Sunshine, fresh mist, and Canadian flags – a perfect moment from our summer Niagara Falls walking tour.

About this activity

Your Niagara adventure begins at Casino Niagara Falls, where you’ll meet your friendly local guide. From there, enjoy an easy 500m walk total on a mix of paved sidewalks and natural park paths through the stunning Oakes Garden Theatre.

Built into the natural contours of the landscape, Oakes Garden features a curved pergola overlooking a central amphitheater, plus a serene Japanese-style garden with a lily pond and charming wishing bridge—a tranquil escape in the heart of Niagara Falls. Framed by ornamental iron gates and Queenston limestone, it creates a spectacular entrance to Queen Victoria Park at the foot of Clifton Hill.

Continue along the scenic Niagara Parkway for epic views of the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Horseshoe Falls, with stories, legends, and insider tips from your guide. The tour ends at Niagara City Cruises—poncho on, then board Voyage to the Falls for an unforgettable ride into the mist.
