Maid of the Mist
Admission includedStep aboard and feel the roar of the falls before you even reach the water's edge. Maid of the Mist carries you directly into the churning mist at the base of Horseshoe Falls, where the air turns cool and the sound becomes almost physical. Donning a blue poncho, you stand at the bow as walls of white water rise around you, making Maid of the Mist one of the most visceral natural experiences in the eastern United States.
