9 Water & Amusement Parks in Niagara Falls That You Shouldn't Miss
Once a destination for honeymoons and family vacations, Niagara Falls has really stepped it up as an action-packed vacation spot. The falls are literally the biggest draw – watching the frothy water tumble at alarming speeds can be mesmerizing. Throw on a poncho and hop aboard the Maid of the Mist to cruise close enough to the falls to be drenched by spray. Hit the main strip of Clifton Hill for flashy tourist attractions and restaurants galore.

There's so much to do here! We got the Fun Pass, and it was definitely worth it: the Skywheel, mini golf, two ride adventures, the wax museum and the Zombie Invasion, which was by far the best! You will not regret coming here if you're looking for arcade and tourist-y fun!

I enjoyed taking my grandchildren to this. It was great to be somewhere warm on a cold March day. The slides are pretty impressive, and the play area for babies was a lot of fun with my 1 year old grandson. We had lunch there, and the food was burgers and fries kind of thing, but was not excessively priced. I was very impressed the fact that they had a number of staff working with them that had disabilities. The staff were all very kind and welcoming to everyone, and they seemed to all be having a good time working there. I would definitely return to the water park if I am in Niagara with my grandchildren again.

We spent a good 2-3 hours at the arcade as we all loved it! We bought the 160 coin deal on the Clifton Hill website and it definitely was plenty to play with! Lots of games to choose from and a great prize selection for all ages! The ticket eater was fun to do while it counted our tickets FAST!!! Can't wait to go again
