Carriage Rides
It's amazing how horse drawn carriage rides just seem to frame a memorable experience. Slow down time with a leisurely tour by the Falls through Queen Victoria Park. Or the Botanical Gardens by the Butterfly Conservatory. The tour through the historic town of Niagara-on-the-Lake is quite grand. Tours can be enjoyed from May to August.
Enjoy a scenic tour with the family, a few friends or a quiet romantic time for just the two of you. With a knowledgeable guide and four tours to choose from, it's hard to go wrong.
