We’ll depart NYC for upstate New York, first heading to the Corning Glass Center*, a showcase for art, science and history of glassmaking. You will witness firsthand craftsman and artisans working superheated glass into beautiful decorative pieces, and at the conclusion of the tour, you will have the opportunity to purchase an unique glass piece for yourself at the Center’s lovely gift shop. Afterwards, we will head to the Niagara Falls to see its furious cascade of water and hear its otherworldly roar. You won’t believe how many daredevils, ranging from barrel-jumpers to tight rope walkers, have braved its power. You can be a bit of a daredevil yourself when you hop on the Maid of the Mist boat ride* (seasonal) where you can literally "soak" in the excitement and power of the Falls. And after dark, our tour leader will bring us back to the riverbank to witness the nightly illumination of the Falls.

For winter special schedule(Nov - Mar), if time is availiable we will go to the Old Fort Niagara(optional), located at the mouth of the Niagara River. Be sure to catch the short guided tour that explains a lot in a short time. The fact that the old French Castle from 1726 is still standing today is amazing. The history and importance of this fort is a compelling reason to preserve it and the artifacts in the museum were spectacular. If you're a history buff or just like tours of this kind you have to see this.

This morning, we’ll continue our sightseeing in Niagara Falls, heading to the IMAX Theatre* for a thrilling movie experience in which you’ll witness the sights and sounds of the Falls through the perspective of the daredevils who have tried to conquer it.
