Cave of the Winds Tour

Attraction | "Cave of the Winds"

Quote:

You start off by getting your ticket, a rain poncho, and some swim shoes. You put them on and put anything you don't want soaked in the bag you get. You head down an elevator about 175 feet, to the bottom of the falls. You'll walk along wooden walkways and be within 20 feet of the falls. There are rainbows all over, and the water rushing is amazing. You can go onto the Hurricane deck and get drenched with the water and feel the force of the Falls, or you can bypass this part.

You get a rain poncho and head off to get aboard a boat that will take you out to the falls for a close up view. It is a great trip, and they tell you information about the Falls as you go by them. The kids always seem to love this the most out of everything to do.
