Niagara Falls

Pros: Wonderful adventure. Kids love it.
Cons: You might want to check the weather report before you go.

We had been very much looking forward to seeing Niagara Falls on our vacation. It was definitely going to be one of the major highlights of the whole trip. I personally had not been to Niagara Falls since I went with my parents when I was about 12 years...

Pros: This is a wonderful area to discover. There is so much to do and see.
Cons: Driving along the river can be painfully slow.

With the advent of the airplane, high speed travel and more sophisticated travelers, Niagara Falls is no longer that #1 destination of Newlyweds but in many aspects it's still a wonderful way to experience a carefree week or two with a loved one or as ...

Pros: Great views of both falls.
Cons: cannot pull off of road anywhere. Pay to park.

We went to Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada this past July 20-22, 2004. I had only been somewhere in Canada one other time in my life and I was too young to remember anything more than fishing on a lake with my grandfather and I caught the most ...

Pros: fairly inexpensive, beautiful views, plenty to see and do
Cons: weekends are crowded, transportation can be a problem, nearby tourist traps

My husband just doesn't get time off in the summer. It's just a sad fact that we deal with it. Well, mostly I deal with it. If my children want to see anything in the summer, it's up to me. You could either say I am very brave or very insane to take ...

Pros: Great day trip or romantic weekend. Good for couples and also families
Cons: watch your exchange rates, cheezy tourist traps

I'm lucky to have this once (and still) a popular honeymoon destination practically in my backyard. Well, not quite in my backyard, but within an 1.5 hour drive. I didn't realize how lucky I was to have this natural wonder nearby me until I went away to...

Pros: Niagara Falls are awesome! You will always remember a trip to the Falls.
Cons: Plan ahead. Be sure to bring ID for everyone.

Niagara Falls is an experience you will never forget. No matter what they do short of draining the falls (which they did once on the American side after a rock slide), this is a site to see. Even though they have gone “tourist city” around the...

Pros: The Falls, attractions for everyone
Cons: Denny's, crowded

Some of you may have realized that I am on a review-spree on reviews based on my recent Orlando vacation. Well, I felt like writing about Niagara Falls as I sit here anxiously awaiting an attraction to Universal Studios to be added to the database so I...

Cons: typical high prices prevalent at most tourist locales

Review Topic:  Sights & Attractions

I have never been impressed with nature. I've seen the white sandy beaches of Barbados, the rugged peaks and valleys of Colorado and have even ventured into the Everglades in Florida and I...

Pros: BEAUTIFUL scenery! Lots to do
Cons: None

My husband has never been to the Eastern half of Canada. It has been 20 years since I have been to Niagara Falls. Our 10th Anniversary was approaching, so therefore we felt a visit to Niagara Falls was in order.

We arrived in early May of...

Pros: The Falls and surrounding scenery, many places to go and see
Cons: Can be quite touristy, exchange rates can be disappointing, crowds at times

The first time I went to Niagara Falls, I decided to go in early December. My tactic being that it would be less crowded than usual, since millions of people visit the falls every year. I was surprised to find that there was a fair amount of tourists...

Pros: Wonderful Places to visit and Thing to do for All ages
Cons: Expensive unless you plan ahead

Niagara Falls is truly a wonder of the world. It is majestic, beautiful, and powerful to behold. To see pictures of it, one would think, "How lovely." But, to see it in person is an experience that awes each visitor to this natural wonder. To...

Pros: natural wonder, always something different to do, Maid of the Mist
Cons: crowds (especially in the summer), some tacky tourist traps

Living in Erie, Pennsylvania, I am lucky enough to be in close proximity to four major cities: Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Buffalo and Niagara Falls. I’ve gone to the first three for concerts on several occasions, while the last is always a good excuse for a ...

Pros: Loads of fun for the whole family!
Cons: Tourist traps, watch out for them, parking is difficult and expensive.

Pros: Wonderful scenery & terrific Boyds bear shopping
Cons: Canadian money

I prefer the view from the Canadian side, which is where the picture is taken from. We have been to Niagara Falls in all seasons. Do not miss the falls at night, the lighting makes the water seem even more powerful.

I cannot imagine anyone...

Pros: Stunning natural encounter
Cons: Too many tourons, too much commercialization

Recently I accepted an invitation to a meeting in the Niagara Falls area- the host of our meeting had a lodge at Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. Niagara Falls is split into two sections- the American side and the Canadian side. The Canadian side is ...
