Adventure Tips
Bring a good camera
Low light conditions make a camera with manual settings or a smartphone with night mode essential for capturing the illuminated falls.
Dress in layers
Evening temperatures near the falls can be cooler due to mist and wind, so wear layers to stay comfortable during the tour.
Book tickets in advance
Evening tours are popular and fill up quickly, especially during fall and summer fireworks seasons; reserve your spot early to secure your place.
Watch for slippery surfaces
Mist from the falls and evening dew can make paths slick—wear sturdy, non-slip footwear to maintain safe footing.
