Journey Behind the Falls is one of Niagara Falls’ most exhilarating attractions, allowing visitors to step right into the heart of the iconic falls. Here, you can access a series of tunnels that lead you directly behind the curtain of water, offering a unique perspective that few get to experience. The sound of the rushing water is deafening, and the sheer power of the falls is awe-inspiring. As you emerge from the tunnels, you’ll find yourself on a viewing platform where you can feel the mist on your face as the water crashes down just a few feet away.

The attraction is open year-round, with extended hours during the peak tourist season, making it accessible to all visitors regardless of when they arrive.

This is not just a visual treat; it’s an adventure that engages all the senses, making it a must-see when visiting Niagara Falls.
