We wanted to ride at night to see the lights on the Falls. It was a rainy kind of day but it was…read morestill nice out. We bought tickets at the kiosk there were some other options for other places on Clifton Hill. We opted to just get a ticket for the Wheel. There was a bit of a line, but the wait was minimal. The nice thing with it being a little busy, they still let you just be with your party. They didn't mix others in your pod for the ride. It is a climate control so you won't be cold or hot depending on the day. The view is great but on a rainy day I couldn't get any great pictures of the falls even though we would see them. Great experience for anyone young or old. And you get to see all of clifton hill as well.

Confederation Park has been a part of my life pretty much forever. I've been coming here since I…read morewas a kid, and it's still one of my favourite spots in Hamilton to just get outside and enjoy the waterfront. It's a great place for walking, biking, rollerblading, or just relaxing by the water. On a really clear day, you can even see CN Tower and the Toronto skyline across the lake, which is always cool to spot. Adventure Village is a cute little mini park area nearby that kids will especially love, and while Wild Water Works is just okay in my opinion, it's still a fun option on a hot summer day. One of the true classics here is Hutch's on the Beach. We've been going there for years for fries, fish & chips, and ice cream...though it can get SUPER packed during peak times. There are also some other nice-looking spots like Barangas on the Beach that add to the area's appeal. Unfortunately, over the last few years the park has definitely become more crowded and more litter-filled, which is disappointing. But despite that, I've still always enjoyed my time here and have a lot of nostalgia attached to this place.

We were here for a small running event on the long weekend. My husband did an 8K run. It was around…read morethe beach. The weather was a bit chilly, it told him about 28 mins to finish and age group 2nd place award. There was fruit for him afterward. The beach was beautiful, people around were so nice that helped us to take some pictures. The beach line was long, I felt I had burnt lots of calories. Residents around could run, bike, or swim there. This is a great place to relax in summer.

I would drive down to Barangas (for a fancy meal) or the ice cream place (for a cheap meal) instead. We did the bumper cars, outdoor laser tag, and miniature golf at Adventure Village. They were OK. Nothing to write home about. Our 8-year old daughter did the rock climbing wall too. The mini golf course was pretty short and the holes were not that impressive. The bumper cars were actually pretty fun despite the small area. The laser tag course was pretty big and they tell you who "won" at the end. Tip: You win by having the most hits, not by not getting hit.

However, everything was in working order and the attractions were reasonably priced. We didn't hit the concession stand, so I can't speak to that quality or pricing. The employees were engaged and seemed to enjoy being there. We've been to too many places similar to this where everyone working seemed to be a surly kid-hater. This place was NOT like that.

If you're an adrenaline junkie, you have to zip line by the Falls. My friend I debated for a few…read morehours if it was something we wanted to do and I'm so glad we did it. It is a little on the pricey side. When we went it was around $60 a person but we thought "when are we going to do this again?". We did have to wait about 30 minutes before it was our turn but it could have been a lot worse. The ride down is breathtaking. You see the best view of Niagara Falls and it's kind of cool having people watch you have the time of your life. They do take photos of you going down the zip line. So if you want a souvenir, they have you covered.

It's late June, and gorgeous weather for this sport!…read more Although the company recommends online reservations, even at our nine a.m. ticket time there was an additional two hour wait. If you can afford it, I'd suggest buying the "jump to the head of the line" tickets - these are green wristbands instead of the regular ones, which are blue. There's a weigh-in at the place where wristbands are put on you; this is also where you are given a blue safety helmet. For the next 90 minutes you're at the top of the tower, waiting for your turn to be strapped into a harness that becomes your seat and safety lines. 90's pop hits on the overhead, and playing, "name that language" help pass the time. And then there's the spectacular view. Just before the gate is opened, instructions are given. Listen carefully to them: The stop *will* be sudden, and it will be scary, until you realize, "Oh, I was told about this". The trip itself? I laughed all the way down, and leaned far back, which made me travel much faster than the other three people on parallel lines. Once unharnessed and out the other side, it's very much an, "exit through the gift shop" situation: There's no other way to leave but through the media center, and multiple people tried to prompt us to buy videos or photos we hadn't requested. Which is fine, but I mention it. Lastly, as a courtesy to all guests, chauffeured golf carts bring everyone up the steep trail to Victoria Park. I imagine in the wilting heat of July and August, this would be especially welcome. I strongly recommend this activity, especially as a family outing, or as a date.

It's fun, safe, and quick, and the people are great. That said, I can't give it 5. I paid extra to get the photo/video package. It's a little misleading. They take 3 pictures at the end, and you can only pick 1 to use/keep. The video is mostly you coming and leaving, and passing various checkpoints. I was expecting a little more, like a camera mounted in front of you so the whole thing is taped, and more pictures than 1. That said, do the zipline, do it early for the discount, but pass on the extra package.

I ma a huge rock hound, crystal nut- not just because my name is Crystal, I've loved picking up shiny rocks since I was a small child. Quartz and mica are two I remember finding often as a child. Here- they had a huge inventory of various raw and polished stones, fossils, animal bones and such. And that was just in the Nature Exchange! The park is wonderful too, plenty of trails to lead you down by the river, wonderful trees, great overlook viewpoints throughout. As part of the Niagra Parks system, they have bike trails too. We stopped here twice, once to explore and once for me to pop back in with my photos and pick out a raw piece of turquoise! A birthday win for me! Shout out to the young lady who talked to me in the morning, she wasn't there when I returned- and I am pretty sure the 2 young men thought I was crazy (I am), but they were all very helpful for this big kid out playing in nature!
