Bridal Veil Falls
The Bridal Veil Falls is the smallest of the three waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls. It is located on the American side (in New York State); Luna Island separates it from the American Falls and Goat Island separates it from the Horseshoe Falls. The Bridal Veil Falls faces to the northwest and has a crest 56 ft (17 m) wide. Luna Island being very small, the Bridal Veil is similar in appearance to the American Falls, starting with a vertical fall of 78 ft (24 m), followed by the water violently descending the talus boulders to the Maid of the Mist pool 103 ft (31 m) below. The total vertical drop is 181 ft (55 m). The crest elevation of the Falls is 508 ft (155 m)

The Three Sisters Islands are islands which lie off the south shoreline of Goat Island. The islands are part of Niagara Falls, New York. Accessible from Goat Island, the Three Sisters Islands are located just beyond the Canada/U.S. border in Niagara Falls, New York.[1] The islands are named after Celinda, Angelina, and Asenath Whitney, (all three are buried in Oakwood Cemetery (Niagara Falls, NY) daughters of General Parkhurst Whitney of Niagara Falls, New York.[2][3] General Whitney (also buried in Oakwood Cemetery (Niagara Falls, NY), was one of the more prominent early settlers of Niagara Falls, New York. The General moved to Niagara Falls, N.Y. in 1810 and is best known as the founder and operator of the Cataract House Hotel located near the upper rapids just above the falls. General Whitney's daughters are believed to be the first settlers to have trekked to the three small islands

Niagara Falls
Horseshoe Falls, also known as Canadian Falls, is the largest of the three waterfalls that collectively form Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–United States border. Approximately 90% of the Niagara River, after diversions for hydropower generation, flows over Horseshoe Falls. The remaining 10% flows over American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. It is located between Terrapin Point on Goat Island in the US state of New York, and Table Rock in the Canadian province of Ontario.[2]

Niagara Falls
The American Falls is the second-largest of the three waterfalls that together are known as Niagara Falls on the Niagara River along the Canada–U.S. border. Unlike the much larger Horseshoe Falls, of which approximately 90% is in Ontario, Canada and 10% in the U.S. state of New York,[2] the American Falls is entirely within the United States.

Goat Island
Goat Island (previously called Iris Island) is a small island in the Niagara River, in the middle of Niagara Falls between the Bridal Veil Falls and the Horseshoe Falls. The island is at the southwest corner of the City of Niagara Falls (and of Niagara County), New York, in the United States and is part of Niagara Falls State Park. Goat Island has no residents, but is a destination for tourists visiting the falls on the U.S. side. It has several viewing points, including from Terrapin Point. Goat Island is connected to the U.S. mainland by two bridges that carry foot, car, and trackless train traffic, and to the smaller Luna Island (adjacent to the American Falls) by a pedestrian bridge. Goat Island is largely wooded and is interlaced with foot trails. The Cave of the Winds tour elevator provides access down to the foot of the falls.

I paid USD450 for a family of four to pick me and drop me off from airport to Niagara Fall. Is only driver with no tour how misleading can this be. The tour operator didn’t even turn up in airport despite I left the messages many times. For the amount I paid, should at least include tour guide and ticket to the fall. Uber one way to the fall is only at max usd 36.

This Sightseeing trip was booked in November most of the attractions are not operating. This is a private tour (which allows client to customize) it is clearly explained what it includes. Client can always add on attractions when they confirm trip. Unfortunately this client didn't confirm trip until day of tripWhich delayed the driver. This tour included 5 hours of time, which they used to also go from the airport and return, and visited all the major locations - American and Canadian Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, Three Sisters, Goat Island, Whirlpool park, The Point. With access to the observation tower, Hydro Visitors center. It is always important to confirm your tours in advance to have the best experience, we ask for 24-48 client confirmation to review their upcoming experiences.

I had a terrible experience. In the end, the tour guide didn’t show up and I’m still waiting for their reply about my refund request. After booking I contacted the tour company several times, but their responses were always very late and irresponsible. I really don’t recommend to book this tour. When the tour company’s response was late, I contacted the viator support center as well and asked if everything was okay. Their reply was fast and it seemed that they could solve the problem. The viator support center said that they would contact the tour company and no need for me to worry, but actually I just wasted my time.
