From the base of the Falls, embark on the Voyage to the Falls boat tour and feel the thundering power of the cascading water up close. Be sure to wear the provided ponchos to stay dry!
After your aquatic adventure, explore the lush Niagara Parks and wander along the Niagara Parkway. Stop by the Butterfly Conservatory to marvel at the colorful winged creatures. For lunch, enjoy a family-friendly meal at one of the many restaurants on Clifton Hill, the vibrant entertainment district.
In the afternoon, head back to the Embassy Suites and let the kids burn off energy at the indoor pool and arcade. Finish the day with a delicious dinner at the on-site TGI Fridays.
