Excellent
We went at night. The new light show in the big hallway was spectacular. This is one of the things in Niagra Falls you need to do. Be ready to walk a while. The tunnel is long, but very worth it. It's education and amazing.

Very educational, funny, and interactive. Would definitely recommend to folks to learn about hydropower at Niagra Falls

We met Tim at the rendezvous point and from that moment it was full on information. I’d say a stand out guide to all that is Niagra but also Canada to! Our first time in Canada so we had lot of questions about the country and traditions all expertly explained . We shared stories of our experiences to and this banter made for a truly excellent experience. Thanks again Tim ����

I always like to add a little education to my visits. It was very interesting to learn about the power station. And if you don't mind doing a little extra walking, definitely do the tunnel. Kids will love its ominous feel as you trek your way back to the base of the falls...underground. Very cool.

This is definitely a must do attraction in Niagara. It is informative, interesting and above all exhilarating. So cool to be under the water & than see the falls from the bottom. The power of the water! Wow! A +++
