Niagara Falls Day and Evening Tour (Small Group. Includes Boat Cruise & Wine Tasting)

See Niagara Falls in the Daytime and see the Falls light up in the Evening!

Niagara Falls comes alive in the evening. The Falls are illuminated in exciting colours. Throughout the summer months, fireworks (weather permitting) provide another reason to see the Falls in the evening (fireworks are expected to start at 09:30 PM on May 20, 2024, until October 10, 2024, every night).

The nighttime truly is the right time when visiting the Falls! Please note Niagara Falls day and evening tours depart back to Niagar Falls & Niagara-on-the-Lake hotels after 10 PM.

Enjoy the spectacular fireworks display and nightly Falls Illumination in stunning Niagara Falls, with its beautiful lights set against the world-famous natural wonder.
