“Las catarátas merecen la pena pero el tour es pésimo”
Subir a las cataratas merece la pena, imprescindible hacer el viaje en el barquito. La guĂ­a que tuvimos fue un desastre, una actividad de 1h la alargĂł a 4h, fue un aburrimiento pero el paisaje merecĂ­a la pena. Antes de ir, aseguraros de en que vehĂ­culo os llevarĂĄn, a nosotros nos llevaron en un coche 7 plazas con wifi, asĂ­ que genial para ir mĂĄs rĂĄpido que un autobĂşs o van el problema es que los asientos de detrĂĄs del todo eran incomodĂ­simos, no te cabĂ­an las piernas.

Great trip from New York to Niagara Falls
This trip is an ideal choice for tourists who have little time. Departure from New York at 11 pm, return next day around 10 pm. There was enough time about 5 hours to visit wonderful falls including Maid Of The Mist boat ride and the walk to Goat Island. Our guide was very nice and helpful. Many thanks, Milly!
