4950 Clifton Hill, Niagara Falls · Niagara Falls, ON

Why you should go…

Glide above the lights of Clifton Hill in enclosed, climate-controlled gondolas with sweeping views of both waterfalls on every rotation. It runs day and night, rain or shine, and the nighttime ride over the illuminated falls and neon strip is the showstopper. Quick, easy, and worth it for the photos alone.
