Niagara Falls, Canada
Top 9 in Top 12 Best Cheap Family Vacations
Niagara Falls, Ontario, a city in Canada near the eponymous waterfalls, is connected to the United States by the Rainbow Bridge. The Horseshoe Falls, the largest component of the cascades, are visible from its location on the western bank of the Niagara River. Families should stay on the Canadian side of the renowned Niagara Falls since it provides the best views of the majestic falls and a wide range of activities. The view of Horseshoe Falls, the biggest and most well-known of the three, is the best from here. It is absolutely free to enjoy the view as well as to explore many of the paths and pathways. The falls are a particularly magnificent sight at night when they are lit in color.
The observation platform behind the falls is accessible to anyone who wish to get closer, and packages are offered for more daring tourists who want to experience the zipline past Horseshoe Falls and American Falls. The Whirlpool Aero Car, a classic cable car that crosses the Niagara River over the Whirlpool Rapids, is a slightly less ominous choice. The bases of all three falls can be seen up close on a cruise for those who don't mind getting wet (despite the ponchos). Marine Land, a summer amusement park in Niagara Falls that also houses dolphins and whales, is another fantastic family destination.
In addition, it takes only a short drive from Toronto to get to Niagara Falls, allowing families to travel to this thrilling destination without having to pay for lodging.
