Niagara Falls
Straddling the Canadian-United States International Border and both in the Province of Ontario and the State of New York, Niagara Falls attracts some 12 Million tourists to her majestic awesome beauty each year. The mighty river plunges over a cliff of dolostone and shale. Niagara Falls is the second largest falls on the globe next to Victoria Falls in southern Africa.
Whirlpool Aero Car
High above the racing Niagara River, you'll look eye to eye with birds soaring effortlessly on thermal updrafts rising from the gorge. Suspended in space you share their point of view. Far below the torrent of water abruptly changes direction, creating one of the world's most mesmerizing natural phenomenon - The Niagara Whirlpool. Sometimes frightening and always unforgettable.
Jetboat Niagara
Welcome to the Niagara River - the white water playground for Jetboat Niagara. The river requires this jetboat to use most of its 1500 horsepowers to navigate waves such as Flash Flood and Big Kahuna. Our Coast Guard certified captains and crew have thrilled and entertained jet boaters from ages 6 to 96! See you there!
Skylon Tower
Because of the height of the Skylon, 520 feet, and its location being only a short distance from the international boundary, approval for its construction was required from both the Canadian and American air transport authorities.
Come enjoy this superb dining experience matched only by the majestic Falls below. Within the Dome of the Skylon Tower, the circular design and provision of three separate and complete levels make it possible for all visitors to enjoy an unobstructed view. Viewing conditions are further enhanced through the use of a special grey glass in the windows to diffuse sunlight and reduce glare. The indoor/outdoor Observatory, the highest vantage point in Niagara, is located on the third floor of the Dome. On a clear day visitors can see close to 8,000 square miles of Canada and the United States, including the skylines of Toronto and Buffalo.

Wineries
Niagara is Canada's most celebrated grape and wine producing region. The blending of soils and temperate climate that stretches summers into one of the longest growing seasons in Canada, nourishes and matures grapes for the finest wines. Old and New World expertise combined with some of North America's finest quality grapes produce award winning wines worthy of their international acclaim. All of the Niagara-on-the-Lake wineries offer tours and tastings of VQA and blended wines.
Niagara-on-the-Lake
Niagara-on-the-Lake, often called the loveliest town in Ontario, has a long and distinguished history. Site of the old Neutral Indian village of Onghiara, it was settled at the close of the American Revolution by Loyalists coming to Upper Canada, many of whom had been members of the much feared Butler's Rangers based during the American Revolution at Fort Niagara, then under British control. Today, over two hundred years after its founding, Niagara-on-the-Lake hums with a different kind of traffic. Its many attractions include historic sites - Fort George and the Historical Society Museum, the Shaw Festival with its three theatres, the marina, our heritage business district for shopping, golf courses, parks and beautiful farmland, agricultural markets and our world famous Niagara wineries. Our town attracts thousands of visitors who stroll the old streets, enjoy the comforts of fine hotels or our charming bed and breakfast homes, dine in our many varied restaurants, and, if even for a little while, journey back in time to a more leisurely time - the age of Niagara-on-the-Lake!
