    "To visit Niagara Falls, you must take a cruise to experience the waterfall up close. We bought a package ticket for about 100 yuan, and it seems that it only costs tens of yuan to take the boat alone. Waiting in line is not long, each boat can accommodate a lot of people, raincoats must be worn, but near the waterfall will still be wet, the whole trip for half an hour."

Put on a thin red raincoat, take a double-decker cruise ship that can carry 700 passengers, pass the American Falls, the Bridal Veil Falls, and enter the heart of the Horseshoe Falls. Feel the abundance of water and the deafening roar of the waterfall. This thrill and excitement will make you unforgettable for a lifetime. The whole journey takes about 30 minutes, with departures every 15 minutes during the day. In addition, the cruise provides a new audio guide machine in Chinese for a fee. #nighttourexperience# The waterfalls are magnificent during the day, and even more amazing by boat tours at night, including the Sunset Cocktail Cruise and the Falls Lighting Fireworks Cruise. Under the sunset, waterfall lighting and gorgeous fireworks, the scenery of the waterfall is more colorful than the daytime, coupled with the food, wine and music on the ferry, the 40-minute beautiful experience makes people deeply indulged.
