First let me begin with the fact that it was beautiful. Having access to the cave of the winds was amazing and an opportunity that you should definitely not miss. The downfall to this package is the express combo, there is no express to this (maybe getting your tickets for the Maid of the Mist, you went right through). You were waiting in the normal lines and don’t skip anything. I think the longest wait was for the cave of the winds, the tickets were purchased for hours after the Maid of the Mist portion had been over. It did give you time to grab lunch, but most of businesses that serve lunch don’t open until 11 or after. The tour guide was knowledgeable (with facts about the falls and the power plant that once stood) social (did tell some corny jokes), and offered to take photos for people on the tour. It was worth the trip up, but I don’t think the tour was worth it. Maybe if I compared the prices to the “normal prices” it may have been worth it, but if this was a go at our own pace I would have liked to choose the times for the cave of the winds, as that didn’t have a tour guide.

Hi Erica! I’m glad you had a great time! In the description in Tour it states that the Cave of the Winds reservation will be set for 1pm to allow time for lunch and if people would like to change their time we can accommodate that. Typically you are with your guide from 9am-11am to enjoy the maid of the mist and tour. Then we give plenty of time to grab lunch so you don’t have to feel like you are on the Amazing Race, and you can enjoy your lunch and get to the Cave of the Winds without feeling rushed. If anyone wants to set their Cave time for earlier, please feel free to call and we can make that arrangement.
