niagara falls with teens for 3 days
 

May plan a long weekend holiday to Niagara falls with 3 teens 14, 15, and 16. Any suggestions? We went about 6 years ago and they had a ball, but you know how kids are. Will drive any suggestions for accomdodations would be helpful as well.

Do the usual:

Maid of the Mist
Cave of the Winds
Journey Behind the Falls
Whirlpool Aero Car
Whirlpool Jet Boats

Then have the kids pick from the rest. You can find the lists here (including information on passes):

If you buy the Great Gorge Pass, buy it here to save a few bucks:

Good outlet mall on the us side-about 10 minutes from the falls. depnding on the weekend, lots of different festivals all summer long on US side in Buffalo and surrounding areas. If they like theatre-you are less than 30 minutes away from Niagara on the Lake and the Shaw Festival. NOTH is a neat town to wonder about-cure shops, galleries. beautiful view of Lake Ontario.

DO NOT miss the Whirlpool JetBoats... teens love that attraction... Embassy Suites seems to be the hot property, but also check out pricing at the Oakes Hotel next door...same view...

Thanks everything sounds great, sounds like more than enough for a long weekend.

one more thing-the butterfly conservatory-between NF and Niagara on the lake. really beautiful butterflies flying all over. they may land on you if you are wearing bright colors. also, lots of wineries in the area, but the kids cant indulge-just watch you or drink fruit juice.

Don't miss the Jet Boat Tours just outside Niagara On the Lake. They were awsome! I think about $60 USD per person, but well worth it! Google Jet Boat Tours in Niagara for more details.

And, the newest attraction ... Niagara's Fury! Looks like fun! Book this early as it is very popular and will sell out most days.
