A compact, two-day tour from Boston that times an evening at Niagara Falls—often with fireworks—and a morning of park highlights. Includes coach transport and one-night lodging; Maid of the Mist is a seasonal add-on.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach into a spray-scented dusk where the falls throw light against the mist and the roar rearranges conversation into a hush. The tour times you for evening spectacle—fireworks arcing above Horseshoe Falls—and gives you a full morning to move closer: observation decks, cliff-edge boardwalks, and the option to feel the river’s shove aboard Maid of the Mist in season.
