★★★★★ | 4–5 hours
Explore Niagara Falls on a guided bus tour that makes sightseeing easy and enjoyable. Take a boat cruise into the mist, visit the Journey Behind the Falls, and enjoy live commentary from your guide. It’s a simple, fun way to see Niagara’s top two attractions in one trip.
Journey Behind the Falls is one of the most immersive Niagara Falls attractions, offering visitors the rare chance to stand just feet from the cascading water of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. As you descend through tunnels carved deep into the bedrock, the sound, vibration, and sheer force of the Falls surround you from every direction.
This unforgettable experience places you directly behind the thundering curtain of water, delivering one of the closest encounters with Niagara Falls available on the Canada side.
Journey Behind the Falls is a year-round Niagara Parks attraction located at Table Rock, beside the Canadian Horseshoe Falls. Visitors descend approximately 125 feet through tunnels that lead to lower observation decks and viewing portals positioned directly behind the falling water.
From these platforms, you experience Niagara Falls not just visually, but physically — feeling the mist, hearing the roar, and sensing the immense power of millions of gallons of water rushing past you every second.

Journey Behind the Falls stands apart from other Niagara Falls attractions because it offers a perspective unlike any other.
Whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this attraction reveals Niagara Falls in its most powerful form.
The journey begins with a descent into cool, rock-lined tunnels where the sound of the Falls grows louder with every step. As you approach the viewing portals, mist fills the air and the ground vibrates beneath your feet.
Stepping onto the outdoor observation decks, you stand at the base of the Horseshoe Falls, surrounded by rushing water and rising mist. It’s loud, thrilling, and unforgettable — an experience that fully captures the scale and force of Niagara Falls.
Journey Behind the Falls is open year-round, and each season offers a unique experience.
While summer provides the most powerful flow, many visitors enjoy the quieter atmosphere of fall and winter for photography and exploration.
Unlike viewing platforms or lookout points, Journey Behind the Falls places you directly in the environment of the waterfall itself.
Compared to the boat cruise, which offers views from the river below, Journey Behind the Falls provides an entirely different perspective — behind and beneath the cascading water. Many visitors choose to experience both for a complete understanding of Niagara Falls from every angle.
While Journey Behind the Falls can be visited independently, many travelers prefer a guided experience or a tour that includes transportation, attraction access, and additional viewpoints.

Our experience combines Journey Behind the Falls with comfortable transportation, expert guidance, and the option to include additional Niagara Falls highlights such as the famous boat cruise.
