Maid of the Mist Adventure Tour & Cave of the Winds Express-Pass Combo

The tour was great! I loved that we had a walking and trolly tour. Got to jump the line at the Cave of the Winds and got to experience the Maid of the Mist! Billy was an awesome tour guide too!

Hello the tour maid of the mist will be your best choice. Nick was an excellent guide gave us all the recommendations for this ride to be spectacular. They're the best. 100% recommended!

Our guide was Billy He was very kind, funny and professional. The landscapes are beautiful. He made our experience enjoyable.

So much fun! Definitely did not stay dry… cave of the winds was highlight for my 11 year old daughter

It was a great experience all around. Our tour guide Peter was awesome. It was great getting a text that morning of where to meet. He got all of our groups tickets so we didn’t have to wait in line. Didn’t wait but maybe 5 mins at each place to go through. The trolley took us to all the locations so that was great.. highly recommend getting the combo package. We will definitely be back again so we can go over to the Canada side..

Victor, our guide, was fantastic, and our whole experience was wonderful!! We would definitely recommend this combo to anyone!

First let me begin with the fact that it was beautiful. Having access to the cave of the winds was amazing and an opportunity that you should definitely not miss. The downfall to this package is the express combo, there is no express to this (maybe getting your tickets for the Maid of the Mist, you went right through). You were waiting in the normal lines and don’t skip anything. I think the longest wait was for the cave of the winds, the tickets were purchased for hours after the Maid of the Mist portion had been over. It did give you time to grab lunch, but most of businesses that serve lunch don’t open until 11 or after. The tour guide was knowledgeable (with facts about the falls and the power plant that once stood) social (did tell some corny jokes), and offered to take photos for people on the tour. It was worth the trip up, but I don’t think the tour was worth it. Maybe if I compared the prices to the “normal prices” it may have been worth it, but if this was a go at our own pace I would have liked to choose the times for the cave of the winds, as that didn’t have a tour guide.

We had an appointment for 9am but our dock was underwater and the workers failed to convey information in a timely fashion so by the time they had it fixed the line was to long for us to get in after we waited from 9am to 4pm. We where sent a voucher on the phone so we could come on a different day

First of all, tour what tour? The tour guide was a joke. Site says approx. 4 hours tour it was 1.5 hours of rambling on. The tour guide walked so fast he left the entire group behind. One lady even mentioned she was having hip pain. The tickets for maid of the mist is 25.95 x2, cave of the winds is 19.95 x2 and the trolly is 3 x4 dollars a ride. Do the math!! You do not need to pay a total of 240.00 for this tour package for the guide to leave you completely clueless. We started out with a group of 6, he left behind 3 groups because they didn't show up at 10am as he requested, if he had explained himself clearly or just waited a few minutes out of courtesy but no he didn't wait! He picked up a party of 5 and told them to join us because they needed direction to someplace, he dragged us and them along until they were annoyed and just tipped him so he can point them to the right direction. We met up at 830am and by 10am the so called tour was done. We stopped somewhere in the park and all he did was point to the direction of where we needed to go next and basically said "tour guides get 10% or more of the cost of the tour package as a tip", excuse me? What tour? There are signs everywhere of where you would need to go! By the way, our cave of the winds ticket was scheduled for 1:04pm, it was only 10am. We (and another group from the tour) literally went straight there and asked if they can make an exception and allow us to experience Cave of the winds at that time, luckily we were able to because this experience with this so called tour was aweful! We still don't have a clue for what we paid for! Waste of time and useless. Oh and the tour guy name is George, he said if it was a bad review to say his name was Peter.

We had a fabulous experience, made even more so by our tour guide, Nick. He was AWESOME. We felt like we were touring with a friend. He knew so much about The Falls and regaled us with lots of interesting stories and facts. Because of Nick, our tour of The Falls is one we will never forget.
