Five attractions, included in every pass. Two more you can add at checkout. Every one is on the American side, and none of them requires crossing back into Canada.

What's In the Niagara Falls Attractions Pass
Maid of the Mist
The boat that takes you to the base of Horseshoe Falls, running from the American side since 1846. Loud, soaking, and the single most requested thing anyone does at Niagara. Ponchos included, and you will need it. The full loop takes about twenty minutes, most of it close enough to the base of the falls that conversation stops entirely — bring the poncho, but expect it to lose the fight anyway.
Cave of the Winds
Wooden walkways descending into the Niagara Gorge, right up against Bridal Veil Falls. The Hurricane Deck puts you close enough to feel the water hit. Rebuilt seasonally, every year, because the falls destroy it every winter.Even in July the spray coming off Bridal Veil Falls is cold enough to notice, and the walkways stay open rain or shine — this is the one attraction on the list where the weather doesn't change the plan.
Aquarium of Niagara
Penguins, sea lions, and a Great Lakes gallery minutes from the state park, now across two buildings since the Great Lakes 360 expansion opened. The obvious indoor move when the weather turns, which at Niagara it reliably does. It's a manageable size — most visits run an hour to ninety minutes — which makes it the easiest attraction to slot in around everything else on a tighter schedule.
Buffalo RiverWorks
Grain silos on the Buffalo River converted into a waterfront adventure and entertainment complex. Ziplines, ropes course, rock climbing on the silos themselves, and one of the better skyline views in the city. One of the few attractions in the lineup that runs through the winter. Beyond the ziplines and climbing, it doubles as one of the better places to watch the sun go down over the river, especially paired with dinner at one of the restaurants on site.
Old Fort Niagara
Three centuries of French, British, and American occupation at the mouth of the Niagara River, with the oldest building in the Great Lakes still standing on site. Living-history demonstrations run through the season. The living-history demonstrations run on a schedule through the season, so it's worth checking timing before a visit if that's the specific draw.

Six Flags Darien Lake
The largest theme park in western New York, roughly forty minutes from both Buffalo and the falls. Coasters, a full waterpark, and enough to fill a whole day on its own — which is exactly why it sits outside the core five rather than inside it.
Buffalo Bisons
They’re the Toronto Blue Jays’ Triple-A affiliate at Sahlen Field in downtown Buffalo, the top affiliate in the region and a long-standing draw for Ontario visitors. A ballgame is tied to a specific date and seat, so it works as an add-on rather than as part of the pass.
