A fantastic experience with live commentary. The bus is open on all sides, so you shouldn't be too scared. The commentator is very friendly and informative. The ride takes about 10 minutes (5 round trip), and on the other side, seats are swapped so everyone can see everything. The whirlpool under your feet is a unique spectacle. The waterfalls are an incredible natural spectacle. The boat ride on the Hornblower is also highly recommended. Tickets should be purchased in advance, and unfortunately, the bus doesn't operate until 10:00 a.m.

With the 3-day pass, it's one of three attractions with a time slot. Reserved, a short wait, and then the ride on that old thing! Over 100 years old but in top condition, complete confidence, no fear, superbly organized. The view from up there... one way, one side, and back. Another highlight! Thanks, Canada 🇨🇦

With the cable car above the whirlpool you get great photo opportunities in front of the camera. But the cable car doesn't stop at the other end and you can't get off there!
