Our recent trip to the Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory was truly magical! Our tickets for…read moreadmission were included with our Wonder Pass Plus purchase. This attraction doesn't require an appointment, but it is a longer bus ride from the other Niagara Parks attractions, so be sure to plan for that. We used our passes to take the WEGO bus from Niagara Takes Flight to the butterfly conservatory. Rain was in the forecast, so this is a nice, indoor option. The conservatory itself houses so many butterflies, and they tell you upon entry that it is thought to be lucky if a blue one lands on you, so everyone inside is doing their best to attract a blue butterfly. Several landed on us, and while you don't want to move for fear of them flying away, you also want to get your companion's attention to snap that perfect pic! We had lots of fun even though the temperature is kept very warm and the space was crowded. Clearly, everyone had the same rainy-day activity planned. My only complaint comes from when I asked about re-entry. I was told that we could leave the conservatory, but not the building. We wanted to visit the cafe and grab a bite to eat or something to drink and perhaps return once the crowd had thinned out a bit, but that is not permitted. We were told that we could step out to cool down in the gift shop or lobby area and then return through the same entrance that we used when we arrived. The volunteer got on her walkie to tell someone that we'd be coming back in, so I'm not even sure that this is normally permitted. Overall, it was a fun and new experience for us. The staff was kind and the conservatory is beautiful. There's also a botanical garden and at least one beehive there, but we didn't get to explore the outdoor areas due to the rain.

We bought a pass where you could choose 3 different attractions and save some dollars as well. This was one of the attraction that we all enjoyed doing! It felt scary coming inside because of the weird lighting (as shown in the picture) they also have some weird looking mannequins inside the mirror. Lol. I don't know. Maybe I'm just a scaredy cat because my 9 year old nephew was totally ok with it. I think it was just me who felt scared about the whole experience? Lol. It was not too crowded inside although you'll bump into a few people who are also trying to find their way out of the maze. It was a fun activity for the whole family! It's also nice that it was cool inside the mirror maze. I recommend this place for adults and kids!

There are lockers you can rent, prices vary depending on size and it's quite pricey in my opinion. There are tables and chairs inside the waterpark so you can consider just leaving your belongings there which many people do. One of the downside is they only have 2 showers in the women's changeroom - it was lucky that we didn't need to wait because we left earlier than the rest of the crowd before they close. For such a big waterpark they should consider having more showers available. But overall, my family and I had a great time and we would consider returning again.

It starts with sort of a museum, which we mostly skipped. We were able to use the clean restrooms and then begin our journey into the bird sanctuary. The birds roam free and there's actually cute little mice in the building. I think they're prey for the birds but couldn't be certain. There's all kind of birds here and they're allowed to fly around and roam inside the big habitat . My kiddos fed the lorikeets and they had a blast doing that!

The Kingdom starts with some rooms about Niagara Falls history and some daredevils going down the falls.

They apparently bite (signs everywhere) and were very loud. The bottom floor is somewhat like a tropical forest with many birds. Very colorful ones. The tour took us about an hour.

Wow! Who doesn't love a good tree-house? Now I don't know about you but when I think of a…read moretree-house I think of a simple wooden structure including a floor, some walls and maybe a ceiling in a tree with a simple ladder leading up to it. Well if that's what you are picturing then walking up to this place will feel like stepping into a dream. The tree house itself is incredible full of pure imagination and uniqueness. From a real old car, to a princess castle to a wizard's den, to a real single person airplane that used to fly in the sky this tree house has something for everyone. The people that imagined and made this thing are incredible. They are happy to share their story, their plans, and their backyard with everyone. It is definitely worth it to spend some time checking out their tree house and hearing their story. The tree house is built in their backyard so visit their facebook page to see the dates and times that they are inviting people to come. They are quick to message you back via facebook as well. They invite people freely into their house Young, old, young at heart, this place provides a great escape from reality and a fun place to spend some time.

But the NF Adventure Park is an underrated and largely unheralded fun park right near the heart of the Falls, within spitting distance of the Falls themselves (if you are a spitter). They have zip-lines which are thrilling, and have an amazing view of the mist and the whole area, and after what is inevitably a long wait, you will get to do as much as you like, as many times as you like, and it's a hell of a lot of fun. It was probably the most fun that my German family members had on their trip to WNY, while the older folk enjoyed the Falls, the kids thought this was unforgettable and are already talking about going again when we come back. I'd like to take some of my Buffalo friends here because none of them seem to have heard of it. It's slightly pricey, but I suppose everything is these days.

I went here with my sister using the Groupon deal. I would recommend calling ahead for the time…read moreslots since they do things in shifts to ensure everyone is trained properly and that the equipment doesn't get too crowded. We had to wait 45 minutes for the next slot (no big deal). We came back and were promptly helped. The staff puts you in the harnesses and trains you on the equipment. Then you are free to climb on the equipment. There are two course levels to help decrease overcrowding. We went on a Thursday night and there were maybe 10 people (mostly kids) doing zip lines and 5 people (all adults) doing the ropes course. The staff there is absolutely fabulous. They were always keeping an eye on people for safety but never call out to you, rush you or pressure you in any way. You are truly free to roam around the course and to take as much time as you need. Simply be courteous to others on their course. Every staff member was so friendly and helpful. Safety is their #1 priority. The equipment was clean and set up across steel beams and you are roped in twice to each safety line (which I also used as a cheat line across some obstacles.) I would highly recommend this place and look forward to going back and trying the third level next time I'm home. You don't need to be in great shape, just be aware of safety measures, be kind and you'll have a great time (unless you are afraid of heights). A couple things to keep in mind: the lot right in front of them is free if you are visiting them. You have to weigh 265lbs or less to use the courses. Their prices are really reasonable. Looks like it's three zips for $10 and an hour on the ropes course is $18 but check their site for the most updated pricing.
