NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. — Looking ahead to a full season, Niagara City Cruises will launch for the season on Mother’s Day weekend.

Operating on a condensed weekend schedule starting May 6, 2022, the popular Voyage to the Falls tour will run Friday to Monday between 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. Regular daily service will return in June.

Tickets are on sale now at niagaracitycruises.com.

“We are excited to be able to open for Mother’s Day and provide visitors to Niagara Falls the most unique view of the globally renowned waterfall,” says Mory Di Maurizio, Chief Operating Officer of City Cruises in Canada. “Our crew is geared up and ready to help our guests create more amazing memories from in the mist!”

The 20-minute Voyage to the Falls boat tour sets sail every 30 minutes and brings guests on the journey of a lifetime. Enjoy stunning views of the Niagara Gorge, American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls, and come faceto-face with the famous Canadian Horseshoe Falls.

Feel the thundering roar, awesome power and amazing mist (a protective recyclable mist poncho is provided) that come along with these natural wonders.

“The Voyage to the Falls is a truly iconic Niagara Falls attraction, rated as Canada’s top visitor experience,” says Mr. DiMaurizio. “The past two years have been particularly challenging for the tourism industry. It is encouraging to see some steps towards stimulating the tourism experience not just in Niagara, but across Ontario and Canada.”

The Voyage to the Falls tour costs $32 + HST for Adults (13+), $22 + HST for Children (3 to 12), while Infants (2 and under) ride for free. Timed ticketing is in effect.

While vaccination requirements and face mask mandates have been lifted, Niagara City Cruises continues to operate under its SafeCruise principles as the safety of our guests and crew remains our top priority.
