Maid of the Mist, Boat tour at Niagara Falls, United States
The Maid of the Mist vessels navigate through the powerful waters at the base of Niagara Falls, providing close views of both American and Horseshoe Falls.
Since its establishment in 1846, the Maid of the Mist has transported millions of visitors across the Niagara River, becoming North America's longest-running boat tour.
The boat tour represents an essential connection between visitors and the natural power of Niagara Falls, allowing people to experience the falls from water level.
Tickets for adults cost $28.25, while children between 6 and 12 pay $17.75, and the tour operates from late April through early November each year.
The all-electric vessels carry passengers directly into the dense mist created by the 600,000 gallons of water falling per second from Horseshoe Falls.
