Romance In 3 Easy Steps

Step 1: Fall for the Falls

Once in Niagara Falls State Park — America’s oldest! — head to the Observation Tower for a panoramic view over the Niagara Gorge and all three Falls. Then, get a closer look care of a classic boat ride; the Maid of the Mist sails lovebirds right up to the base of American and Horseshoe Falls. Grab a picnic and enjoy the park’s scenic 400 acres, or work up a sweat on one of the many hiking trails that lead you to scenic vistas. Later, take a stroll and witness the nightly Falls illumination — the perfect way to cap off your first night.

Step 2: Hit the Trail

Start your day with a scenic bike ride — rent a bike through a local outfitter and pedal around Goat Island. Situated between the Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls, the island has several vantage points to take in the beauty of the Falls, and plenty of walking and bike trails. (Looking for more of a tour? Trails extend beyond Niagara Falls to Lewiston and more.) After a lazy lunch, head out to experience the beauty (and the deliciousness!) of the Niagara wineries, and end the day in charming Lockport with a meal at local-favorite Shamus Restaurant.

Step 3: Go on an Adventure

What better way to bond than by getting your adrenaline pumping? Niagara Falls USA is overflowing with adventures, like a Rainbow Air helicopter tour over the Falls. If speed’s more your thing, there’s no better thrill than a jet boat tour, which skims over the Class V rapids of the lower Niagara River. Unwind afterwards with a soothing spa treatment, and then hit the floor at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino to continue your day of excitement.
