What you'll see
Niagara's Devil's Hole Rapids boast 15'-20' (4.5m-6m) waves, currents with speeds approaching 20 mph (32 km) and a solid class 5 rating. Class 5 rapids are defined as "approaching the limits of navigability, should only be attempted by whitewater experts after taking every available precaution." In the early 1990s, one of the Lachine Rapids Tours boats came to Niagara to test out the Devil's Hole Rapids. In this sightseeing tour you will be taking a tour of the USA side of Niagara Falls. You will see Devils' Hole National State Park. We will visit the Freedom Crossing Monument and the Niagara Power Project designed by Robert Moses.
The Jetboat will travel upriver (south) and into the Niagara Gorge. Once in the gorge, 175 ft walls ascend from above the water line. The boat makes its way into the famous whirlpool and then heads back on down (north) through Devil's Hole Rapids.
Once you have completed the Jet Boat and changed your cloths, you will meet your tour guide and complete the 60 minutes sightseeing tour.
