Niagara Falls Attractions

Bring the whole family to the greatest fun spot in Ontario. From the exotic to the fantastic - families love all the exciting things to do in Niagara. Make some memories - play together - jump in - too many things to see and do in one day - in one week. Whatever your family loves to do - sightseeing - biking - swimming - or just hanging out - Niagara is the favourite family destination. Ride a roller coaster - feel the mist on your face - get scared - get happy - laugh out loud. There's no place like Niagara for a learning vacation - plenty of places to explore - discover and experience. For family fun, there's no place like Niagara.

Niagara continues to grow "family fun" activities - every year, there is something new and exciting for families to do. That's why families return to Niagara year after year - just because there is so much to do and explore.

If it's thrills and chills you're after, then Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls is where you want to go. Action and excitement are the order of the day. Ripley's Believe it or Not, Nightmares Fear Factory or the 53 metre high Niagara Skywheel, all located on Clifton Hill are only three of the many attractions, all geared for family fun.

If your family is more into natural thrills, then maybe a ride in a helicopter, as it swoops down into the curve of the Falls or plunge into the Devil's Hole Rapids aboard the Whirlpool Jet Boats.

The Welland Canal is one of Niagara's most fascinating sites. Your family can actually watch the ships climb the locks from Lock 3 Observation Platform.

Nature lovers flock to the Niagara Falls Bird Kingdom to see more than 300 species of tropical birds in a controlled area which mimics a tropical rain forest- the kids can even feed the birds. Over 2,000 beautiful butterflies flutter freely about in a glass enclosed natural environment at the Niagara Parks Butterfly conservatory. If it's bigger, wilder animals that intrigue your family, then visit Niagara Safari/ZooZ, located on 44 hectares. Complete with playgrounds, water park and aquarium, Safari Niagara/ZooZ is a great way to spend a day in Niagara.

At the end of a long day of play, take the family for a leisurely stroll through the pathways alongside the Niagara River and the Falls. Let the kids see the Falls in all their splendour, illuminated and majestic in the darkness. Fireworks over the Falls occur all summer long as a special treat for visitors. There really is no place like the Falls for family fun.
