Niagara City Cruises started the cruise to the Falls on the Canadian side of the Niagara River after taking over from the Maid of the Mist Cruise during the 2014 season under the banner Hornblower Niagara Cruises and marked its first million visitors by August 16th in that first year.
The attraction was rebranded as Niagara City Cruises in 2021 as part of an overarching global rebrand initiative and its fleet for Niagara tours is comprised of two ships: Niagara Wonder and Niagara Thunder..
“There are few experiences in Canada like the Voyage to the Falls boat tour,” says Mory DiMaurizio, Chief Operating Officer of City Cruises in Canada.
“To hit 15 million visitors in less than a decade, especially considering the challenges of the last few years, is a significant achievement. I’m proud of our team at Niagara City Cruises for consistently delivering a world-class visitor experience, and thankful for all 15 million guests for choosing us during their visit to Niagara Falls.”
The Voyage to the Falls boat tour is a 20-minute excursion that offers guests an up-close-and-personal look at all three falls.
Starting at the dock in the Niagara Gorge — which is a site unto itself — passengers cruise past the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls before coming face-to-face with the renowned Canadian Horseshoe Falls.
Starting daily on June 16th, visitors can hop aboard the Falls Fireworks Cruise for the best views of the stunning lightshow over the brink of the Falls.
