, clad in a souvenir rain poncho and sandals, you’ll follow a tour guide over wooden walkways to the Hurricane Deck, less than 20 feet from the torrents of Bridal Veil Falls. On the deck, you’ll experience tropical storm-like conditions, getting doused with the spray from the rushing waters. A special Cave of the Winds viewing area has also been set up for handicapped individuals and adults with children in arms.
See a side of the falls few people get to experience by taking the Cave of the Winds journey after sunset, one of the most awe-inspiring Niagara Falls tours available to the public. Follow the rainbow of colors illuminating the falls right up to the Hurricane Deck for a breathtaking adventure you won’t forget.
Each spring, the Cave of the Winds tour opens to offer the Gorge Trip to the permanent deck just 75 feet from the base of the falls. Monday through Friday, you’ll see skilled workers rebuilding the decking that will allow summer visitors to reach the Hurricane Deck. This walkway is removed every November and reassembled each spring so it won’t be damaged by winter weather.
