Niagara Falls Through Time: A Historic Walking Tour

History, power and tourism are the three threads of this walking tour, a handy first introduction to Niagara Falls. It follows how the area changed from a geological wonder into an international destination, taking in historic hotels, scenic parks, transportation systems, well-known viewpoints and the remarkable hydroelectric works hidden beneath the landscape. You will hear about links to royalty, Marilyn Monroe, Sir Harry Oakes and pioneering engineers while seeing the Falls from some memorable vantage points, with several stops for photos. Your guide is Bee of Tours by B, a local Public Historian and official Niagara Parks Tour Guide, who walks you through more than 200 years of history. Booking it early in your trip helps you get your bearings: Bee weighs the pros and cons of each attraction along the route, so you can decide which ones to explore later at your own pace and get more out of your holiday budget and travel time.
