The Perfect Three-Day Voyageurs National Park Itinerary

Last Updated on February 22, 2024 by Grant

In the late 1700s and early 1800s, French-Canadian canoemen, called voyageurs, played a vital role in the fur trade. These voyageurs paddled up to 16 hours a day and portaged hundreds of pounds of goods (along with the canoe) transporting beaver pelts and other items roughly 3,000 miles to Montreal. Our Voyageurs National Park itinerary allows you to learn more about this historic waterway system that, today, is a beautiful and serene outdoor playground.

While the history of this land plays an important role in its preservation, the scenery and solitude it provides are what draws people in. Located in northern Minnesota, right on the Canadian border, this is one of the most remote parks in the contiguous United States. And the unspoiled beauty of the land is something you don’t find often. 

Fun fact: much of the US-Canada border follows the path of the voyageurs.

With our three-day itinerary, you’ll have time to visit each of the park’s mainland areas, learn more about the historic voyageurs that the park is named for and get out on the water.

Getting to Voyageurs National Park

Getting to Voyageurs National Park really is not all that difficult, as long as you’re ready for a road trip. Actually exploring the park does take some advanced planning, though. That’s because roughly 40% of the park is water. And getting to much of the land area requires a boat. Don’t worry, though, there are plenty of options if you don’t have your own boat.

The gateway city for Voyageurs National Park is International Falls, MN. With a population of about 5,800, it actually is not quite as big of a city as I expected it to be. Still, it is a decent-sized town with a grocery store, a few restaurants and basic supplies. There are also a lot of lodges and resorts right around the park.

You can drive directly to International Falls. While there is an airport there, it is very small. It’s probably best to drive in from Duluth (about 3 hours) or Minneapolis-St. Paul (about 5 hours), if you are too far to drive from home. 

We drove up to International Falls from Yankton, SD, where we were visiting the Missouri National Recreational River , overnighting at Maplewood State Park along the way. I have to say, the entire drive through Minnesota was gorgeous and very relaxing. 

Read our in-depth campground reviews here.

The park itself consists of three mainland areas that can be reached by car. Additionally, there are more than 30 lakes, the two largest being Rainy Lake and Kabetogama Lake. All of these waterways seem to merge together in and around the Kabetogama Peninsula and countless islands and marshes of various sizes. 

These other land areas can only be reached by boat.

Things to Do in Voyageurs National Park

This really is a water-based park. Thus, the most popular things to do in Voyageurs National Park include boating and fishing. To truly experience the park, you really do need to get out on the water. You can do that on your own boat or with a ranger-led or private guided boat tour. Honestly, I would say that doing a guided boat tour is an absolute must-do for all visitors to Voyageurs National Park. 

Additionally, there are a few hiking trails, both on the mainland, the Kabetogama Peninsula and on some of the islands. There are also a few islands with historic buildings and old mines. One island even has a rock sculpture garden that you can explore. 

Camping is another popular activity and the park maintains roughly 270 boat-in campsites. While you, technically, can paddle to some of these sites, many are a long way from the nearest boat launch. Thus, having a motorboat provides you with greater access to camping and exploring the many remote areas of the park. Note: there are shuttle services available for those who want to camp but don’t have a boat.

Finally, one of the most popular things to do at Voyageurs National Park is explore by houseboat. In fact, some campsites are specifically designed for houseboats. I have to say, I think this would be a truly unique and epic way to enjoy the park! Alas, it wasn’t in the cards for us this time but maybe we’ll return and rent a houseboat one day. 

Where to Go in Voyageurs National Park 

The three mainland areas at Voyageurs National Park each have a visitor center:  Rainy Lake, Kabetogama Lake and Ash River. Of these, Rainy Lake is the closest to International Falls, just a 15-20 minute drive east of town. Here, you’ll find the park’s only year-round visitor center, which is also its largest. 

Kabetogama Lake is a bit farther southeast (about 30-40 minutes from town). Ash River is just about 15-20 minutes east of that. Both have a small, seasonal visitor center. Kabetogama Lake is mostly used as a boat launch and dock. There are also a number of private resorts and lodges nearby. Ash River is a larger area. It, also, has a boat launch along with a couple of hiking trails. 

Finally, there is a ranger station at Crane Lake, which is roughly 1.5 hours southeast of International Falls. We did not visit that area as it is not technically part of the national park. 

One of the most popular destinations in the park is Kettle Falls. At Kettle Falls, you’ll find the Kettle Falls Dam and a hotel with a dining room and a very quirky bar. Seriously, you have to check out the bar, even if you don’t want a drink!

Some of the other popular destinations include the Ellsworth Rock Gardens, Harry Oveson Fish Camp, the gold mine on Little American Island, and I.W. Stevens Island, where Stevens operated a small resort and lived year-round for nearly 50 years.

Our Three-Day Voyageurs National Park Itinerary

Since we were visiting Voyageurs National Park with our RV, we camped on the mainland and relied on boat tours to see the majority of the park. Over our three days inside the park, we spent one day exploring the Ash River area, one day at Rainy Lake and one day on a boat tour to Kettle Falls from Kabetogama Lake.

For us, having three days at Voyageurs National Park was just about perfect. Could we have spent more time out on the water exploring? Absolutely. But, in this amount of time, we were able to stop at all three visitor centers and take one tour of Rainy Lake and one of Kabetogama Lake, including a visit to Kettle Falls. For us, that seemed like a fairly comprehensive visit.

We actually had a fourth day in International Falls but we spent it doing laundry and catching up on work (these posts don’t write themselves). Over the years, we’ve found that having an extra day allows us to slow down and enjoy the journey a bit more. It also provides an opportunity to reschedule any tours that might get canceled due to rain or other circumstances.

Of course, there are many different ways to spend three days at Voyageurs National Park. If you have your own boat, want to do some tent camping or enjoy the luxury of a houseboat, those are all great options.

Finally, you can easily move around the activities and days on our Voyageurs National Park itinerary. Some tours are only offered on certain days, so adjust as necessary, depending on tour availability. 

Day 1: Explore the Rainy Lake Area and Take a Ranger-Led Boat Tour 

The Rainy Lake Visitor Center is the largest of the park’s three visitor centers and the only one open year-round. It is also the starting point for several of the NPS boat tours. 

At the visitor center, you’ll find a small exhibit area. This includes information on the Ojibwe (the Native Americans who the voyageurs traded with), the historic winter ice roads and some of the wildlife in the area. As usual, there is also a small bookstore. Of course, this is also a great place to ask a ranger any questions you might have about exploring the park.

Just outside the visitor center is a large dock for boat tours. There is also a boat launch for anyone who wants to take their own boat out on the water.

Voyageurs National Park Grand Tour

We chose to do the Grand Tour, which provides a tour of Rainy Lake and information on the cultural history of the area. You’ll also look for and learn about wildlife along the way. 

This 2.5-hour tour makes a quick 20-minute stop at Little American Island. There, you can explore on your own or listen to the ranger talk about the short-lived gold mining operations of the 1890s. On the island, you’ll find a 1/4-mile accessible walkway that takes you past a couple of old mine shafts and out to an overlook.

Back on the boat, we continued our tour east on the lookout for bald eagles, loons and other wildlife. We passed by another old mine and the Harry Oveson historic commercial fishing camp, which operated into the 1980s. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to stop here, but there is a dock for those with their own boat.

Overall, the boat tour was a relaxing way to see Rainy Lake and learn more about the park’s history. While the ranger on this tour did mention the voyageurs, the narration focused more on the mining, fishing and geology of the park. 

Reservations for this tour (and other park tours) must be made in advance at recreation.gov . All reservations for the summer season are available starting at 9:00 am on April 15, annually. Of course, this is subject to change, so be sure to check the park’s website for current information. 

Note: this tour is a combination of the park’s Discovery Tour and Gold Mine Tour. Either of those would be good options if this one is unavailable.

Day 2: Visit the Ash River Area and Enjoy a Hike

Even though the Ash River Visitor Center is fairly small, there really is quite a bit to do in that area. In the summer, you’ll find a ranger-led interpretive canoe tour. There also are two different boat launches – one for canoes and kayaks and another for motorized boats. Finally, there are a few hiking trails and overlooks.

As you drive in from the highway, you’ll pass several turnouts for overlooks. The Beaver Pond overlook is the one that we recommend stopping at. While we didn’t see any beavers, we did see a beaver lodge and a few birds. Visiting early or late in the day will likely provide the best opportunities for wildlife viewing.

Inside the visitor center, you’ll find a small store with shirts, stickers, magnets, books and other park souvenirs. You can also watch the short, 12-minute park film (just ask a ranger). 

One of the best views in this area can be easily reached with just a short walk behind the visitor center out to a point. This is also where you will find the all-important Voyageurs National Park sign! As this is primarily a water-based park, the only park sign is here, right on the water. Thankfully, it’s easy to get a picture of the park sign from land (or from a boat).

Ash River North Canoe Voyage 

One of the best ways to learn about the history of the park and the voyageurs it is named after is through the park’s Ash River North Canoe Voyage. Reservations are available on recreation.gov . Note: be sure to search Voyageurs National Park Special Interpretive Programs to find this tour.

The program begins with rangers dressed in period costumes, telling a bit about the French-Canadian voyageurs and the hundreds of pounds of goods they transported across the continent. While this program is a little hokey, it is also an interactive and interesting way to learn about these people and the effort it took to transport these goods.

From there, you’ll get a safety briefing and some basic information about paddling before piling into the large 12-person canoe. The canoe is a modernized version of what the voyageurs used as they paddled these waters more than 200 years ago.

The actual paddling part of the program only lasts about 30 minutes. That said, it was a lot of paddling and the kids on our tour tired quickly. This is because the rangers are doing their best to show you just how hard the voyageurs actually worked. It is not a leisurely sightseeing paddle. 

While we enjoyed this program, it wasn’t exactly what we expected. We were hoping for a little more paddling and exploring. In reality, it’s more about learning the history and how difficult the journey was for the voyageurs. 

Overall, though, it is an interesting program that truly brings to life the history of the park. 

Note: This program is also available at the Rainy Lake Visitor Center. 

Hike the Blind Ash Bay Trail

Even at a water-based park, we always like to find a hiking trail, if there is one. There’s just something about stretching your legs and getting off the beaten path that we really enjoy. At Voyageurs National Park, the Ash River area is a great place to do just that. 

Check out our 10 essentials for hiking here .

The Blind Ash Trail turned out to be a great hike for us. This 3-mile lollipop trail starts near the Ash River Visitor Center and takes you through the forest to Blind Ash Bay. At the beginning of the hike, you’ll have a few glimpses of water through the trees. From there, you’ll travel inland until you reach the bay. 

When you get to the loop part of the hike, we suggest that you veer to the left. This will avoid a steep uphill and saves the best views for last. As you first approach Blind Ash Bay, you’ll be fairly close to the water. There are a couple of places where you can walk down and take pictures or just enjoy the solitude. 

As you continue around, counterclockwise, you’ll reach a high point. This view is what makes the hike worth the moderate effort. Take time to enjoy the view, snap a few pictures and take it all in. 

Overall, the trail is moderately difficult. There is quite a bit of up and down, but nothing too strenuous. Still, the rolling hills are fairly constant adding up to a total of about 500 feet of uphill. Thankfully, though, the trail is shaded pretty much the entire time, so at least you don’t have the sun beating down on you. 

It’s also worth noting that the trail is quite covered with roots and rocks, so you’ll definitely need to watch where you step. 

If you don’t want to do a hike quite this long, you could stop a the Forest Overlook that is along the main entrance road. Here, you’ll find a 0.5-mile trail through the boreal forest. We actually skipped this trail since we had already done a longer hike. But, it looked like a good alternative for a shorter trek. 

Day 3: Kabetogama Lake and Kettle Falls Boat Tour

The Kabetogama Lake Visitor Center is another small, seasonal visitor center. Again, you’ll find a few exhibits on the wildlife and history of the park. Here, we watched a park film that focused on the historic voyageurs. This film is dated but did a great job of depicting the harshness of their daily life. Note: I would guess that both park films are available at all three visitor centers, but I can’t say for sure.

There’s really not much else in this area, other than the boat launch. And, that’s where we met for our tour to Kettle Falls.

We originally had a tour to Kettle Falls scheduled with the National Park Service. Unfortunately, they had to cancel our tour due to limited staffing. Thankfully, we were able to find a private tour to take instead. Honestly, though, I think it worked out for the best. 

On the private tour, we got a few extra stops that were not included on the park tour. Additionally, it was nice to be on a small boat and really get to interact with the captain and get to know the other guests a little. Finally, our private tour was a little more flexible with the timing, allowing us to join in on an unexpected ranger tour at the rock garden. Yes, this means you should not make set dinner plans!

Kettle Falls Boat Tour

The historic Kettle Falls Hotel, located right on the US-Canada border, is the only lodging within Voyageurs National Park and is only accessible by boat. It is also one of the most popular destinations within the park for day trip visitors.

We met Captain Paul at the Kabetogama Visitor Center. Our tour consisted of just 8 adults and 1 child. It was super relaxed and friendly, with Paul slowing down or stopping periodically to tell us personal stories and park history all throughout the journey. 

Our first stop was the Ellsworth Rock Gardens. Jack Ellsworth and his wife spent their summers here, where he worked on this garden from 1944 to 1966. The rock garden sits atop a large granite outcrop and all sculptures are made from rocks he found around the island. 

Be sure to pick up a brochure with information as you walk ashore. As mentioned previously, we lucked out and happened to be there right as a ranger-guided tour was beginning. I could not find that this was advertised anywhere, so you might want to ask ahead of time if anything is scheduled.

The second stop was I.W. Stephens Island. This remote island was Stephens’ year-round home for nearly 50 years. He also welcomed guests at the Pine Cove Resort from 1937 to 1959. While here, you can tour a couple of historic buildings and learn more about life on this remote island.

Kettle Falls Hotel

Finally, we made it to Kettle Falls! Construction of the Kettle Falls Dam and the nearby hotel started around 1910. The small dam (along with its Canadian counterpart on the other side of an island) was built by the logging industry to raise the level of the lake, making it easier to get logs out of the area.

The hotel was, reportedly, financed by Madame Nellie Bly. As such, the rooms were sparsely decorated as they really were used for just one thing and let’s just say there, typically, wasn’t a lot of sleeping involved…

Just a few years later, Robert Williams bought the hotel for $1,000 and four barrels of whiskey. It’s been in business as a hotel ever since. Today, the rooms are used by legitimate overnight guests but it is my understanding that the rooms are still very basic. This truly is a place you go to get away, not for luxury!

Also at the Kettle Falls Hotel, you’ll find a dining room, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner for both overnight and day-use guests. We’ve heard that the Wild Rice Soup is fantastic but we opted to just hit the Lumberjack Saloon for a drink and a snack.

Whether you are interested in getting a drink or not, you should definitely pop into the bar. I don’t want to spoil all the fun, but let’s just say that the bar has “settled” with the hotel over time. And, the artwork pays homage to the hotel’s sordid beginnings.

Still, the saloon has a decent beer selection, with both local and well-known options. Additionally, it has a full bar. Its signature drink is the frozen “pink drink,” which is simply frozen vodka and pink lemonade. I’ll just say, it may not be fancy, but it is good! And dangerous. Seriously, I had to stop myself from just gulping it down like it was a Slurpee from the 7-11. 

In terms of snacks, they offer either a cream cheese or a jalapeño stuffed pretzel. We opted for the jalapeño, which was not at all spicy but definitely tasty. If desired, you can grab a drink at the bar, then head over to the dining room for a full meal. 

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Kettle Falls. The boat tour itself was absolutely perfect, even if we did get a little wet at times. The Kettle Falls Hotel really is a blast from the past. No frills, just basic accommodations in the middle of nowhere. I could definitely enjoy coming here for a few days to escape!

Note: the NPS offers tours to Kettle Falls from both Ash River and Rainy Lake. Additionally, there are a number of private companies and lodges that offer group tours or private charters. We found our tour with Captain Paul through a Voyageurs National Park Forum Facebook group. You can also find a list of the approved concessionaires on the park’s website or check with someone at your hotel or campground. We were able to make the reservation for our Kettle Falls tour just a few days in advance. Of course, the sooner you book, the more options you are likely to have.

Voyageurs National Park in the Winter

Just like many northern national parks, Voyageurs National Park is very different in the winter. The lakes freeze over, turning this summer boaters’ paradise into a winter wonderland. 

In the winter, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing are popular activities. There are also a couple of ice roads. I have to say, that is an idea that is both intriguing and terrifying for me!

Visiting Voyageurs National Park is absolutely possible in the winter. That said, it will be a much different experience. Personally, I would love to visit in the winter but I think you probably get a better idea of the park, initially, in the summer.

If you are interested in a winter visit to Voyageurs National Park, check out the park’s website to know what to expect before you start planning.

Where to Stay at Voyageurs National Park

International Falls makes for a great base for visiting Voyageurs National Park. You could also check in the tiny little town of Ranier, which is just east of International Falls. 

Oddly, there aren’t many big chain hotels in the area, but there are a few local options. You will also find a variety of private lodges, resorts and campgrounds in International Falls and Ranier. 

We chose to camp at the Rainy Lake RV Park, which is about halfway between International Falls and the Rainy Lake Visitor Center. This is a relatively small campground that sits right on the water. In fact, it even has several boat docks. That makes it popular with locals – it is obvious that many guests are long-term/seasonal residents. 

Overall, we enjoyed this campground. The sites are well-spaced apart for a private campground and offer a picnic table and fire pit. The biggest downside is the lack of a bathroom, not great cell service (AT&T) and spotty WiFi. 

Read our full campground review on RV Life here.

In our book, Moon USA RV Adventures , we also recommend The Pines of Kabetogama Resort (a private campground with full hookups) and Woodenfrog Campground (a state park with primitive sites). We haven’t actually stayed at either one, but both looked interesting from our research. 

Of course, if you really want to get away for a few days, you could also stay at the Kettle Falls Hotel. The hotel will help you arrange transportation if you do not have your own boat. Staying at Kettle Falls or renting a houseboat are both something we would like to do on future visits!

Where to Eat and Drink in International Falls

I’m going to be honest, we really weren’t overly impressed with the dining options in International Falls. In fact, we didn’t recommend any restaurants in our book, other than the Lumberjack Saloon at Kettle Falls. 

Still, we did eat out a couple of times and discovered one gem that you should definitely check out.

Sammy’s Pizza and Tavern

We ended up at Sammy’s Pizza Tavern after our Kettle Falls tour. After a long day on the water, we just didn’t have it in us to cook anything! The menu includes a variety of pizzas, strombolis, pasta and sandwiches. You can sit in the dining room or in the tavern. 

To start, we decided to finally try some traditional poutine fries, a Canadian staple. I have to admit, there’s something about fries topped with cheese and gravy that doesn’t really sound all that appetizing. But, it actually did work and we both enjoyed it. 

In terms of meals, Grant opted for a stromboli and I kept it simple with a cup of Chicken & Wild Rice soup and a dinner salad. The soup and salad were ok but nothing to get excited about. Grant did enjoy the stromboli, though. 

This is a solid option if you are staying in a hotel or just need a night off from grilling at your campsite. But, I wouldn’t say eating here is a must.

Cantilever Distillery 

Located in the tiny town of Ranier, the Cantilever Distillery is a hidden gem that you should definitely check out. The distillery and restaurant are located on the bottom floor of the Cantilever Hotel .

We each started with a flight – the aged spirits for Grant and clear spirits for me. Each flight consists of three tastings, two from their Woody’s label and one Cantilever. Grant’s flight included a rye whiskey, an Am-Can blend and bourbon. His favorite of these was Woody’s Rye. Later, he sampled the Cantilever Rye, which is, ultimately, what we bought a bottle of.

My flight included two different gins and vodka. I don’t typically sip straight vodka or gin, so it’s a little difficult to compare to other labels. Still, I really enjoyed both from the Woody’s label. We ended up getting a bottle of vodka for friends. I restrained from buying a bottle of gin that day. But, when we spotted it in a liquor store near Minneapolis, I decided to grab a bottle.

In terms of food, we had the smoked salmon dip to start. Then, Grant had the Torta al Pastor and I opted for the Pan Seared Lake Trout, which was served with Greek-style potatoes. We later found out that the executive chef is Greek and the sous chef is Hispanic. That definitely explains the fantastic flavors that we both found in our meals.

Finally, the cocktail menu here is absolutely phenomenal! The bartender stayed busy all night and was cranking out drinks left and right. The menu includes some unique offerings, such as a Smoked Lavender Old Fashioned.

We highly recommend stopping by to at least check out the spirits and enjoy a cocktail. And you certainly can’t go wrong with the food, either! Reservations are recommended and can be made on their website.

Nearby National Parks

As a remote park, the term “nearby” might be a bit misleading. Still, Grand Portage National Monument and Isle Royale National Park aren’t too far away and pair nicely with a visit to Voyageurs National Park.

In fact, we originally included a stop at Voyageurs National Park on our Great Lakes trip in 2019 . Unfortunately, we had some significant damage to our trailer and had to cut our trip short after leaving Grand Portage, MN. 

Check out our Great Lakes National Parks itinerary.

Grand Portage National Monument

Located on the western shore of Lake Superior, Grand Portage National Monument was a fur trade outpost and hub of trading between the native Ojibwe and Europeans. It is also a great place to learn more about the grueling portage the French-Canadian voyageurs made here.

Before visiting Voyageurs National Park, I really didn’t make the connection between the two sites. Now, it makes complete sense and I am very glad that we made the stop at Grand Portage National Monument several years ago. 

The drive between International Falls and Grand Portage is roughly 4.5 hours. Visiting both sites gives you the opportunity to learn about both the canoe voyage and the portage to understand the full scope of the voyageurs.

Isle Royale National Park

Isle Royale National Park is even more remote than Voyageurs National Park. This island park on Lake Superior can only be reached by boat or seaplane. A boat ride will take a minimum of 2-3 hours. Yes, this is where you truly go to get away! We also visited this park in 2019.

Before we even got off the boat, we understood why it is the most revisited national park, even though it is the least visited, in the “lower 48.” 

The scenery of Voyageurs and Isle Royale are similar but they certainly are not the same park. Voyageurs is fairly easy to get to; it’s getting around that is more difficult. Isle Royale is harder to get to but, once there, you have a variety of hiking trails and paddling options to easily explore the island.

You can reach Isle Royale from Grand Portage but it’s a really long boat ride to the lodge. If staying at the lodge, it is probably better to leave out of Copper Harbor or Houghton, MI.

Yes, getting to Isle Royale National Park is difficult and somewhat expensive. For the scenery and solitude, though, it’s worth it!

For more information on both of these parks, read our full article on visiting Isle Royale National Park .

Final Thoughts on Visiting Voyageurs National Park

Grant and I both really enjoyed Voyageurs National Park. It is breathtakingly beautiful. And, not crowded (at least not when we visited). 

We really enjoyed getting out on the water and just taking in the solitude and scenery. But, without your own boat, you will be somewhat limited in how much you can see. 

Still, there are many options for tours or private charters so you should be able to see and do as much or as little as you have time (and money) for. 

Our three-day Voyageurs National Park itinerary allowed us to do tours on both of the biggest lakes and explore several of the historic points of interest. We even got to lace up our hiking shoes and hit the trail.

While we do feel like we had a complete visit to the park, we could also see ourselves returning one day to do even more. Staying overnight at Kettle Falls Hotel, spending a few days on a houseboat or even snowmobiling in the winter would all be fabulous. 

After visiting 48 “National Parks” and 300 total park sites, it’s great to still find new and interesting places that we’d love to return to!

We have found some amazing prices for booking a cruise through Cruise Direct . We have saved a lot of money on our cruises compared to what we found elsewhere, making a last-minute Bahamas cruise even cheaper. Click here to book a cruise.

What if I want to rent an RV?

We highly recommend Outdoorsy for RV rentals. We rented a camper van for a week to visit Rocky Mountain National Park for the elk rut and Custer State Park for the Buffalo Round-Up and had a blast. The program was easy to use and we really enjoyed the freedom of having a camper van for that trip. Click here to rent an RV.

What do you use for booking tours?

We don’t often book tours. Typically, we like to do stuff on our own. That said, there are some experiences you can’t have any other way. So, when we do want to book a tour, we always check Viator first. Click here to book a tour.

Do you use anything to get discounts on the road?

We make extensive use of both Good Sam and AAA on the road. Good Sam is normally regarded as a discount card for RVers at campgrounds and Camping World but anyone can use the 5 cents off a gallon at the pump at both Pilot and Flying J. Click here to get a Good Sam membership. We have had AAA as long as we have been married and it has more than paid for itself in discounts at hotels, aside from the peace of mind of having roadside assistance. Add in paper maps and the ability to get an international driver’s license and it is more than worth it for any traveler out there. Click here to get a AAA membership.

Voyageurs National Park Tours

Voyageurs National Park

Voyageurs National Park, in northern Minnesota, is a water-based park where you must park your car and take to the water to fully experience the lakes, islands, and shorelines of the park. Today, motorboats, houseboats, canoes, and kayaks are all used here. The park is a mosaic of land and water; an environment of great beauty. It has exceptional natural and cultural resources, and abundant recreational opportunities. The park's complex system of waterways includes an important segment of the transcontinental highway traversed by French-Canadian voyageurs during the late 1700s and early 1800s. Voyageurs is a place where the southern tip of the boreal forest meets and mixes with the northern edge of the hardwood forest. The area is comprised of fire-dependent forests, hardwood forests, peat lands, fens, marshes, rocky outcrops, and lakeshore environments. Throughout the forests, visitors can see Eastern timber wolves, bald eagles, moose, and black bears. Many scenic and naturalist-led tours are offered at Voyageurs. Visitors can enjoy learning about the cultural and natural history of the area on tours ranging from a short 1.5 hours to a full-day 6.5-hour cruise.

Niagara Falls Canada – Respect Our Planet

Learn more about how Niagara City Cruises is committed to respecting our crew, guests, and the natural environment. Click here to learn more.

Niagara Falls is a natural phenomenon that attracts millions of tourists every year. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, there are plenty of things to do in Niagara Falls that will make your trip unforgettable.

Niagara Falls History

The history of Niagara Falls is as vast and beautiful as the falls themselves. About 12,000 years ago, erosion from melting Ice Age glaciers created the Niagara River’s majestic waterfalls, which run along the border between Canada and the United States. These natural marvels are one of North America’s most popular tourist destinations in Niagara Falls State Park.

Due to its location on the southern end of Lake Erie and at the beginning of Lake Ontario, this region has always been an important transportation corridor for travelers heading westward across North America.

Fun Activities in Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls has something fun for everyone in your group, regardless of age. Here are a few of the most popular activities people do when visiting Niagara Falls.

Take a Boat Cruise

Niagara Falls is best experienced by taking a boat cruise. However, get closer than most tourists by taking an evening cruise where you can see how different lights play off each other at night. Niagara City Cruises is the official supplier to Niagara Parks, providing Canada’s only Niagara Falls boat tour experience.

Niagara City Cruises – Voyage to the Falls

The 20-minute Voyage to the Falls boat tour will take you on the journey of a lifetime! Enjoy breathtaking views of the Niagara Gorge, American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls, and come face-to-face with the famous Canadian Horseshoe Falls. Feel the thunderous roar and incredible power of one of the world’s most stunning natural wonders.

Niagara City Cruises – Falls Fireworks

Marvel at the nightly Niagara Falls Illumination light show from the water on the Falls Fireworks cruise . Every evening beginning at dusk, Niagara Falls is transformed into an incredible, multi-coloured water and light masterpiece. Then at 10:00 pm each night from Victoria Day weekend to Canadian Thanksgiving (weather permitting), enjoy an unforgettable evening in Niagara Falls with a jaw-dropping fireworks displays against the backdrop of the American and Canadian Horseshoe Falls.

Niagara City Cruises is located at 5920 Niagara Pkwy, Niagara Falls, ON L2E 6X8, Canada.

Outdoor Recreation

Niagara Falls parks, trails and gardens are easily accessible to biking, hiking, walking – or even just a nice afternoon picnic. The Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens offers 40 hectares (99 acres) of beautifully maintained gardens to explore and is home to the Butterfly Conservatory , providing a truly enriching experience for all seasons. The heart of the Niagara Parks, Queen Victoria Park celebrates every season in style with a visual spectacle, from daffodils and tulips in spring to tree branches covered with the freezing mist of the Falls in winter. Niagara gardens such as the Parks Floral Showhouse , Centennial Lilac Garden , Floral Clock , Dufferin Islands , Oakes Garden Theatre and Queenston Heights Park provide inspiration and delight. Whether by foot or bike, discover 56 kilometers (35 miles) of historical and horticultural sights along the Niagara River Recreational Trail , described by Sir Winston Churchill as “the prettiest Sunday afternoon drive in the world.” The Recreational Trail connects Fort Erie to Niagara-on-the-Lake , meandering through parkland with views of the Niagara River and winding past places of historical and cultural interest, Niagara Falls, wineries, lookout points and beautiful homes.

Book a Tour

Local companies offer sightseeing tours of Niagara and the Falls, while visitors may also indulge a particular interest with a themed Niagara tour. Niagara wine tours traverse the region in search of the perfect Chardonnay, double decker tours lend a different perspective to the city, or Niagara adventure tours take visitors on a whirlwind of the area’s most exciting attractions.

Taking a tour in Niagara Falls will allow you to interact with knowledgeable tour guides that can give you all the valuable tid- bits of everything Niagara. Often times they take the burden a way of finding your way, parking and in some cases front of the line options at Niagara Falls attractions. Taking a combination tour between Niagara-on-the-Lake and Niagara Falls is a great way to spend the week in Niagara.

Go Shopping

Head to the Canada One Factory Outlet on Lundy’s Lane with over 20 brand name stores or visit the Outlet Collection in Niagara-on-the-Lake , a unique open air collection of over 100+ brand name stores.

Within the heart of the tourist district there are also many shopping options. On Clifton Hill there are a number of shops where you can pick up souvenirs from your visit to Niagara Falls.

If you are looking for shopping decadence then we would recommend the Fallsview Casino Resort Shopping Galleria , great shops integrated with great restaurants and a Casino right there for a one stop shopping experience.

See the Falls from Skylon Tower

The Skylon Tower is a 456-foot tower with a 360-degree observation deck, giving fantastic views of the falls. You can also see Lake Ontario, Navy Island, and Toronto.

Walk Across the Rainbow Bridge

The Rainbow Bridge is a pedestrian suspension bridge that spans the Niagara River between Rainbow Boulevard in Niagara Falls, New York, and Prospect Avenue in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

The bridge was built in 1938 by the Canadian Pacific Railway company to carry passengers between both sides of the river. Still, it is now open to pedestrians 24 hours a day and year-round. Canada and the United States have designated the structure as a National Historic Civil Engineering Site. In addition, it won an award for its beauty at its dedication ceremony.

Take a Helicopter Tour

Helicopter tours are a great way to see the falls from a different perspective. While you won’t be able to fly directly over the falls, you can see them from above. You’ll also get breathtaking views of Lake Ontario and its surrounding towns. Book your tour in advance because they sell out quickly on busy days.

Wineries, Breweries and Distilleries in Niagara Falls

Niagara Ontario Canada has become famous for its wines. Whether you are looking for wineries in the Niagara Region, or a specific winery in Niagara-on-the-Lake , Niagara is gaining international recognition as ‘must visit’ destination to enjoy a beautiful country escape with a bit of food and drink. Twenty-five vineyards dot the landscape just 15 to 20 minutes outside Niagara Falls, Canada in quiet and charming Niagara on-the-Lake. The entire Niagara wine region along the shores of Lake Ontario is home to over 50 wineries. Discover the best of the region’s vineyards by following the Wine Route of Ontario through the countryside by car, bike or guided tour . Many Niagara wineries have restaurants, where they pair their fine wines with regional cuisine, and an overnight outing can easily be arranged at nearby a bed-and-breakfast or inn for a Niagara Falls romantic getaway . And if you fall in love with our wine, consider planning a Niagara vacation around one of our popular annual Niagara festivals . The Niagara Wine Festival, which occurs annually in autumn, includes tours and tastings at Niagara vineyards, concerts, Niagara cuisine, artisan shows, and family entertainment. The Niagara Icewine Festival in January celebrates Ontario’s most famous wine in a winter wonderland setting, and the Niagara New Vintage Festival in summer gives visitors a chance to be the first to try the year’s wines.

Visit Old Fort Erie

Old Fort Erie is a National Historic Site of Canada. It was built in 1812, making it one of the first buildings in Fort Erie. This fort was a key site during the War of 1812 and played an important part in Canadian history.

This remarkable site features three main attractions:

The restored Officers’ Quarters: houses exhibits that discuss life within a military garrison.

The Blockhouse: a fortified structure with artifacts from several wars, including American Independence, War of 1812, and World War II.

The Museum exhibits military life, including uniforms and weapons used by soldiers.

Ride the Niagara SkyWheel

If you like to get out of your comfort zone, then the Niagara SkyWheel is for you. The tallest observation wheel in Canada, the SkyWheel, is located on Clifton Hill in Niagara Falls. It has 42 air-conditioned gondolas that can fit up to 8 people each and offers spectacular views of both sides of the falls (especially at night). The best part? It’s open year-round.

Dine Looking at the Falls

Table Rock House Restaurant is located in the Table Rock complex, known for its views of Niagara Falls. The restaurant has a seasonal outdoor patio and indoor seating with great views of the falls. So whether you sit in the dining room or at the bar, you can enjoy your meal while looking out at one of nature’s most legendary displays: Niagara Falls.

Experience the Theatre in Niagara Falls

When looking for theatre or shows in Niagara Falls, there’s an eclectic choice of Niagara entertainment for the entire family at one of our many theatres. Enjoy a Las Vegas style magic show at the Greg Frewin Theatre , or see dramatic productions chronicling the history of Niagara Falls at the Niagara Falls Adventure Theatre . From family-friendly entertainment to a couples-night-out, select from one of these shows for a well-rounded Niagara Falls getaway.

If you’re a theatre buff then you’ve heard of the famous Shaw Festival Theatre in Niagara-on-the-Lake . Only minutes away from Niagara Falls, the Shaw Theatre host an amazing selection of must-see live theatre productions.

What is the Best Time of Year to See Niagara Falls?

The peak tourist season is summer. However, spring and fall provide for a quiet getaway if you prefer not to deal with crowds and long lines.

However, not to be overlooked, Niagara Falls has a breathtaking calm during winter when ice and snow turn the Falls into a majestic winter castle.

The weather at Niagara Falls can dramatically affect whether your trip will go smoothly or turn into a disaster zone. Between June and September (and even into early October), the average temperature is in the 80s. Spring and fall temperatures range from 40F to 70F, while the cold Canadian wind keeps winter below zero.

Make sure to wear layers no matter when you visit Niagara Falls, so you are prepared for any weather changes.

Is Niagara Falls in Canada or New York?

Niagara Falls is located in both countries because it lies on the border between Canada and the United States. However, activities, dining, accommodations, and shopping vary significantly between the Canadian and American sides.

Do I Need a Passport to Go to Niagara Falls, Canada?

Yes. A Passport (or a Passport Card or Enhanced Driver’s License if coming by land) is required for crossing the border into Canada unless you are age 15 or younger. Please visit the government website for any further details.

The Best River Cruises In North America You Have To Try

Posted: December 11, 2023 | Last updated: December 11, 2023

Rolling on the river

Viking Mississippi Holiday Season cruise, USA

It’s never too early to start planning a Christmas markets cruise, and as much as we love the ones in Germany and Austria, nothing beats a festive float down the Mississippi. Highlights on  this cruise , which snakes from Memphis to New Orleans, include stop-offs at Natchez, whose many historic buildings are festooned with Christmas lights, and Vicksburg, whose independent boutiques are great places to pick up presents. This is also a great cruise for twitchers – a huge number of bird species flock to this stretch of the Mississippi for winter. 

Love this? Follow us on Facebook for more travel inspiration

M.S. Dixie II Lake Tahoe cruise, California, USA

Say hello to one of America’s most spectacular lake cruises. Your mode of transport for this sail across Lake Tahoe will be the M.S Dixie II – the lake’s biggest boat. The sunset dinner cruises are popular with couples, although we recommend the scenic daytime tours, which are a great way to explore North America’s largest alpine lake. This high-altitude body of water spreads into two states (California and Nevada), contains enough water to cover California with 14 inches of water and is deeper than the Empire State Building is tall.  

Le Petit Navire Lachine Canal tour, Québec, Canada

If crowded cruise liners and transatlantic crossings don’t appeal, consider this leisurely sail along Canada’s 14-kilometer Lachine Canal, which slices through the southern section of Montréal, a city famous for its historic architecture. Don’t know your dingle from your dewater? You’ll gain a wonderful insight into the construction of this historic waterway as you pass through its locks, and you’ll also enjoy fantastic views of Montréal’s skyline. Your mode of transport is rather special too – a carbon-neutral, zero-pollution electric propulsion boat. 

American Cruise Lines Alaska Inside Passage cruise, Alaska, USA

Alaska’s Inside Passage is an inland route weaving between islands on the Pacific Northwest coast and along glacier-lined fjords. Inside Passage cruises offer a different perspective on Alaska to coastal cruises, relying on smaller ships to reach more remote ports of call. Highlights of this cruise include the Strait of Georgia, where you’ll sail between Vancouver Island and British Columbia, and the glacier-fed waters of Frederick Sound – a brilliant whale watching spot.

Now check out the fabulous cruising facts you won't believe

Northwest Pioneers Cruise, Oregon and Washington, USA

As much as we love the mighty Mississippi, this brilliant river cruise , which wiggles through Oregon and Washington, is a fantastic reminder that there are plenty of other breathtakingly beautiful waterways to explore. On this adventure, you’ll sail along the Columbia River – the largest in America’s Pacific Northwest – and Snake River, which is the Columbia River’s largest tributary. It’s a great way to see some of America’s most underrated destinations, including the town of Astoria, which is the oldest American settlement west of the Rockies.

American Cruise Lines Puget Sound and San Juan Islands Cruise, Washington, USA

This seven-day cruise provides a brilliant insight into one of America’s most wildlife-rich regions: Washington state’s Puget Sound, America’s second largest estuary; and the San Juan Islands, a cluster of 172 islands and reefs where you’re likely to spot wildlife including whales and eagles. Don’t miss the chance to explore Port Townsend, sandwiched between Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and famous for its Victorian-era architecture. 

Viking America’s Heartland cruise, Upper Mississippi, USA

This is one of the best Mississippi cruises for anyone keen to learn about the people who shaped this part of the US, whether it’s the Norwegians who migrated here during the 1800s or the farmers who made this region one of America’s top culinary destinations. Stops include the Missouri city of St Louis, once known as the Gateway to the West; Hannibal, which was the setting for Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn;  and the Iowan city of Dubuque, home to the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium.

Viking Heart of the Delta cruise, USA

An eight-day cruise between Memphis and New Orleans, Viking’s Heart of the Delta cruise takes in the Mississippi’s best bits, including many listed monuments and buildings. For history buffs, highlights will include St Francisville, where there’s a whopping 140 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and Natchez, which has more listed buildings than any other American city. If you’re short on time, put Stanton Hall, which was built in the 1850s, at the top of your list – this Greek revival-style property is famous for its ornate mirrored parlors.  

James River Batteau Company Batteau River tour, Virginia, USA

Short on time? Opt for this scenic river tour . Your mode of transport for this float along Virginia’s James River will be one of the beautiful wooden boats which have sailed this waterway for years. The two-hour tour along the river, which is Virginia’s longest, is a great way to see its wildlife – bald eagles, river otters and ospreys are regularly spotted. It’s a rather relaxed affair, and passengers are encouraged to cool off with a swim in the river. 

Discover the beloved cruise ships that will never sail again

American Queen Voyages Clarkston to Portland cruise, USA

A brilliant cruise for history fans, this 10-day Snake River and Columbia River cruise starts in Clarkston and finishes in Vancouver, Washington – the route undertaken by explorers Captain Meriwether Lewis and Lieutenant William Clark in the early 1800s. It’s also a route lined with natural wonders, including Columbia Gorge, which slices through the Cascade Mountains, and Idaho’s Hell’s Canyon, which is deeper than the Grand Canyon and can be explored on a high-speed boat ride. The Columbia River stretch is where you’re most likely to see bison, elk and deer too. 

American Queen Voyages Memphis to Nashville cruise, USA

This nine-day Memphis to Nashville   cruise is a fantastic way to check out some of the southern state’s prettiest towns, whether it’s Paducah in Kentucky, famed for its arts and craft museum or Clarksville, Tennessee. The latter is famous for its breweries, distilleries and wineries, while historic sites include the Customs House Museum & Cultural Center, where you can learn about the town’s famous former residents, including Wilma Rudolph – the first American woman to win three gold medals in a single Olympic Games. 

American Queen Voyages Mighty Mississippi Red Wing to New Orleans, USA

Can’t get enough of the Mighty Mississippi? Take a deep dive on  this 16-day cruise between Red Wing and New Orleans. It’s a fantastic way to discover the landscapes which surround America’s second longest river. The Minnesotan city of Winona, for example, is built on a sandbar and dates back to 9,500BC. The excursions on this cruise are fantastic too. Our favorite? In the town of Hannibal, Missouri, you’ll get the chance to make your very own clay pot out of Mississippi mud. 

Adventure Life Rivers of Adventure and Wine cruise, Oregon, USA

Your transport for this food and wine-themed cruise along the Columbia River is the Wilderness Legacy, a beautiful vessel designed to resemble a Victorian steamer. During the cruise, which starts and finishes in Portland, you’ll visit some of Oregon’s most important historical sites, but it’s the food and wine-themed stops that really set it apart. In the Hood River Valley, you can sign up for cycle rides between local vineyards, and in the Washington city of Walla Walla, you’ll visit a local chocolatier, olive oil producer, and brewery.  

American Queen Voyages St Louis to Cincinnati cruise, USA

Get more bang for your buck from your river cruise by signing up for American Queen Voyages’ exploration of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers. Stop-offs on this spectacular paddle steamer cruise include the Illinois city of Alton, which has a rich history and became a base for abolitionists in the 1800s, and Henderson in Kentucky. It’s another cruise with fantastic excursions, our favorite of which is a jet boat ride along a stunning section of the Ohio River near Carrollton, Kentucky. 

American Queen Voyages Montréal to Detroit cruise, Canada and US

An 11-day cruise between two very different cities, this Montréal to Detroit sailing provides plenty of opportunities for urban explorations – you’ll visit Montréal, Québec City , Toronto and Cleveland, as well as quaint riverside towns such as Gananoque, in the heart of the Thousand Islands archipelago in Eastern Ontario. This particular cruise offers fantastic value for money – the cost of your sailing covers a wide range of excursions, including visits to Toronto’s CN Tower and catamaran tours of Niagara Falls.

St Lawrence Cruise Lines, Canada’s Capital North cruise, Canada

This Ottawa River cruise is a great way to explore two very different regions of Canada – more specifically Ontario and Québec. The six-day sailing is packed with fascinating stop-offs, including the wildlife-filled Thousand Islands, which straddle the border between America and Canada, and Fort Wellington, built in 1812. Love a lock? For many passengers, the highlight of this river cruise is the famous Carillion Lock, an enormous 182-tonne structure which has a flow rate of 2,000 cubic meters of water per second. 

Pearl Seas Cruises Great Lakes and Georgian Bay cruise, US and Canada

Sign up for this 11-night cruise from Toronto to Milwaukee and you’ll get the chance to see four of the most beautiful Great Lakes, with time to visit attractions lining the route. For many, the highlight is Georgian Bay, where 30,000 islands form the world’s largest freshwater archipelago, and where you’ll be able to check out destinations such as traffic-free Mackinac Island by horse-drawn buggy. There are plenty of big hitters too – you’ll take a guided tour of Niagara Falls and visit the legendary Henry Ford Museum in Windsor, Ontario. 

Le Boat Rideau Canal Cruise, Ontario, Canada

For something completely different, consider hiring your own river boat for a bespoke exploration of Canada’s Rideau Canal. The waterway, which is the oldest continuously-operated canal system in North America, is regarded as one of the world’s greatest engineering feats, and the UNESCO-listed canal is lined with historic sites. Your mode of transport? A luxury river boat kitted out with a kitchen, spacious bathrooms and sun deck. They’re surprisingly easy to drive too, thanks to powerful thrusters which make navigating locks a breeze. 

American Cruise Lines Hudson River cruise, New York, USA

This New York round trip  takes in the Hudson River’s best bits, busting the myth that its most spectacular section weaves through the Big Apple. You’ll explore it on the American Star, which has room for just 100 passengers and offers several stop-offs in the beautiful Catskill Mountains area. The cruise is especially popular with fans of architecture, who come to admire historic buildings such as the Vanderbilt Mansion (the former home of Franklin D. Roosevelt). 

Viking Great River cruise, Mississippi, USA

This is another fantastic option for history buffs – a Mississippi River cruise filled with visits to some of America’s most important historic sites. In Red Wing, Minnesota, you’ll learn how New Englanders joined forces with German and Irish migrants to farm the fertile landscape, and in Burlington, Iowa, you’ll discover how the arrival of both steamboats and the railroad transformed this once sleepy town, filled with listed buildings. Don’t miss the chance to stand under the famous Gateway Arch in St Louis, Missouri – a crossroads for nineteenth-century explorers. 

US Mailboat Cruises of Lake Winnipesaukee on the M/V Sophie C, New Hampshire, USA

Another fantastic option for anyone short on time, this cruise takes place on America’s oldest floating post office – a beautiful vessel which launched on Lake Winnipesaukee in 1945. During the two-hour cruise, you’ll visit several of Lake Winnipesaukee’s 253 islands, many of which were once home to indigenous people such as the Pennacooks. Don’t forget to send a postcard home – you’ll be able to post it on the boat, complete with an M/V Sophie C stamp.
